Default Rifle Storage

Hey guys, im in a bind here. The place I've just moved doesn't allow firearms to be stored in the house, (roommates are anti-gun). I was wondering if anyone here knows of any lockers that can be rented to store a few rifles in? Maybe at a range or something? Thoughts?

Did you know that before you moved in?


If you have a shooting friend nearby that should be you're first option

If you share your location and how many guns you need stored Im sure you would have no trouble finding someone to help you out I know I would if someone was close to me and needed a hand storing.

but like others said I would find a new place to live or different roomates first if it was me who wants to be surrounded by paranoid yuppies.

Easy,
Do it anyways.
The less people that know you have it, the better anyways,
They can't discriminate against your hobbies, you don't say they cant bring in hockey sticks or paint brushes,
Get a discreet locking case,
and clear room in your closet or under the bed.

Agreed.

Tell the ones you have to move back to whatever Liberal stronghold they came from.

Unless it says so in your lease agreement, I would have a talk with the roommates. The short version being, they need to get over it. I had a roommate who didn't like alcohol, that didn't mean I couldn't keep beer in the fridge and a bottle of rum in my room.

Buy an old guitar case that can lock, and stick it in there! As long as its legally stored and your contract doesn't say anything about guns, then what they don't know won't hurt em! For all they know, you're going for guitar lessons, not to the gun range!
