On this particular subject,everybody doesnt want to talk about the elephant in the room.Its name is gravity.Gun cabinets,gun safes are designed for barrels up and stocks down.Well,that is just fine except the oil from where ever its placed on the barrel,action, or any metal parts is gonna run down and over a period of years soak into the stock creating these problems.Safe manufactures ought to reconfigure to accomodate this.Call me crazy or whatever you like,I have no stock problems unless I buy them.This applies to all long guns!
