Hello DW fans.  Looking to acquire a display box for this set.   Anyone know if a vendor or craftsman that could assist?   Odd size obviously with about 24x8" of display needed.    TIA  Jeff

Find a local cabinet maker.   The best affordable option is to have short barrel on the gun and the long barrel above or below in the display case.

But those of us who own 15"ers don't know what affordable is.

Are you looking for a case like the pacs come in? I can find one that your gun will fit in and custom make the foam and felt for you gun with grips and extra barrels. Finding a case that's right will take a little time but I have seen some before out there that are perfect for longet guns. I found one for a guy who wanted a thompson contender case and within a couple of weeks I found one and then I did the custom work on the inside. Here are a couple of pics of cases I just finished for Dan Guys one was custom for his scope on the gun. Last pic is a layout i'm doing for this Dan with a 44 mag 8VH on top and below a 445 6VH and still had stace for an extra barrel. IMG_4502.JPGImage Enlarger

I had a similar issue with displaying some of my collectibles, and I reached out to a local craftsman who specializes in custom display cases. If you're not finding anything off the shelf, that's definitely a good route to go. I also found some options through places like Liberty Safe, which has a few display cases designed for firearms, but I think you could adapt something like that for your collection. I’ve been really happy with how mine turned out, and the craftsmanship was top-notch without being overly expensive.

You may have seen my case that fits a 15 inch barrel. It's a beauty! I make them in yellow felt or you can do the two tone tool box foam. Screenshot-2024-11-11-7.05.40-PM.pngImage Enlarger

Jeff hasn't been back to the forum since the day after he posted this request over a year ago.....I'd suggest contacting him by PM, and if anyone needs info. on a case maker that makes display cases very reasonably, shoot me a pm.
