Me too- all the other ideas presented here involve too much tinkering for me. All my side-by-sides are stored muzzle up, and my favorites, the LC Smiths- no problems with excess oil migrating down into the stock heads- Not an issue with the Model 12's however- Go to any large gun club that offers the various shotgunning clays games- and look at both the gun racks inside the club house, on the porches, and at the skeet, trap and clays shooting areas- how many shooters rack their shotgun(s) butt up to the sky??
