I think I am going to go the route of buying a bunch of blankets, and wrapping my rifles in them, but might as well start a thread and see if anyone has any better ideas.
Long distance move.
I have the pistols all wrapped in shipping foam and will be locking them in a tote: Bought this one.
Long guns: I started wrapping them in the same foam as the handguns, which will prevent from scratching, but I really don't my optics to get knocked around. There is around 70 long guns, so buying plano rifle cases for all isn't practical. I read somewhere to use moving blankets and then ratchet straps to keep them together and reduce movement. Doing 5 or so to a bundle. I tossed the idea around of making crates for shipment. But that lasted about 5 minutes once I realized how much room in the truck they will take up.
