May be tied in with a [[Lock and Load Montage]]. Compare and contrast [[Hyperspace Arsenal]] and [[Extended Disarming]]. Usually seen in a [[Survivalist Stash]] as part of the supplies. Can overlap with [[Gun Porn]].

* ''[[Lord of War]]'' has a small one of these inside Yuri's shipping container, right next to the multiple passports.
* [[The Matrix|"Guns. Lots of guns."]] This one is more like a ''[[Up to Eleven|mall]]'' of weapons.
** And again in ''Reloaded'', when Neo and the Merovingian's hitmen start looting the wall of weapons in his castle during their fight.
* ''[[Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon]]''. Yu Shu Lien is using a [[Wall of Weapons]] to try to defeat Jen Yu who wields the legendary sword Green Destiny.
* ''[[Terminator]] 2'' has Sarah Connor with an underground cache of weapons hidden in the desert. Not that we need convincing she's a [[Badass]] by this point in the film. John Connor mentions this as well--"One thing about my mom... she always plans ahead."
** ''Terminator 3'' has Sarah Connor with a weapon cache IN HER COFFIN (of course, SHE isn't in it.) Of course that probably moves into [[Crazy Prepared]] territory.
Line 140:
* ''[[Diablo]] II'' has a wall of weapons - [[Memetic Mutation|in Hell!]] They're arranged nicely over the fireplace in the Heaven-owned Pandemonium Fortress. Why your character can't pluck one of them off the wall is never asked, [[Gameplay and Story Segregation|of course]]...
** Becuase you'd be ''stealing from the forces of Heaven'', maybe?
* In the MMORPG Star Wars Galaxies (Before [[They Changed It, Now It Sucks]]), Weaponsmiths had a tendency to advertise in their houses/shops by creating walls of guns (and swords).
* In ''[[The Godfather (Video Game)|The Godfather]]'' game, the safehouses you purchase will contain a few of each gun type lying neatly around.
* Runescape has a minor example. Kal'Ger the Warmonger, a demon and leader of all the demons in Bilrach's dungeons, has five weapons on the walls of his room. And he goes through all of them as you and your team, if any, work on defeating him. It isn't exactly a wall full of weapons, but due to their size and the room's small size, more probably wouldn't fit in.
