Secure Wall Mount and Rail Systems

I own a Mossy 500 Tactical (Magpul Edition) and have installed the Black Aces Tactical Rail system to be used with iron sights and a red dot. I was looking at the easiest access/safest system to use and came across the Shot Lock Solo Vault. Mounting a shotgun onto the wall in this manner seems like a pretty good option for my use. Still safe from my teenage boys and their friends, yet quickly accessible when/if needed. Only problem is it won't fit due to the rail system. Does anyone have any ideas for an alternative? I'm currently using a trigger lock (combo style) and just keeping it in a cabinet. Would prefer NOT to use a vault as this is the only weapon I own currently.

Thanks in advance!
 
If it's in the budget, there are some specialty cabinet makers that will make you a bookcase, headboard, entertainment center, etc. with hidden compartments that are popular with many folks. If you have a cabinet maker in your area he could probably build you something that would work. They usually will have hidden latches or biometric/magnetic key locks.
 
Had not thought about that. Good idea! Thanks.

I do some woodworking and have made a few hidden compartment pieces for my own use. Not that hard to do, so shop around. Since you only have the one gun, here's a design that made interest you:
