Airsoft Medal Hanger

Milsim weekends leave more than photographs

Event medals, team awards, tokens from games that ran two days in the rain. Airsoft players keep them for the same reason they keep patches — they are proof of having been there — and then store them the same way, which is to say badly.

A steel display next to the loadout wall is the natural home. AISI 304, cut in one piece, mounted on standoffs, and heavy enough that it reads as equipment rather than decoration.

Event tokens are frequently non-standard — thick discs, coins on paracord, awards that are not really medals. The rail takes anything with a loop, which a hook rack often will not.

The same medal display is cut in several widths. Buying as a gift? Count what is already in the drawer and go one size up.

Size & capacity

Not sure which size?

Airsoft awards come a handful a year. The 45 cm size suits most players; teams buying for a shared space should go wider. This design is produced from 45 cm upwards — the cut-out detail doesn't hold at smaller widths.

Why stainless steel, not painted sheet metal

The medal hanger is cut from AISI 304 stainless steel (V2A / 1.4301), 2.5-3 mm thick depending on the width. Not painted sheet metal that chips at the first knock.

And it holds a continuous rail, not hooks. Twelve hooks means twelve medals. A rail holds as many as fit.

Putting it up

The standoffs hold it a centimetre off the wall, which is what gives the shadow line. Template, screws and plugs are included; you need a drill and ten minutes.

After the first one is full

They're made to pair. A second unit sits flush against the first and the run reads as a single display. The widest version holds up to 110 medals across three rails.
