Suggestions for mounting an antique rifle?

I've inherited an old 1890s Winchester rifle that my Dad acquired years ago. I'd like to mount it on my office wall with a rack appropriate for the gun, with a Western theme. Any suggestions on where to look on the interwebs or locally in the DFW area?

Not actual gun but pretty close:

I have a shitload of rusty (or soon to be) Texas stars. Probably about 3" at their widest, maybe 4". I could weld a lag bolt onto them and you could take two and twist them into a wall for a 2-point mount with a little Texas accent. I have a model 94 myself somewhere.

I wouldn't ask for any money if you wanted to do something like that.

Otherwise, you could just use hooks and not any adornment.
