It isn't that the colors are all that washed out...it's just that the colors of the brick and whatever that is you have them laying on that's making them look a bit washed out. There isn't enough contrast between the guns and the cloth they're laying on. But speaking frankly, if I had that collection, their looking "washed out" in a photograph would be the last thing on my mind.

But if you photograph them again for display or record-keeping purposes, I'd suggest using a solid color background. You can go someplace like an art supply store or Hobby Lobby and pick up a couple of sheets of 3x4 (or larger) black or white foamcore for less than ten bucks.
