Any suggestions for a pistol rack for my safe, that can hold 3 handguns with trigger locks. I tried one that fit in my safe. But the pistols don’t fit well on the rack with the trigger locks.

Remove the trigger locks, no one without a firearms license should be allowed to access your safe. It's actually safer to you being the only one with access to your gun safes.

Trigger locks are required for transportation to and from the gun range. Pistols locked up in a gun safe do not require a trigger lock.

Thanks for this, I’ve been storing my pistols in my safe with trigger locks for over 20 years. I’m the only one in there too. Is that the same rules for the AR’s.

If you're referring to ARs that are now prohibited due to the OICs, they maintain the same storage requirements as their previous designation as long as the amnesty is still active.
 
Also we're trained to check clear every time we pick up a firearm, for example taking the firearm from the transport case to put into the safe, or taking it out of the safe to transport to the range again next trip, and you can't check properly with the trigger lock in the way. So it's far less hassle to for it to only wear a lock while it's in the portable case where it's required.

I use these over / under wire racks, they work well. There are a variety of types, over, under, both, etc. Amazon, etc.

I have a Liberty safe with a factory fabric coated sheet metal covering the inside of the safe's door. I drilled 12 small holes in it just big enough to take an S hook, giving me two vertical columns that can hold 12 handguns by the trigger guard in otherwise unused space. Horizontal spacing is 6 inches from either outside edge and vertical spacing is 8 inches apart.

I kinda like the slide~loop~? on the top pistol, what's the story there?
1911's aren't bad, though spring stout, but pistols like Jerico's and CZ's are a real pain to slingshot as there is so little slide available for purchase, the loop makes sense.

I agree, but I can easily pop open the cylinders on my revolvers with a trigger lock on.

Your mileage may vary with action type. Bolt rifles are another good one for checking even with a lock on. But even then, locks bulk them out and make it harder to fit as many firearms side-by-side. And maybe only having to own enough locks for the maximum number of guns you can lift and haul along on a range trip is attractive too?

That is a Tandemkross Halo Charging Ring on a heavily modified Ruger Mark IV 22/45 Lite.
