I was hoping for a fire-resistant safe and something that will slow a burglar down. My collection just went from a pistol and a rifle to four pistols, three shotguns, and four rifles...and I have a feeling it may be experiencing another growth spurt in the near future.

I feel your pain Fly, My family bought me a 14 place unit for Christmas, and I picked up and old 8 gun unit for cheap for to stack ammo in. Well since then, the 14 gun unit is almost full, looking into a smaller unit at big-lots or Harbor Freight for the piss dolls. Ammo will have to go back into the wardrobe unit that started out as my first gun cabinet. ( yeah, I'm a cheap-a$$, but it gets it done) As I live in a 'secure' apartment, it would take someone awhile to get to it all. If/when I'm back in a house, I will be looking into a more secure unit.
A thought I had once: Legend goes, that you can store important documents in your freezer and in the event of a fire, they will be safe. Soooo.... Why couldn't a feller procure a nonfunctioning upright freezer, rip out the shelves, build some brackets, secure the door ( some even already have a lock), stick it in the pantry or kitchen and WALLA a true, honest to God, Redneck, stealthy, fire resistant, gun safe.
