Long Gun Safe... what do you guys use?

(1/6) > >>

Dark Helmet:
I need to get something as I seem to be accumulating guns of my own and I usually have one or two of dad's I'm working on at any one time...

I really like the look/feel of the liberty safes, but they seem a bit proud of the product....

fire-rating is important as I'd like to store documents in there too...

thoughts?

skydve76:
I consider a gun safe to be way to keep out of the reach of kids.  So for me a wooden one with glass is suffice.

Now if you're trying to keep them being stolen by older kids or thieves, thats different,  However I consider my house my gun safe.

If the only reason you want a safe is for documents, then just get a small fire proof safe and save thousands.

I would like a big safe like that but I can't justify the cost, it cost more than all my guns combined.

I've been looking at the Zanotti safes.  They're modular so you can take them apart and move them yourself.  That would be a nice feature.  Getting a full size safe into my basement would be tough.

what to avoid:



You want the BEST safe for the money?


Sturdy safe beats all.  Hands down.  They will cost a little more, but they are worth it.

since i don't have kids or live in a bad neighborhood i have a cheap, non-fireproof safe.  its behind locked doors and somewhat hidden in my house and surrounded by concrete walls.  i keep my important documents in a small fire/water proof safe somewhere else.

i think it all depends on how much you want to spend and how much protection you want (theft/fire/etc).  make sure you keep it dry so your guns won't rust.  i have a rechargeable silica gel stuff.

if i had the money and a walk out basement, i would get a large, heavy fire/water proof safe which would be bolted to the floor and wall.  better safe than sorry.
