Gun safe?

[1nderbeard]

You should ask what brand and where to buy as some look good but can be opened in just minutes. Some are light enough even loaded with 20 guns that they can be removed from your house with a hand truck. I have a Browning made in the 60's that the weight and thickness of the steel used is almost double what is used today and I can change the combination with out a lock smith.

Not if you bolt it to the floor, assuming there are holes in the bottom of the safe.

mine is rated for 80 guns, ive got about 80 in it (including handguns) but they're stacked in like cordwood!

If I don't have scopes I could get about 2/3 of the listed capacity. With scopes, and doing my best tetris work, it's about half at most.

I agree with whoever said safes seem to hold about half of the rated capacity. Sure you can cram them in but what a serious PITA. So my question is has anyone scrapped the supplied gun racks/shelving to make better us of the space?

I actutally picked up some these:

They are a bit pricey, but for me, they really helped a lot. Sure makes getting guns in the back out so much easier.
