$6 bucks for a 4x4 1/4 inch thick sheet of pegboard at Menards, 9 piece anchor pack is $3.48. Problem is its not metal, think it will be ok?

For $4 I would pick up a pack and test it with a bookbag. Add books until its about the same weight, then add a couple more and test it out for a week.

Not many, half dozen. I am not so worried about burglaries where I am, if I am not here close friends and landlord keep an eye on the place, and renters insurance covers me either way. Gun safe will be happening, post wedding, maybe with wedding money if I can convince my old lady.

Be sure to check the coverage for firearms in your renter's insurance package. Many homeowners' coverage is just $1,500-2,500. You may have a good policy or you may be bitterly surprised.

Well the pegboard wall is going up tomorrow. May paint the board though, trying to decide white to match the walls, or black or OD with the opposite color highlighting it.

Another thing to consider with insurance policies is accessories and ammo. My coverage tops put at $10k, but that covers every firearm related thing in the house, from reloading supplies to accessories, even the safe. It is more than enough for me, but if it was lower, it might not, and when I got the policy I didnt even consider accessories and things like reloading equipment. Thankfully I have a good insurance agent who went through everything with me.
