    What are you talking about? I see TONS of room for additional firearms! What I wouldn't give to have that much space available in mine. lol

    And safe capacity seems to be measured in bolt guns with no optics. For modern sporting rifles you need to cut the capacity to a third to account for optics and grips.

    Yea, those pistol hangers will barely hold up a full size 1911 with a full extended round magazine... Surely can't use them for anything with an optic mounted. Granted, I only have one each of those.

I think I’ll get another medium sized safe because it’s a lot easier to move two medium ones vs one giant one.

    Try 5 of them. Hypothetically, of course.


    I suggest one sticks with what they have. An open space in the safe. is an invitation to spend ones $$ , doing their part of course. To KAIGA

    Maybe it's the brand of hanger you have. I have some and they handle a full size 1911 or model 29 without any issue. I think mine were US made and 2x the price, though.

    Yeah mine holds my P228 with a loaded mag, it just swivels left/right very easily and sometimes that makes it tricky to place the guns on them in the dark lol.

    No lights on your guns, or in the safe?

    Only one of my AR uppers has a light on it, and one light in the safe that's above the shelf, making it hard to spot those rods in the shadows.
