I prefer a dial over a keypad, needs a good fire rating too.
Whattya know, I'm not alone on the dial thing!
Not only am I afraid of the electronics failing in some "it's permanently locked" mode, but as the keypad wears, it gives away hints as to the combo - unless you change it frequently, which has its own set of problems.

YOU are the first responder. Police, fire and medical are SECOND responders.
When seconds count, the police are mere minutes away...
Gun registration is gun confiscation in slow motion.

Key pads are probably fine for a single gun "quick access" bedroom container, but definitely not for your main secure storage- I use dials or keys for those.
