@ The Ginsue: Sure, The door (Browning) 2k, construction company to build wall and set door 5500$, shelves,cabinets,lights, paint and other finishing stuff 1500$, so about 9k total.

I know you can do it cheaper than that, but I think that is every real man's dream. Talk about a man cave, right?

You may think 9k is a lot(ok,it is) BUT, I can justify the cost with one gun. As for the OP, you gotta start some where. Locking up your stuff is a gun owner responsibility, so good for him. I started with a Walmart gun cabinet.@ HoneyBadger, I have some "Haters" because of my gun vault.

They hate because they are jealous like me!

I am renting a house right now, but when we decide to buy some land and build, it will certainly have a walk-in vault/shelter.

I was looking at the Yukon from Browning at Sportsmans. It is the most solid safe I could find out there. Has great ratings. It goes for around $900 though. Since I got my FFL I decided against it and build at 250sq ft vault instead for about the same price. Now I am not limited and I still feel very secure considering I build secure rooms for a living.

So you say you built your vault for about $900, but they you say you used a $2,800+ door?

Bought mine at CO Safe Outlet. Just an entry level safe. Supposedly has capacity for 22 long guns or 11 lg plus shelves. Thinking bout half that at best but has nice interior and haven't filled it...YET! Pm me if interested in their contact info

I think I've mentioned Zannoti Armor before. At one point I thought I'd never move again but life happened and I've moved 3 times.

A modular safe is great. It is easy to move and install. You don't have to hire strangers and your neighbors don't even need to know you have a gunsafe.

Cost?

Cost?

Damfino. I bought my last one about 15 years ago. It was comparable to similar safes. They offer a lot of options. The modular feature makes for cheaper shipping. It can be flat on a pallet.
