    Default gun safes?

    ok well about 2 years ago i had a gun safe stolen from my home in longmont. well yeah they got every damn gun i owned it was kind of my fault for not having the safe bolted down, i assumed it was to heavy to move with every thing in side of it . the police did find the safe with the top cut off and all the contents removed. they also got my reloading stuff, witch i need to replace when i get moved, if any one knows of a good deal there it would be nice.

    so my question is this, what kind of safe is a good safe? i know i do not want a stack on, but i can not afford a $1000 safe either. i have about $400 to spend and i want to get something that will be big enough so all my guns are not cramped and getting scratched every time i pull one out. digital key pad or a regular combination? also is there any where i should look in to when i get moved down to the springs in 2 weeks for a safe? is there a better brand than another one, like pro vault vs remington. i know $400 is not much to buy protection for my guns but i did just buy a house and am getting ready to pay for a move.

    thanks, cant wait to get move out there...

    ps/ not sure where this tread should go.

    There's a cool function on this forum called search or advanced search. There's more than enough info to answer your question.

    Wow what kind of safe did you have that they were able to move entire contents of??


    Find a safe that has non exposed hinges and as many dead bolts as possible. Again those are just deterants and if someone had enough time to carry your safe out they will get into the safe.


    People will prob cringe when I say this buy find a place that will finance your safe purchase interest free. Dicks and sports authority have ok safes and you can get 10% off if you open a card from them.

    also to add, i think that with 33,825 or so threads i dont think there is a new topic to cover or at least it would be rare to find a new question...
