Gun safes
« on: May 05, 2011, 10:42:23 pm »
Any input would be great. looking at gun safes, would like to know if you have had good or bad experiences with one brand or another, etc. Looking for a 10 to 14 fire rated gun safe, with a few shelves.

Mine is a Liberty Centurion, 1200 degree for 30 minutes with the electronic keypad. It was 6 big bills and I like it.

It's a 23 gun/25 cubic foot, or vice versa.

Anyone have smaller units, like those that can bolt to the floor and can double as a document safe too? Pretty much just need to store a full size semi auto, some keys, small stack of paperwork. Ive looked around, but I dont know what brands are good.

I don't have kids either but I think they would be better in a safe for many reasons. I too keep one loaded and on my night stand if its not on me or with me in the vehicle.

I wouldn't say it's hated. I'm just not a fan, Glocks with poor reloads tend to KB on it, but there's several issues at work there that by themselves wouldn't be issues.

Of course, I own (and sometimes carry) a .38 super, so that's a little out there. I need to contact who's making the AMT backups and see if they'll make me one.

I have a .40 Glock 22 and it is awesome, I love it.  As long as you can make good groups with it it doesn't matter if someone else hates it.  I also have a Smith & Wesson Model 629 .44 Mag... I like that one better ;)

I have a Glock 23 40 cal and love it as well.  I keep it in a cheapo Harbor Freight electric small safe bolted to the floor.  Works well and has fast access.  I keep a small fire box for real important stuff and a regular file cabinet for the mundane.
