Gun Safes

I've been comfortable with a Harbor Freight, Union safe, it looks pretty good. I've admired the more expensive safes, but they don't seem to be better constructed.
Save money on the fireproof brands, and make your own 1/2" sheetrock box, that's what you'd pay for.

check the second hand market. Lots of folks out there that don’t want to move theirs either. I would get a larger one to grow into since you are already on a slab. When it comes time to move , two men and a truck. They got the big uglies that are up for the challenge.

We bought this Liberty Centurion from an USAF Lt. Who was on his way to SHAFE from Peterson Air Force Base.

We paid $325, they sell new for over $600.

Tractor Supply?
Never heard of Tracker Supply.
I just read that Tractor Supply is the largest seller of gun safes by volume in the USA, seems strange.

I have one. Fire and flood rated. 5 pins. Pretty big. I paid under $500 for it. It won't keep a determined thief with a circular saw and at least a half hour they can make a lot of noise out, if they can find it, but that's not really something I have to worry too much about. Besides, the good stuff is in a different safe they will never find, even with all the time in the world.
 
I recently bought a Browning sp23 made by pro-steel. Very nice, not stupid expensive. It beat a lot of the safes on a gun safe review site and has one of 3 recommended digital lockpads. I also spent the money to warranty the safe for my lifetime should anything happen. They will pay for the locksmith and make it right. If anyone trys to defeat it or I have a fire a new safe will be sent to my house.
If I had deep pockets I'd buy one of these. I have a friend who has one and they are a beast.

Kind of ugly, but it could be real fugly if it works and is one heck of a mother to defeat.

I've been putting this off for awhile now, but me and my g/f closed on a house yesterday so now that I
1. Have the space, and
2. Will have people coming from all over to visit us since we can put them up, Have the need for one.

I do not have nearly as many firearms as alot of you guys here, so I do not need a giant safe. One to fit maybe 3-5 long guns and a few handguns / ammo / important documents should suffice.

I've dealt with alot of safe companies / manufacturers in the past as I used to run a locksmith & door company back in NYC, but I am curious as to what you guys use, who you prefer, and so on. Lay it on me fellas. As always, much appreciated.

Browning, Ft Knox are both very good. As an aside, if you think you’ll bemoving in the future, a Zanotti modular is tough to beat. My son’s a (now retired) career Marine. He moved a lot and bought a Zanotti years ago to take with him. He’d knock it down, move, and then reassemble it on his own-a LOT easier to move than a traditional safe
