I bought my latest safe 6 weeks ago. Had already bought 2 large dessicant cans for inside the safe, and the safe goes inside a closet with an entry lock on that door. I think that buys quite a bit of time. However, I'm usually at home since I'm retired!
Enjoyed the vid. As a gun owner of many decades and having retired alone to a very rural area, the first and foremost thing I do is not advertise I own firearms. With my 20 acres of woodland surrounded by State forest and the closest neighbor being 1/2 mile away I can shoot safely with no worries of disturbing or putting anyone in danger. HOWEVER, I don't shoot my firearms on my property since sound does travel even in the mountains where I reside. I reserve my shooting to a gun range that's more than an hour away on purpose as there are other ranges much closer. That way, I can determine if someone is following me while returning home by watching my six and making a few Crazy Ivans to be 100% sure. Some may consider me paranoid, I consider myself safer since I do live alone. I have two gun safes. One for my firearms and the other for my ammunition and accessories.which are bolted down to the wall and the floor. I also keep two loaded firearms within arms reach when working in my shop or inside my home. Thanks for the tips and I did learn something about safes today. Cheers!
Get a lockable dial lock!! Get the key to change the combo. That way only the owner knows the combo and you do not have to worry about the safe company having a back door combo on it. And your kid can not guess the code and if they do, they still might be able to work the dial, which has a lock on it so you can even keep the kid from turning the dial.
Also depends on your cost of entry. Watched a video here where it took a licensed locksmith 7.5 hours to get into a graffunder vault door that the owner lost the combination to or something. Most theives are low IQ idiots who only understand crowbars and prying stuff. Professionals are out there robbing jewelry stores and bank vaults. Great advice here. Things are getting crazy these days, stay safe out there!
you can put things other than guns in them. a lot have some fire resistance/proofing. So in addition to making things harder to steal, it can also give things like your birth certificate an additional layer of fire protection.
Nobody used gun safes when I was growing up in the 60s. Most people had their guns in wood chests behind glass..people were more sensible back then. Kids were taught firearm safety at 5 years old. Uncle Joe never worried about locking his guns when kids were around. Kids just knew not to mess with them. What the hell happened to people nowadays

You also don't have to worry about the battery going dead.
or get 4-5 safes to confuse them.
I would just end up buying more guns
As long as it's not a Liberty...
Yeah, no kidding. They bud lighted themselves.
