Gun safety. Safe, cable or trigger lock? What do you use?

Do you mean the combo or the material? I can see someone smashing open the cheap safes with a sledge but not the midrange to expensive ones.

Now as to the combo or key if someone is breaking into your house with the express purpose of getting into your safe there is no safe made that is going to stop them if they are competent.

Which was my point. It is more difficult to get them out of a cheap safe than a closet or sock drawer.

I'm talking about the safe is easily broken into by most any method I've ever used. I've opened MANY of them. I'm just trying to give you a little friendly advice. If you can afford better, then please do so. Those things are the worst junk available. Sorry, not trying to ruffle anyones feathers, but you deserve to know. Karl.

Hey Karl,
Are you talking about those safes that are more like lockers than a safe. I just got a 24 gun Stack On fire safe at Dick's for $500 usually sells for $800. I don't know how much it weighs, but me and two young bucks carried it up about 20 steps last night on a nice big dolly, and about popped blood vessels picking it up without the door on it. It says it's rated at 1400 degrees for 30 min. Typical specs of the nicer safes. But I think locks keep the honest people honest and if some creep breaks into my house with the right burglar tools, he's probably not leaving empty handed. If it's some junkie, he probably won't get into this safe. They can't say I didn't try.

Paul :cool:

The moral of the story being; If you see a small red car broke down in front of your house and a big dude in a "Dog the Bounty Hunter" tee shirt running around your house with your last pack of "cheesy brats" in his hand, ---you should start to worry---.. :mrgreen: Ryan

So, if the cheesy brats are more readily accessible than my guns, I should be OK. Now I'm a little confused. Should I keep the cheesy brats in the refrigerator or my cheesy gun safe?[poke]
