Firearm BS thread

How many long guns to you own at this moment in time? And how many long guns do you plan on owning in the next several years?

If the answer to either question is more than 4 or 5, you need a bigger safe and should definitely pass on this safe, even if it is a good deal. Especially if they're bolt guns; those basically take up two slots no matter how you position them.

 

That's a valid argument, I'm also closing on a new house in a week so I will have space for a bigger safe. I'm not too brokenhearted about this deal since I would prefer a bigger one anyways

 

Just buy this one and be done for a while.....

 

Liberty 24 gun?

 

Ft Knox Maverick 6037 w/liberty door organizer

 

Sipping hard on that hateraid huh?

 

Sure 12 without scopes

Besides it's perfect for the baby I plan on having for the time being and then it'll be my ammo safe for when I buy the liberty safe $154 is a deal no matter how you hate on it

 

day it was delivered

 

The voice of experience.
The 12 gun safe that I started out with holds pathetically less than 12 guns, if you want any access to them. I had 6 in it (3 of them were small skinny .22's and a break-action single-barrel H&R 20ga shotgun), when I considered it over full and started searching for something bigger. I couldn't access the gun in back without pulling out the two in front if it, unless I wanted to bang them all against each other trying to do it.
Additionally, with the ammo shelf in place, the interior was too short to accommodate either my Remington 700 or either my 887 or my old 12ga Mossberg bolt shotgun. So, I'm of the opinion that a so-called 12 gun is too small for anybody with more than a couple of long guns.

 

define a while

for me less than 12 months

just sayin
it's all relative.

 

Well, can’t argue with that.... I will max this safe out in about 10 more months.

 

I will have nothing but firearms in the safe and ammo and all other stuff in this in the garage

 

My "Dream Safe" is the Rhino Metals Gun safe. Work of art that thing is. Hand made in "Merica, lifetime repair/replace warranty.

Where'd you find it for that price? Locally, it's running $214.

 

It was on their website and if you order online and do in store pickup it should drop the price

 

Definately go bigger. I have a 10 gun (birthday present and not complaining! ) it holds like 6 maybe 7 if they're small and you are good at tetris

 

Saw that video

Saving my pennies......

 

Quick Q: How does your wife feel about it being in the closet? I ask because I'm about to try to convince my wife to let me move the safe into our bedroom and her closet.

 

Take the shelving and gun racks out, you can fit more in.
