That's a very nice looking safe, unfortunately it is similar to the type that was opened within a second with a good magnet, As per the other thread. You might want to put a security type padlock on it to slow down any burglars.

I think I'm fairly confident in my Fort Knox. Anyway, it's more for fire protection and keeping kids hands off my guns. Most smash and grab burglars won't be getting into my safe.

I really like my safe it offers some protection from burglary and a fire rating plus it looks pretty cool I think.

Most home owner insurance policies only cover certain items like firearms to a specified total value. Unfortunately. many people do not read their policies, and are not aware of this. As well, some policies are voided if reloading takes place in the insured property.

Is that just for claiming firearms, or is the whole policy void if reloading takes place??

The entire policy could be voided, if the policy owner does not abide by the conditions that are specified in the policy.

I just called insurance company as well. They are covered under content insurance. You can get them appraised and added as schedule to policy if one wanted.

I have a fire rated one. More for piece of mind theft wise I think, not sure what it ways but it's a lot.

Default ab out gun safe

Weapon safe organizations have made a scope of highlights to improve their models appear than their rivals'. These highlights are promoted to purchasers, giving you the impression you're purchasing more assurance than you truly are. A considerable lot of the highlights on the present firearm safes are minimal more than adornments intended to get your wallet out from here.
