Gun Safe

[strutter]

I've been thinking of getting a gun safe. Who's got one? Any info on brand, accessories, good deals would be appreciated. Thanks

I bought a liberty gun safe 10 years ago and have had no issues. The guy that sales them is in Pearl, MS at discount gun safes. Great family to deal with. Last year I did upgrade my lock to an electronic lock which I advise.

Go ahead and get a big one 40+ or as big as your space will allow. I'm currently about to have to upgrade safes because my collection has outgrown my smaller safe purchase from about 7 years ago.

I just got a liberty fat boy 64 gun safe from discount gun safe in pearl just like edub said get the biggest one you can handle

I bought a 24 gun cannon from academy when they had it on sale for black friday. Got a really good deal, like just under $500. It is full and holds maybe 8 guns on one side. I wasnt thinking about all the other stuff that I would want to keep in the safe so I have shelves on one side.

When we move I am going to buy a much bigger safe and relegate this safe to the garage for easy access during hunting season.

They are correct about getting the largest you can. I have a Franklin 50 and it is slap full. I don't consider myself to have alot of guns either compared to some folks I know.

Not to hijack, but who makes a better safe: Liberty or Champion? Has anyone bought a safe from Lakeway in Grenada?

One last thought also. When I bought mine Discount Gun Safes was at the extravaganza and had a sale. I did not buy it at the extravaganza but did tell him I would come see him within the week and he sold it to me for that sale price. That being said the extravaganza is this weekend so if you choose to look at Liberty Safes you may want to inquire to see if Discount Gun Safes is have an extravaganza sale.

I bought a Liberty last year best decision I ever made it holds around 30 guns but cant remember the style name. I also bought the door rack for pistols mags ect. well worth it if you are a neat freak like myself

The guys at Discount Gun Safe are top notch guys from what i've heard about them.

ditto--Bigger is better

The fat boy comes with the bag and 2 led strip lights but they kinda suck because you pin them on with stick pins but overall a great safe I could have went with a longer fire rating with a higher price safe but I think the one I purchased was good enough for me it will take 1200 degrees for an hour and 15 minutes placement of the safe will help with the fire rating I put mine on an exterior wall to help out

As everyone else has said, go bigger than you think you will need. When any brand says 24, 50 or 64 guns, they are talking little unscoped 22s or something, not scoped rifles and ARs. They eat up space quick. You will be surprised what else you find that needs to go in the safe once you have one.

I picked up a Fatboy from Discount Gun Safe in Pearl and couldn't be happier. Talk to the them about where you want to put that safe. They know how much clearance they need for the safe and dolly to navigate in your house. Just because you think it will fit down the hall and make the turn into your bedroom doesn't mean it actually....and momma keeps threatening to call them back out to move it from the dining room to the garage....

They usually have an extravaganza sale and a sale on previous model years.
