Gun Safes?

[gallion_t]

I would pay up to 1500.00

Cabelas has  good deals on Liberty safes which are made in USA.Costco safes are not.
 I bought mine a couple weeks back, woodsman 30  $999 24...$879
 Classic 30 $1410 could have had it for $1219 when I bought the woodsman. Also had a $75 off on purchase of 999 or more and 50 pts so It was under $900 Costco had a 48 gun Winchester (China, I believe) for $799 at that time. Besides the import issue, I was worried about the weight of that one.

Does the Woodsman have 4-way locking bolts?

I am also in the market for a safe and that is of high importantance to me. I was going to order the Bighorn B6030EL from costco after Christmas, but they just pulled it from their website this week so now im back to shopping.

 I think you need to go to the classic for that.  And it is just under 1500 reg price

Fort Knox. 

Best safe out there in my opinion, made in the US, and you can customize it to exactly what you want.

Contact Western Safe in Mukilteo.  They'll deliver it and set it up for free and he's a hell of a nice guy.

   Bought a browning Prestige model there a couple years ago.  Upper end Browning which on sale was less than the lower-mid range Brownings at Wholesale etc.  I like Browning safes because you can store 10 guns without scopes (shotguns, .22's etc.) on the inside door before you even get into the inside storage  Great service, delivery and set up.  Lots to look at and great prices.  If you don't check them out before you buy....your loss.

Where is Western Safe located at in Mukilteo? I work there and use to live there and have never heard of them before. I did a quick search and nothing popped up. I would be really interested in looking at what they have.

When you get to narrowing the choices down, I like to grab the door and see how quickly I can move it....like I were fanning a fire. A good safe will have a HEAVY door. Most safes are literally opened like a can from the door. And no matter what.....bolt it down, and if you can bolt it down tight against the off hinge side, even better.

I've got a Liberty Washington that has a door like that, heavy as hell.

NW Safe in Enumclaw

  BE SAfe is worth the drive!

[Snopczynski]

I am with NW Safe in Enumclaw. If you guys have questions, I can answer them.

The first couple I saw are:

Liberty Pro Vaults are a Liberty Centurion, they are US Made. Watchout for the centurions with internal hinges though, they are chinese made. A full line dealer will have US made product, and off brand dealer like lowes will have the chinese stuff.

We are competitive with Cabelas pricing, as a matter of fact, we will beat anyones pricing on the same product.

We do offer delivery like costco to your home for less than what costco would deliver the same safe for. As a matter of fact, we also significantly drop the price of the safe if you want to pick it up, thus you save even more.

I can think of quite a few reasons why Liberty, Superior, Summit, and Browning Pro Series safes in my opinion are a better value than a Cannon safe. The biggest one being the body welding and door shell welding. 2nd being the warranty. Google Search "Cannon Safe problem", you would be horrified by what you find.

The woodsman does not have 4 way locking bolts, it is only covered on two sides of the door.

You do get what you pay for, but we do try to carry the best safe made in every tier or class that each manufacturer offers. Currently I stock 7 different brands of gun safes, I have over 100 gun safes on display in the showroom, and I have somewhere between 500-600 safes in stock in my store in Enumclaw.

I feel the best gun safe you can buy (if your basing this off security and fire protection) is a Graffunder. The best safes you can buy are TL30X6's, these can also be purchased and converted over to gun safe interiors. We carry a line called Original Safe Platinums for the TL30X6's.

You can get a Liberty safe with a 2.5 hour fire rating.  Cannon only goes up to 90 minutes.  Comparable safes (gun capacity and fire rating) between the two, the Liberty is about a $1000 cheaper.

They seem to have about the same construction.  Liberty as a warranty that can transfer will and comes with free in home work and parts for installation of a new safe in the event of fire or attempted break in.

Personally I just like the fire rating, unless someone else knows one that is higher.  You have to figure, fire department could show up too late, decide not to put fire but rather contain it, or something out of there control (on another call or lack of water, who knows  )

Don't the NW Safe in Enumclaw have an annual sale?  Can you share some additional information on that sale?

Fire ratings are good, but the truth is smoke and water will be the killer if it isn't fire itself.

Fire ratings are good, but the truth is smoke and water will be the killer if it isn't fire itself.

All the good safes have a seal that expands.  Doesn't matter how much smoke and water there is if your nice wood stocks or any paperwork you might keep in there hit there ignition temp.
