Gun Safe, where to buy?

False wall....love it...

I laid mine down and slide it on the carpet to the stairs, then slide it on cardboard downstairs with a strp on it to lower it, then slide it into place......when i sell the house it goes with it 

I did something similar, but used a come-along to get it up and down the stairs.

What did you hook the comealong to? cross beam in a door frame?

Yep, put a 4x4 across a door frame and used some ropes to tie to a heavy piece of furniture to take some stress of the frame.

If you want the appearance and "feeling" of protection buy from any of the above mentioned vendors.

If you want a quality safe that offers actual security, get a Sturdy Safe.

North 40 in Moses Lake has a good selection.

After moving a gigantic safe for a neighbor(4 guys total) I decided to go with multiple medium sized safes.  I can move them myself, they aren't as likely to cause the floor to buckle, and the investment overall is not that much difference in $$$ if at all.  I bolt them down so it is highly unlikely they will be packed off.

So, now that I have the space and a little cash I'm looking to buy a stand up big boy gun safe. I've been told to buy big and will pretty much go as big as I can afford/fit in the room via access points. I'm not to hung up on brand but will stick with known manufactures. The question is....where? Costco? Cabelas? Home Depot? I need delivery and transportation into the gun room. This is on the basement level so I've got plenty of support underneath it.

depends on what you want for quality and brand.. there are some very nice high end safes out there as well as junk.. have seen the videos of the tip over flat and pry bar the doors open, quite an eye opener regardless of most levels of quality. so my recommendation, regardless of the model is to lag it to the floor or wall to help prevent theft..

Last December I bought a Cabelas Signature series. when I'm throwing down that kind of money I like to be hands on and look at what I'm getting. Their Signature safes are made by Liberty which has EXCELENT customer service (I had no problems with the safe itself just the lights it came with). I bought REALLY big and had a 3rd party that Cabelas recommended install it. It cost a bit to install the new one, but I moved my old safe to a buddies house which according to my hernia meter was about 600lbs. the new one was almost twice that so there was no way I was gunna mess with moving that SOB (plus they bolted it down, ALWAYS bolt it down). I do recommend buying the WIRED light kit and a dehumidifier rod. the safe comes with battery lights which are pretty much worthless and eat batteries like tic tacs, and the dehumidifiers to protect your investments obviously. Any questions PM me. Happy Hunting!

gunsafes.com sells many of the different safes on the market.  They seem to have competitive prices and offer a lot of information about the different safes they sell.  They include free shipping as well.  They're Idaho based but I'm guessing everything is drop shipped from a distributor.

I can't emphasize this enough, do your research before you purchase a gun safe!  DO NOT go strictly off of price and brand name because nearly all of them have their less expensive line/s but it'll still have the same company name.  If you just want something to put your stuff in and lock the door, well, just about all of them will accomplish that.  BUT, if you want a safe that truly protects against fire or break ins/theft, you're going to have to step up and pay for that security.

I saw first hand what a fire can do to even the best gun safes.
safe was rated for 1600 degrees at 45 minutes.
 A fellow member showed me his guns after his house burnt down, over a dozen pieces of steel is whats left. all the wood is toast. His family is safe & healthy, which is what matters.

FYI, I paid $1180 delivered for my Liberty Fatboy and installed into me secret, booby trapped area. North 40 in Omak was the dealer.
