That's a great idea.  There's one on CL for $30.  I'd give that a try if it was a bit closer to me.

Need to build another "mancave" as this one is running out of room! 

I know this post went dead but I just heard the story on these pictures from a good friend of mine who met the owner. The owner's name is John Ross a prominant loyer/buisinessman and one of the few holders of a passed down class 3 firearms permit. 

John Ross is apparently a libery activist who aquired part of this collection from his father who I believe passed him is class 3 firearms permit.

In order to get to this safe you need to take an elevator below ground. Once you are at the front door of the safe you see three dials to lock or unlock the safe. The middle dial doesnt work normally like the other two. On the other side of the safe door is a glass door that is not only very strong (bulletproof ?) but also rigged and placed so that it will only open when the safe door is closed and so that only one person can get through at a time.  If the safe locks are tampered with 2 explosive devices ignite and send the bolts from the middle dial out welding them in place. Tampering with the locks also locks the elevator leading to the room.  The gap between the glass door and the safe door also has tear gas that drops into the room. 

John ross wrote a novel called Unintended Consequences which my friend highly suggested be read.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unintended_Consequences_(novel)
This novel apparently outraged an agency (BATFE?) that tried to serve one of it's new pop up warrants into the pictured facility when John Ross would not cooperate with their threats about his new book. 

The story goes that John Ross recieved a phone call from the agency saying that they were having problems at one of his properties. John Ross inquired to how they could have a problem at his property serving a warrant if he wasnt there in the first place. John Ross, about to get on a flight to a prior arranged flight did not feel as though he needed to be in a hurry to release the agent stuck between the glass door and the safe door or the rest of his coworkers stuck there because the elevator had locked them in.

Thats a hell of a collection of old military weapons but I dont see anything in there that would warrant going to those extremes IMHO. Purhaps its what we cant see that he is so worried about, myself I would rather have the Pepsi machine safe

Here's mine after thieves got ahold of it. They didn't get into it luckily. But they did do some damage. BOLT YOURS DOWN. 

[scroder]

Anyone want to explain what a "class 3 firearm permit" means to the average joe?
