Out of loyalty to local business, I felt I needed to call NW Safe to at least give them a chance. I talked to their sales reps and they told me to come down and they'd show me a heck of a deal. Sure, why not? They're 5 minutes from my house.
Remember, Cabela's was $1,999 plus a big freight tab to my sidewalk.
Here's what I got from NW Safe:
the same safe
a dehumidifier (not included from Cabela's at the time)
a door panel for handguns and a COOL PAK (not included from Cabela's at the time)
LED lighting along the entire interior. (not included from Cabela's at the time)
Delivery to exactly where I wanted my new big safe in my house include anchoring down, removal of all garbage (cardboard, wrap, etc), vacuuming out the interior and wiping down the exterior. I literally sat there drinking a cup of coffee while two guys did all the work. (DEFINITELY not included from Cabela's at the time)
Cost? Total came to about $2,100 delivered.
I push NW Safe pretty hard with all my friends. Anything they sale I will naturally buy from them rather than someone else. Their customer service is completely personalized to you. When you walk in and say "I want this", they don't sell you on "that". That kind of customer service is so lost these days that I tend to be pretty loyal to the companies that still have it.
Good luck and no matter which route you go, enjoy your new safe!

1. Buy the absolute biggest you can afford and will fit in your desired location (or buy two medium).....if it says it is a 50 gun safe, you will likely only fit 25-30 long guns before it is packed.
2. Make sure it has a good fire rating....you will find you also use it for important documents. Everyone that I know uses it for more than guns.
3. Buy the tallest model you can. Most of the cheaper / economy safes are short and barely fit long guns....never have figured out why they make safes like this.
Good luck

If you have the means to move one yourself, look for a used one. They pop up quite a bit and you can save a ton of money. The down side....you usually have to move it and they are heavy. Couple things I would reccomend;
1. Buy the absolute biggest you can afford and will fit in your desired location (or buy two medium).....if it says it is a 50 gun safe, you will likely only fit 25-30 long guns before it is packed.
2. Make sure it has a good fire rating....you will find you also use it for important documents. Everyone that I know uses it for more than guns.
3. Buy the tallest model you can. Most of the cheaper / economy safes are short and barely fit long guns....never have figured out why they make safes like this.
Good luck

I bought mine at Cabela's, I liked getting hands on seeing what my money was buying me. The Cabela's signature series is made buy Liberty (their Franklin), I can also tell you Liberties customer service is hands down awesome.
But yes always buy bigger than you want/need, get a good fire rating, and bolt that sucker down. first thing thieves like to do is tip them over for more leverage.

My next safe will be a Sturdy safe since they skip all aesthetic improvements and put that money into materials for thicker shells, which is really what you need when shopping an RSC (called a "safe" but not certified by UL as a safe since they're so easy to break into, so they're called "residential security containers").

Home Depot
Lowes
Everyone in my area has safes. So afar Costco had the best price.
