Northwest safe is a good place to check, also costco....as far as size, trust me when i say the one you buy will be too small eventually...
Costco :yeah: I got a good smaller Cannon Safari from COSTCO for 499.00 delivered. Hard to beat

Costco is a good place as well as big r if your near Spokane. Remember there isn't sales tax on safes in WA. Also remember that each gun is probably worth $1000 and 6-8 of them add quickly to dollar value. IMO a safe is not a place to save money. I did and wish I would have spent more. Buy bigger than you think.you will need because it will fill up...Fill-up naw they bread in a safe got to be careful get the biggest one you can and get a bigger one later. :chuckle:

Like many have said, pick the one you think will be big enough then actually get the next size bigger because you ALWAYS wish they were bigger.
One of the things to look for with safes is what they weigh. This is one of those times were the more it weighs, typically, the better the safe. Also, do you want interior or exterior hinges? Personally, I like exterior hinges better because the door will open a full 180 were as a interior hinge only allows for slightly over 90 degrees. Some will try and tell you external hinges can be sawed off and are easier to break into but this is false becasue as long as the door lugs are locked the hinge doesn't matter.
Costco sells Rhino and Bighorn safes that are made in Id. and they are a very good safe. Costco is always running some kind of sale on Bighorn safes so if you are patient you can get a really good safe for less.
Hope this helps and good luck with your safe purchase.

I've got a 60 gun Fort Knox and love it. The guys I bought it from were great and they even offered to come out and help me move it when I bought a new house.
