Looking to buy me a gun safe pretty soon. Nothing cheap, but not looking for ft. Knox either. Anyone here have any good advice.. Do the Electronic lock type work good.

TIA

Budget and size of safe or the number of guns you hope to fit in it will help us help you.

Liberty and Browning are the two brands I have my eyes on.

I like the old fashion type of dial lock, I have a fear (probably wrong) that something would happen to the electric lock when I needed to get in (electromagnetic pulse).... Hope I am wrong

I have and like browning gold series

I have a Browning Medallion.Very nice fit and finish.I forget the fire rating but it was at the top when I purchased it in 2008.A tip....Find the biggest one you can afford and go one size bigger.

Those Brownings seem real nice. I have a liberty that i like a lot. Check out warranties and get the biggest one you can.

this is my thoughts as well. But I know the dials can be a pain... with the elect. I think I would stick more ran on stuff in there more often.

I have a Liberty 30 gun but not so many guns. Great American made safe. I suggest you buy a safe that handles twice as many guns as you own with a minimum of one hour fire. Wile you should be good on fire protection this level also provides a better defense against break ins. Plus you need the extra room for important papers and the wifes jewels (if these are less than the guns; stay off the OT).

The color I want has been on back order for 3 months now, but when I'm spending 5k on something I'm getting exactly what I want so I don't mind waiting.

Good video but maybe an overkill on what you need. I think the best idea is what a friend showed me. Hide the guns, or safe, in plain view. A slide out behind a TV entertainment center, or a slide out fron under/behind the bed.
