Safe keeping?

Hi all:

Just wanted to get some opinions on a good/great safe to purchase for storing my PM's. I already have a gun safe, but I'd rather keep this one smaller than that, and keep it separate from the armory.

Thoughts?

Eric

I want the biggest Safe I can afford so they can't pick it up an leave.

Check your local Lock Smith they may have a reasonable Floor Safe you can put in a concrete pour, that could be a plus when you sell your house

Buy the heaviest safe you can get. Bolt it down. But bigger than what you currently need.

Do some research. Buy one that is American made. If a store is going out of business, see if they are selling their safe. Check Craigslist. You can have the combination changed.

T-15 & T-30 rated safes have been tested against tool attacks.

Here is an example of what you might want. Notice how big the bolt holes are in the pic that shows it open. 8 large locking pins on that size safe along with heavy gauge steel gives it the T-30 rating.
