In Reply to: OT: Gun Safes/ Gun storage. posted by gun guru on August 10, 2008 at 10:06:02:

I am in the process of moving and I had to move 2 gunsafes. One is 450 lbs and the other is 900 lbs (empty) ....Yep not so easy to move! I made up some short 1/2 inch pipes and used them as rollers...very slick. The forks of the tractor just reach in the front door to do the actual heavy lifting...Thank goodness!
The lighter of the 2 is a Treadlock and the other is a Browning.I like them both, but the Browning is far better.
I have around 100 guns and if they were to be stolen, no amount of insurance could replace them, thus I figure instead of paying for the insurance , I would use that same money and invest in a couple of good safes...not sorry I did!
There is/was a company in East Hampton, Conn. (nesci industries)that made some really cool safes. One was a coffee table in the center of the room...pull a latch and the top would hinge up to reveal a metal safe built in, opened by a key.
another was a grandfathers clock with a false front and electric movements. This also opened to reveal a vertical lockable safe.
The 3rd that I remember was a living room end table that had a little lazy susan of sorts that when unlatched exposed the safe(handgun sized) and the top drawer pulled 2/3rds of the way out , although it seemed that is was fully open. By reaching a small latch on the underside of the drawer it fully opened, showing that it had a false back , leaving enough room for a single handgun.
My dad always wanted to cut the back side of a cold water tank out to store guns. He figured no thief would be messing with an old water tank...probably would not even have to lock it.
3 dogs in the house help too....
