Buying Gun Safe Online

[Dawico]

Let's see.......800 lb safe, 300 lb rated dolly......

With that kind of thinking, you should be ashamed to have Redneck in your screen name. All you need is a little more air in the tires.

lol

Something like this?

I saw that pic IN a home depot....lmao.
As far as your safe..you can tote it in a 1/2 ton or 3/4 tone with a tommy lift. Now to get it from your driveway to it final spot? lol...have fun!

 

[TexasRedneck]

Yep!

Seriously - Budget rents 'em, as does Enterprise an' Penske.

I have a Penske right down the road from me and if they have this truck,its on like a chicken bone.That is if it isn't a shit load of money to rent.

YouTube - Maxon Lift-gate Demo on Penske Rental Truck

Probably more than $250 to rent though...

TexasRedneck,I see your point on all this.
I'm just trying to save a few bucks.The more money I save the more to spend on ammo!

No problem, my friend.....it's just that this thread has become the poster child for "oops!"(G) I KNOW stuff gets expensive - believe me, I recognize it. I own an F150 besides the 450 - the 150 is used for "running around", the 450 for when the job is real. It's entirely too expensive to just "knock around" in - it's a Utility bed truck, and the tools in it alone would set someone back over $10k. That's why it's hard to get things done now - the cost of just going out to "look" at something to quote have gotten out of hand if you ain't careful.

I made a 180 mile round trip on a job yesterday - cost me $70+ in fuel alone. Took me and a helper a bit over 3 hours in drive time. The trip charge alone was $530!! 10-15 years ago, that same run was like $225.

"You may also want to think about hanging around with a better (or worse) group of people."
?
Please explain.

You live in the South and don't know anybody that has a truck? Not one person? I didn't even know that was possible.

Yeah that 450 i bet is expensive to operate.I'm looking at a used 2001 Ford F150 XLT Supercrew for a second vehicle.The MPG on it sux as well.It sure is a nice truck though.I might hold off on purchasing this truck after seeing what kind of MPG they get now.I'm also looking at a used Nissan Frontier 4cylinder not the 6 so I can save on gas money.I like the looks of these trucks as well.

You don't know me well enough yet - but ah'm jest yankin' yer string.<G> Havin' paid almost $450 to offload and install a safe last year, I understand the angst - but tryin' to move 1800 lbs of dead weight takes some serious manpower!

I probably should just pay the $250 and be done with it. The other place wanted $300 heh.

How much does the safe weigh?

 

[ArchonXD40]

I just looked up the specs for this safe.
Its a Cannon 48 gun. 850lbs
I said Browning earlier but I meant to say Cannon.

This is it but the one they have in stock is silver not black.

 

[ArchonXD40]

wow we have really hijacked the OP's thread lol

 

[Dawico]

You could always put an ad on Craigslist. It is a gamble, but if I was closer, I'd do it for way less than $250.

I thought about that but then I thought about a total stranger in my crib knowing about my safe.

I'm in Shreveport,damn near TX if you ask me.

If that is the 6ft tall Cannon, that is one I have. You can manhandle it with a crew of friends and a case of beer. I did anyway.

Yeah its the 6ft tall one.
How are you liking it so far?
I found a local sports store selling it for $900.
Looks like Home Depot CANNON 48 Gun Safe with Fire Protection Commercial Grade E-Lock Built in Power Box - HD-AE48E-Blk at The Home Depot wants $1600 for the same safe pfft.
