Yeah, works well on the guns inside too.An Oxy-Lance would be in before you could ask “What’s an Oxy-Lance?”.
Pretty sure everyone has seen vids of safes being keyed open.
That said, I haven’t once seen a report of burglars actually doing it. Yeah, probably happened once or twice. But every gun theft I’ve seen reported has been from guns that were not locked up.
IMO, the idea of “smart criminals” is highly exaggerated and the odds of any of them actually attempting to get inside the average consumer gun safe are extremely small. Might they try to drag one out of its near enough to the front door, sure. But I don’t think anyone could show me a enough reports of safes being busted and emptied on site to make it anything more than a statistical anomaly.

I actually have BP and Smokeless powder in mine..........
Ill vouch for that. I think this is one of the most important considerations along with PLACEMENT within the home.
Most fires start in the kitchen or a centralized area full of electronics etc. I dont believe I have EVER seen an accidental fire start in a bedroom. Kitchens, for the most part, are located furthest from the bedrooms and even in fires that destroy a home 80-90% (before we can get there) its amazing how well (closed) closet spaces survive along with the clothing. Ruined by smoke and water ,yes, but not the heat.
Think about it as layers of clothing, Im going to place my gun in a safe layer, then Im going to layer the safe within a closed closet, which naturally places it furthest from "said" heat source.
And since I breached that subject....todays tip.
Those newfangled electronic refrigerators. If you have one of the new fancy ones I encourage you to place a smoke detector on the back of it somewhere. I am amazed at how many recent (5 years) fires have been caused by the damn fridge. Those things seem to catch on fire all the time.
Wait! William Perry is an arsonist?Spoke to a friend last night that had the house burn almost to the ground. Started by the fridge.
So I am looking at safe's and some things I know I should look for are.
12 guage steel minimum
bolts that surround the door
configurations that will hold all my guns and future purchases
fire-rating kinda misleading, I get it.
What else?
In my opinion.... Stay away from safes that have electronic components

My batteries are under the keypad on the outside of the safe.battery failure
I’ve had my electronic safe for 10 years now, with no issues. It even fell over on its face during my most recent move and knocked the keypad off. I simply popped it back into place, replaced the batteries, and i opened it right up.They are a pain to deal with if something goes wrong
