I have been searching long and hard for a quality safe at a good price from a reputable dealer. Let me first say that I don't have any involvement in the company who sold the safe or the manufacturer. This will be a really great deal for people living near Fort Worth, TX like me. I bought a new 2010 Winchester Silverado 22 cubic foot for $825 this past week. It has all the bells and whistles. left right AND top/bottom 1 1/2" bolts. 90 minute fire rating at 1,400 degrees. Electronic key pad. It will hold 24 long guns or tweleve with storage shelves on one side and a main fixed top shelf. It weighs in at 700 lbs. Granite Security Products is the manufacturer and their main warehouse is in Fort Worth. The guy I bought it from is in California. It is called "The Safe Place." I dealt with Bill and he was top notch. The sweet thing is since he is out of state and it was on the Internet there was no sales tax and since I picked it up there was no delivery. The safe itself was on sale for 37% off. It is 60" H x 24" D x 30" W.
It took five of us to get it in my house using a hand truck that was rated for 800 lbs. The tires and axle complained bitterly but did not give. Once in, I was able to slowly scoot it into place by myself. I will have it bolted down later this week.
Anyway, I am proud of my first "big boy" safe. I think I got a great deal. Liberty, Cannon, Browning and other brands were much more expensive comparably equipped. No pics due to one camera being broken and my wife is in China with the other. It is purely a coincidence that I got my safe while my wife was half way around the world!
