My kid is getting old enough that I need a gun case or safe. Unfortunately, I know nothing about the topic and after research, I feel more confused than when I started. You guys helped me out immensely when I was first picking a gun, so...
I live in a small apartment, so it needs to be compact. I have a 10/22 and a 12 gauge (Remington 870). I plan on getting a pistol, but haven't made it that far yet. I don't need to store documents, ammo, etc, and it doesn't need to do anything but keep curious children out.
Looking through various sites, I see all kinds of features and all kinds of solutions. Vaults, boxes, cases, safes, lockers, and more. Right now I'm picturing a small vertical case, wood or metal, no glass front (why draw attention to the contents?), with a combination lock.
Does that seem to fit with my needs, or is there something else I should be looking at instead? What other advice do you smart folks have?
