Sentry Executive Firearm Safe

[mtnbkr]

Costco sent me a coupon for this safe. With the coupon, it will be $499.99 shipped. Other than it not being a firesafe, I can't find anything wrong with it. Are Sentry safes decent? I was looking at cabinets (like the stack-on models) until I found out about this sale.

It's kinda small, you're gonna fill that thing up in no time. Spend a couple hundred more and get a bigger safe, you'll be glad you did.

Found this a little lower on the board, good info on safes:

Walmart might sell that Safe cheaper.

I'm pretty sure that they had the same model

on-sale before Christmas at $449 or $469. I'd had my eye on the Sentrys being sold by Wal-Mart under the endorsement of the BuckMasters hunting fraternity(?). The 14-gun model was $369 with dial knob, and $499 with electronic lock. Alas, they are all sold out of the cheaper one. They're very good quality for what you are getting, and are light years ahead of any so-called 'gun cabinet' IMHO.

Check with Walmart maybe they will special order the model safe you want ,I know they do that with rifles.

I measured the dimensions on my Sentry Walmart/Bimart 14 gun safe,and all they'v done is added a few shelves and jacked the price up$290.Other than the side shelves its the same safe I paid $359 for.

Yeah, I've looked around and found the same or similar safes for less money. I'm still debating on whether or not I want to spend an extra $300+ for a fireproof safe. I know I should, but...

mtnbkr, if you are looking for a real safe not just a steel lock box, I recomend AMSEC (American Security Products Company) as their units are serious and go up to a TL-30 rating with a group ll combination lock and come in several sizes. The Sentry Safes are not much more than a Craftsman tool box, the reason for my remarks is that I work on safes for a living. If I can answer any question please feel free to ask, this is the same thing I told txgolfer45 at his post about safes.
