So, I will be moving into an apartment soon and I was wondering what I should do to safely store my firearms. I do not know if I will be on a ground level or upstairs yet but lets say I am upstairs.
A safe is must obviously. Fire-proofing is a requirement (in case some neighbor falls asleep with a lit cig and the complex goes up) I am mostly concerned about moving a safe and securing it. If I am upstairs I figure it would be difficult for petty thieves to move a full safe of say 14-17 long gun size down stairs. I do not think I would be allowed to bolt the safe to the floor either.
Any recommendations from those living in apartments and keeping guns safe? I will probably move the firearms from the apartment to my truck in guitar gig bags to avoid letting others know what I have. If I am leaving the area for a moderate duration I will probably move them to a friends house who I know is very secure.
