First time poster, apoligize if posting in wrong place.
I tried to find the answer to this already, but kept getting sucked into off topic discussions.
I need a new thing (call it a "safe", "fireproof box" or "security container", or whatever the apropriate title).
Factors:
1. I am active duty, and move often, so weight is a concern.
2. I have 4 long guns, one w/scope, plans for maybe 4 more- I am more of a "user" than a "collector"...and I need room the the typical other stuff stored.
3. budget about $1300; would go more if there is a compelling reason; would be happier if I could find a $799 deal I see in the posts from a couple years back.
4. fire protection is more a concern than theft resistance, if I have to priortize the two.
5. I don't care about finish; this will be in a closet or bolted in the basement; I keep looking for a used safe, but can't find one.

For a starting point, I have been considering the liberty products, the centurion deluxe, colonial (cabellas branded "timber ridge"), maybe the franklin 27 (above my budget and needs)/
