Ok, moving to a new house and the arsenal is getting larger- I figure its about time to look into a safe. My main concern is protection from burglars.
Money is an issue right now, so here are my questions:
1. What is the minimum safe to at least have a chance during a burglary? (keep in mind many criminals like to get in and get out fast) So I am trying to figure out what would be the minimum that the wouldn't want to waste their time trying to work on it.
2. What do you think of the concept of getting a cabinet type, but bolting it to a wall?
3. Is it even worth it to get a cheap safe or should simply save up for another year and in the meantime allow my collection to be vulnerable? (neighborhood is low crime but you never know)
4. If the safe is going to be kept in the basement, is fire-resistance as important?
5. Anything from the following list that would be good?

I'm looking for a lot of opinions and bias here. Thank you!
