wrote: Well, then, no reason to buy a safe, eh? Because in your world, nothing can be done about anything. The safe I have uses 11-gauge steel, whatever that is. 11 ga steel is just over 1 tenth of an inch thick. Not much thicker than the steel in a file cabinet. Hope that makes you feel secure. Actually 11ga is .125" and really thick for a typical gun safe. File cabinets are usually 18-20ga and cheap ones less than that. The "security" Steelcase ones we had at IBM were 18ga. The regular ones were 20ga as I recall (it may be 16/18). I have a regular one back in the shop I keep my ammo in. I suppose I could check it. The difference is just how fast the cut goes tho. If someone is serious and brings a 14" cutoff saw, 1/4" steel is going down pretty fast. It really just depends on how much they want your guns and if they know they are there in the first place. Big safes, usually mean lots of valuable guns. Harry may be attracting unnecessary attention to his modest collection ;-) |

When you have a gun collection worth over $100K, you have the best safes (fire and intrusion), a perimeter security system, and cameras. I also have additional insurance to cover loss by theft, and fire. Come and get them. |

He actually boasts how many guns he has and what kind over a public newsgroup. How stupid is that? |
