Hey all,
Looking for a pistol safe/box reccomendation.
This will be hidden somewhere in a place of business somewhere that is generally inaccessible to employees. An office within a building, perhaps. No one will know its there but on the off chance someone finds it, it needs to be tough to get into.
1. It will hold one full size handgun, one spare mag, and bonus points if it can fit a holster, but not required.
2. No simplex lock (don't want someone sitting there going through every possible combo to get it open).
3. Quick access is not a concern. It will generally be holstered when I get there and unholstered and locked away when I leave.
4. Needs to be hard to break into. I have a ft Knox pistol box in my bedroom and something that tough at least, would be desirable. It will likely be bolted to something, maybe a concrete floor.
Other notes--I have not totally ruled out a wall safe, relying more on obfuscation than thick steel to protect the gun, but its probably pretty easy to cut a wall safe out and take it with you, if it is ever discovered. And finally I am not 100% sold on biometrics yet. If it was a safe in my house, sure. But there is always a possibility of someone else discovering this safe and I don't trust that technology yet, unless its come a long way in the last few years.
The people with access to this office, I would trust with the knowledge that a handgun was in there. But the rest of the employees, I wouldn't, so I want to make sure it's tough.
Thanks everyone
