Hello! I'm in the market for a safe, and have had a tough time sorting through the confusing world of RSC's.
TheSafeGuy has made me rethink a lot about the security of thicker steel (I was already sold on the fire protection of Amsec) and I'm thinking of stretching my budget even further and picking up an Amsec. My concern now is primarily space and growing room.
How many long arms are you folks able to store in your BF6636? I see it's listed at 36, but that's obviously for a bunch of single shot shotguns. Looking to secure about twenty long arms (four precision rifles, some ARs, milsurp, etc.) and various pistols. Would the 6636 be 'barely holding' that much?
I'd like to future proof my purchase a bit to allow for a few more down the road. It's almost 6k for the next size up in Amsec safes, and I can't swing that much. If I can't store what I need to in an Amsec, I'll just have to default back to a Liberty Fatboy. My original budget was $3500 but the difference between quality levels doesn't seem to kick in until around $4k..
The next option is a Sturdy, which would run around $4500. This feels like a tall order for a level of fire protection that might be placebo.
Thanks for your thoughts!
