Gas not sure which one you want a link to. The "Breaker box" gun locker is at my brother in laws house, (He is in WV ) He built it from the parts I described. If you mean the finger print unit I will grab link for one this weekend when I hit the gun show.

It sounded like the breaker box was a purchasable unit from your previous post. Genius idea though.

Sorry I wasn't clear, it is based on a wal mart 49.99 gun locker. He painted it, lag bolted it inside a utility closet,added the breaker handle and conduit. he is into the project less than $100. It it locked , and because it doesn't announce it self it is surprisingly secure.

Not much of a secret if he tells everyone about it. You would be surprised how many people are robbed those they know.

IT doesn't announce there is something in here worth stealing traditional safes do.
We do have one of the little fingerprints units. It is a cheapo lock box with a slightly more sophisticated lock it works most of the time. It runs on batteries so if you don't change the batteries you are left to look for the key, Which is a bitch cause to to quote Col Cooper " You very rarely need a a gun but when you do you need it Very Badly"
