$0.02 --- definitely agree w/ the statements that as long as it's bolted in/secured, you're more than good overall.


There's a lot of talk that goes on/around with issues with the digital safes vs spin combos --- some are better than others, but me personally I'll stick with spin combos. Regardless, if there's a fire, your shits more than likely going to have to be taken care of by a professional locksmith.

Documents --- buy a document safe, they're rated differently to handle fires so that you don't end up with a bunch of ashes instead of your wad of cash (there's also ratings for data safes, to store CD's/etc).


For what it's worth, depending on your investment, I'd make sure that the gun safe is rated for fire as well.



but what the fk do i know.

I dug this thread out of retirement to see if anyone had opinions regarding this safe:

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005FDIUPE/...I38UXXQ7DH1R70

Or the BARSKA brand in general. Appreciate any thoughts on the matter.

Saw one of those marked way down at a Gebos but went with a big safe. Would go nice in the corner near the head of my bed but not sure open having it right in the open.

So... 4 years later, I finally bought one and I love it!

Women and theyre lateness.

I can't comment on the safe but, I have a Barska 8-32X42AO scope that I love! For the price I paid and what it is it's a great buy! I have a friend with several Barska scopes and feels the same. No idea on the quality of any of their other products but, I'm happy with their scopes.

I know. I had to make a few changes around this place before I could get one. Isn't there a saying, "better late than never"? Why can't that apply? :lol:

my gun safe is really an ammo safe, lol
