How does /k/ store their long guns?

In a gun safe? Security cabinet? Closet corner?
>>
>>33695611
Leaning against my wall. Hand guns I keep in various drawers.
>>
>>33695637
Do you live in a decent part of town?

Right now I have two handguns and my gf has one so they can fit in a small amazon safe. She won't let me get more long gunz unless I secure them in some way.

No, but seriously I don't live in a town, or a city. I live in the middle of nowhere Wisconsin.

Nobody comes in my house except myself and my girlfriend, and she knows not to touch my guns.

One of these shitty stack on lockers.
>>
I finally broke down and bought one of those stack on 22 gun cabinets because they were one sale recently. Plan on bolting to floor and wall studs inside my closet.

Figured I'd probably off myself if some nigger came in and walked off with my family heirlooms.
>>

Lucky. I live in a suburb and its not completely crime-free. Car break-ins and vandals mostly.
>>
>>33695686
>>33695674
Satisfied with your purchase?
>>
>>33695720
Idk, it should be here next week.

I think a locked cabinet will deter most would be thiefs but eventually I will upgrade to an actual safe. If the cabinet is too flimsy i was thinking of welding new steel plates on it
>>
>>33695689
I used to also live in he suburbs.

I leave my stuff laying around. But /k/ actually taught me something. I have pictures and serial numbers of all my gats. That and homeowners insurance. So on the off chance something happens, I'm covered.
>>
>>33695738
I have 2, completely flimsy and the lock is trash. But it's better than leaning em against my closet wall.
>>
>>33695738
>>33695761
The weak point is the lock like you said anon. If you bolt it down in a closet with the door 90 degrees to a wall this can deter crowbars.

I have a basic fireproof safe for them placed in the coldest area of the house if a fire did happen.
I'm not too worried about nefarious characters where I live.
Also, if your cases are getting to be a pain in the arse to manage, buy a case keeper like I've got hanging from the side of my safe.
>>
>>33695611
I use Sturdysafe. Industrial as fuck but not cheap/poorfag looking and it took 3 guys to move it at ~700lbs. It's a tiny 8 gun model that will hold probably 10-12 on the factory rack, more with rods.

I keep my revolver and my rifle under my bed in a pelican case. I lock it to the bedframe if I'm gone for a while. I live in a condo near San Francisco.

32 gun safe at my office
>>
>>33695674
This, in a closet, with a blanket over it for when maintenance shows up.
Not worth getting anything more substantial while in my current apartment. I'm on the third floor with no elevator and the n a decent neighborhood.

When I get a home I plan to wall off a section of basement with concrete block and put a steel security door in to use as a walk in safe with emergency food and water storage. Probably a shit ton cheaper than a large safe of comparable security
>>
>>33695611
I keep mine in a """"""""""""safe"""""""""""""

It's not very secure at all, but I'm moving relatively soon and don't want to go drilling holes in my floor to secure it just before I move. Plus, I just can't bring myself to do the "spend as much as your collection is worth on a safe to protect them" meme that people assure me is the only way to stop them from being stolen.
>>
>>33695720
Won't hold up to determined thief with a hammer or crowbar, more of an out of sight out of mind deterrent.
Good to keep children or visiting relatives out, people who would snoop but are not willing to go to town smashing up your property.

Cheapo gun safe (more or less legal requirement) and office cabinet for ammo storage.

Won't keep a real thief out for long, of course.

Bottom of the lake. Boat sank...if any one was curious, all my guns, ammo and digs were on the boat. Rip in peace.

>>33695720
Not that guy, but I have a cheap one, and it's nice to have a specific place to store your guns so they aren't laying around of in a closet or something. It's like having a large toolchest for your tools, where they're out of your way, they're all easily locatable, and it helps to prevent accidental damage.

Shitty stack on I bought from a yard sale
>>
I have one of these in my closet. >>33695674

at what temperature/humidity should I be concerned about moisture/rust?

considering moving the cabinet to my basement.
>>
Poorfag so I just keep my two guns in cases I got for free in my closet. They're buried under some stuff and not very many people know I own guns. I also live in a quiet part of town, my neighbors are all graduate students, and I live in a state where there's a very serious risk of being shot during any break in, even to an apartment in a college town.
When I can afford it I'm renting a small house and buying a safe, plus more guns.
>>
I'm looking for a long gun cabinet at the moment. I'm looking to store at least 4 long arms hopefully 6 one being a 91/30 mosin. This will be laying horizontally under a bed for now. Anyone have any preferences? I'm looking at just cheapo bullshit ones for now, just wanted to know if anyone had one that they felt was stellar for the price

Browning Prestige 48
Yeah I know it's not a Fort Knox or some other high profile name but it's 10 gauge all around and I got a deal on it.

Shelling out thousands on a safe is rough until you realize you prob keep 5-10x the value of the safe inside it.

Plus the idea of some their fingerfucking my gats triggers me.
>>
>>33695652
Bitch, lay the law down. My gf walked out of the room when I took out my 10/22 to mess with the scope. I confronted her about it and instead of being told I can't have it, I taught her about gun safety.

But, I'm sure being told what you can and can't do in your own house is alright too. She better make more than you.

Holy fuck, are you me? Only difference is I have a shitton of ammo cans next to it, which makes it very difficult to hide.

>>33706239
They're retarded. Unless you have them all over your house they're going to look out of place and people will be curious as to why. Plus, thieves probably recognize them by now.
>>
I want a Sturdy Safe because the value of my collection is about 10x the cost of what model I'm interested in. But I also live in an apartment, so renter's insurance and many pictures of my firearms is all I have to protect them at the moment.

I have a Liberty safe that they claim will hold 24 long guns and I have about 16 in there and it's packed tight! Good safe for the money though, paid 6 hundo out the door. A good value right in between the Stack On file cabnit and the 2 grand 90 minute fire tested safes.

>>33702207
Yup, I got a 10 gauge 52 CU ft firesafe. Weighs 1100lbs empty and is bolted to the concrete underneath. I keep a fireproof document safe inside it for passports and insurance policies. The primary job of my safe is to reduce fire damage and keep kids out. I know a determined thief can thrash 10 gauge steel quickly.

I live in a quiet little suburb and have less than 10 long guns and less than 10 pistols. The $3k for the safe + install has the unexpected bonus of: wife complains less when I bring a new gun home.
>>
>>33695611
I leave them laying around my bedroom because im a moron who cant be bothered to guy a gun safe because im in college and it would be a bitch to move a gun safe from school to home every year.
>>
>>33708514
Congrats, on getting 16 in that. The rule of.thumb I heard was divide by 2. So really 16 is a testament to your Tetris skills.

Because of california i HAVE to have a gun and ammo in separate safes at all times in my home, i hate it here but whatever. I have a ruger GP100 in my wall safe next to my bed, and my safe carries everything else, AND i have a small safe under my bed with my .357 ammo and another next to my gun safe.

Fuck this place, if i could afford to move i would have awhile ago.

Shitty Stack-On steel cabinet strapped down in the corner of a walk-in closet. A solid-core steel door with a deadbolt seals the deal.
