gun safe ?

[rebs]

I heard that with a safety deposit box at the bank it can only be opened with both your key and the banks key, I don't really think this is true because what if you loose your key, then the box can never be opened ? There has to be a way the bank can open it without your key.

I'm all for a secondary safe for things like magazines, ammunition which is so expensive you might as well have bought gold or silver, spare optics and other accessories.

Right now, it's only firearms, ammo, etc... Besides some family photos, I don't really have much that isn't replaceable.

It can be opened. If you lose your key, the bank will have the lock drilled (at your expense, of course).

Do they really have to have it drilled and that is the only way they can get in it ? If that is the case then maybe they are very secure.

Well, I doubt that the safety-deposit box locks are pick-proof, but it's easier to just drill them out.

I can't think of a reason, other than lack of space, not to put other valuables in my gun safe. Providing a place for jewelry, important documents, etc., was part of the reason SWMBO assented to the purchase of a gun safe.
