I am trying to decide on a gun safe as I don't have one. I do not live in a dangerous area, I live in the boonies. Breakins are extremely rare and almost unheard of. I know that most "safes" are really RSC's. That said I know that whatever I get will not stop a determined theif and will only stop a smash and grab type of robbery. I saw how easy a $1200 browning safe was defeated with a sawzall. They drilled a hole in the top, using it as the starting point and cut a hole in it to remove the guns. So I know that neither of these will offer any protection to theft beyond an opportunists. Also my gun collection could be replaced for 2500 so it doesn't make a lot of sense for me to spend thousands of dollars on a safe to protect a very modest collection, which won't be expanded anytime soon.
With all of that out of the way I think that I have narrowed it down to a couple of choices. I have been looking at a liberty revolution 24 or provault 24 or a Tractor Supply winchester 24 gun safe (http://www.tractorsupply.com/en/store/winchesterreg;-gun-safe-24-gun-capacity) Either would be bolted to a concrete floor in a closet that is close to both sides and obviously the back. I may frame it into the wall completely when I am bored one winter day. Which of these two would you choose.
