[QUOTE="Wolf44, post: 2306055, member: 13895"] $600 save your money and buy something that will do something more than locking a door. [B]These are my opinions[/B]- since some companies are now suing people for speaking the truth about a product and their experiences with that company. U need to decide if you want fire, theft, or both. Each one adds $$$$. So if you really just want a portable closet that locks, buy a cheap Stack On or whatever weighs 50-80#'s and save your money. Best bang for the buck for a quality and actual US made safe is [B]Champion[/B] Trophy series. It will meet the fire specs, although not 7 guage steel so theft is a possible. If you want both - fire for certain and increased theft protection = [B]SturdySafe[/B], Ft Knox, Graffunder, etc. But it will blow your wallet to get thicker steel and options for Diamond plate etc..... Finally - bolt it down, yah thats fine, it gives thieves a nice sturdy base to cut and pry against.......any safe without diamond plate or <8ga steel. Everyone carries portable tools / cutters = food for thought. Don't get sucked into the Cannon, Liberty, Browning, Winchester bla bla bla models . Find a distributer who carries multiple lines to hopefully acquire the truth on build quality and fire protection ratings - and where they are Truly Built with materials from ???. Also, check out Sturdy Safe's website and watch the vids. Even if you don't buy one, get educated. I've seen Patriot and some others, but have yet to determine their backgrounds/builds and materials quality. There is a company here in OKC I think, [B]Bear Safe[/B]s I believe, and would be worth a visit due to local" [/QUOTE]
