The alternative is an old oak gun cabinet with glass doors that takes zero effort to break into...Varmintmist said:The more you pay, the better the safe. Pretty simple.
The question is is how much good that extra will do you? If the safe is in the basement and the house catches on fire and the whole thing collapses in, the firearms are outta luck and it wont matter a bit if you paid 1200 or 5000. If it is a smaller fire, the 5K safe may help.
As to protection, as was stated, unless you have nothing in your garage but a weedwacker, it can be opened.
