Keep it civil.

I wanted a long gun locker. Why is it that I can only find 2 categories in the market:

  • flimsy cabinets that you could open without tools;
  • mega safes that will stand as a testament to humanity in 1000 years.

Where's my middle option?

Safes only keep snatch and grab guys honest. Unless you drop 10's of thousands, with reenforced walls from steel that it's mounted to, criminals can still break in with enough time.

What exactly are you wanting and what "location" are we working with (basement, apartment, 2nd floor, walled, ext)?

That's the use case, a deterrent. Heck, if the assailant takes the locker home, I'm fine with it, as long as I'm not a victim of my own guns.

Location is a closet in a home.
