op mentioned having a couple long guns. And when buying a safe its always a good idea to spend a little more and get a bigger safe than to completly fill a small one and buy another small one. Its something you going to keep your life. I only needed a safe for probably 10 long guns and pistols, but i bought a 60 gun just because over a lifetime you never know how much you will aquire or how much other things will actually end up in it. Like op mentioned it will not only be a gun safe.
