You've got the right idea. Do what you can and be able to show what you have done. Good insurance is better than any safe.
I have a few "sentimental" firearms that my dad and uncle had, but nothing that can't be replaced with $300-600.
Thanks for your opinion. Did your neighbor have a safe and or house alarm? Where did he live?
Indeed, every system can be beaten and has flaws. Do I have a $500 stack on safe? No. Feel free to apply your assumptions elsewhere.
Yep... the less people know about what you have makes it safer. No one is going to lug a plasma cutter into a house and risk jail time unless there's serious money to be had.
While safes don't stop proficient criminals from getting your stuff they deter/delay most from trying to get in. If one gets a decent safe, bolts it to the floor, and gets an alarm, you are in pretty good shape to protect your investment.
MSRP of $675 will probably come down over time. I wonder if the weight on the product page (31oz) is loaded or unloaded? If loaded it is roughly the same as a Glock 19... otherwise it would be sorta heavy for a polymer frame pistol.
If I see one I'll try and shoot it

Used to be a different company
I guess Thunder Valley just looked a lot further away for some reason. Only 15 minutes further than Briar Rabbit for me and the range is longer.
Bought a new scope for my uncle's 270 Winchester I inherited (Remington 721) so might try a really long range sometime.
