As Black Friday approaches, many of us are starting to think about the best deals we can score, especially when it comes to securing our firearms. Finding a good gun safe not only ensures that our weapons are stored safely but also keeps them out of reach from unauthorized users, especially kids. I’m reaching out to see if anyone has tips or experiences to share about shopping for gun safes during this sales frenzy.

What to Consider When Buying a Gun Safe on Black Friday

  • Size and Storage Capacity: Think about how many firearms you need to store. It’s often a good idea to buy a safe that offers more space than you currently need, as your collection may grow.
  • Fire Rating: Check the fire rating on the safe. A safe should ideally withstand high temperatures for several hours to protect your valuables from fire damage.
  • Security Features: Look for safes that have good locking mechanisms, whether they’re digital or combination locks. Some safes come with biometric locks for added security.

Where to Look for Deals

  • Local Gun Shops: Sometimes, local stores have better deals or exclusive sales during Black Friday than large retailers.
  • Online Retailers: Major online platforms often have competitive prices. Look for reviews of the safes you’re considering before buying.
  • Comparison Websites: Utilize websites that track sales and can compare prices across different retailers to ensure you get the best deal.

Brands to Consider

Some popular brands that are typically recommended include:

  • Fort Knox
  • Liberty Safe
  • Stack-On
    Most people here have good experiences with these brands, but it’s always useful to hear diverse opinions on specific models.

I recommend checking out the Barska Biometric Safe. It’s quick access and very secure. Just don’t lose your fingerprints!

I’ve used the Barska, and while it’s easy to access, the battery does die unexpectedly sometimes. Just a heads up!

From my experience, the Rhino Metals gun safes are great for the price, especially around Black Friday. Solid construction and lots of room.

I had a horror story with an electronic lock! It failed right when I needed it. I prefer manual locks after that fiasco.
