Thread: B Cat Safe.... info required please.

Hi, long time... no post... sorry 'bout that, but here's a question for you.....

Is a Sentry Safes GM1459E a B cat safe?

it's a big heavy bugger measuring 60cm x 60cm x 150cm and weighs 180kg made from Hardened Steel and as a fire safe it can take 760C for 1/2 an hour with out any trouble..
It has been installed since 2012 now and was inspected and passed as OK when I applied for Firearms License. It was also passed as being fit for me to use as a safe to store pistols when I applied for my B some 3 years ago in but after today's visit by a "New" Firearms Vetting person who reckons now that it isn't any good for keeping B-cat or E-cat stuff in although it apparently was OK for the last 3 years and it hasn't been moved, it is exactly where it was when it was first installed in 2012.

Now this safe was sold new (I bought it new from Hunting and Fishing) as an A, B, C and E cat safe when I bought it and it's apparently been fine for B cat for the last 3 years (don't have any C or E cat stuff at present) but now I'm worried it may now be deemed unfit for B cat and I'll need to get another one or lose the guns.

Am I right in saying that these Sentry Safes GM1459E safes were sold as A, B, C and E cat safes?

And if so, does anybody have any idea where I can get proof that this is/was a B-cat safe.

Thanks in advance
