    Last time I got a S43A off them I was being driven home from hospital by my wife. She went in as I could barely walk. One of the AOs came out and completed the form on my car bonnet - not bad service.

    Use a trubolt not a dynabolt. Just make sure you drill your holes straight as you'll need to fit the safe over the bolts.

    @stug

    Correct

    The BOLT has to be 10mm in diameter, therefor you will need a 12mm Dyna Bolt if you choose this method of fixing.

    @moonyading you may also use a concrete bolt that has a diameter of 10mm, these are available at mitre 10 and are easier to install than Dyna bolts.

    Do they just screw in Pete?
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    I got my B endorsement signed by an AO at Manukau and she was definitely not a dude and extremely helpful. I guess it helped that I am the stud muffin I am.

    Position you safe in its final place, drill the correct size hole with your masonry bit, screw the bolt in with a socket and a strong arm bar.

    Jobs done.

    Cool. I will be doing just that in a couple of weeks. Not this weekend though Pete.

    I would make sure the AO is ok with concrete screws before you fit them for maximum ass coverage.
