    Getting an E-Cat safe

    I've got a bit of expendable cash at the moment so I've decided to upgrade my security to an E-Cat safe. I'm looking at either

    SentrySafe E-Cat 14-Gun Combination Dial Lock Safe - Hunting and Outdoor Supplies.

    or

    15 Gun A-Cat, B-Cat, C-Cat and E-Cat Gun Safe

    I've pretty much decided on the Sentry safe as it's a trusted name and it's cheaper. My question is though are all E-Cat safes A, B, C & E Endorsed or is there another step to get them approved for B, C-Cat. Let me know if there is another safe around this price mark I should look at. My final consideration (not to start a shit fight) is what do I do about locking blots and ammunition separately? Ammo tin with a pad lock or what?

    Eion


    Edit: I think I remember on of the lads on here has a store that sells safes. Would prefer to give him my business if it wont cost me to much more. Anyone put me onto who that was?

    Yep, all E cat safes are sweet for pistols, collectables. One safe to rule them all!

    ^ what he said.

    I picked up a Buffalo River 10 gun E safe from Reloaders for my B license, it just happens to hold all my other rifles in it as well. Personally I feel the wise thing to do is spend the money and get the right thing for the job - don't skimp and try to save. Each to their own though.

    Ive got one of those. They aren't too bad except for the mainfreight monkey banging it around and knocking the coating off it.

    hehe, you should've had my delivery guys. 2 very large Tongan boys who threw it onto a carrier and wheeled it into the garage, then they grabbed it by the sides and moved it to near the door, all without breaking a sweat. When I went to move it into the gun room I thought the bloody thing was already bolted into the concrete. Heavy safe is heavy
