    Police will be hell of an interested in that lot.
    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

    Not even mu missus knows where my key is and my gun safe is 6mm thick. with two different locks.
    I have had a 303 stolen years ago before i made my own safe and it gives you the shits... similarly they took only guns and hunting gear (and a cray out of the freezer out of a whole shed packed with gear.

    They should be,BUT generally "sporting goods' as they are known as, are only insured up to a maximum specified value. Mine are covered specifically under " collections" but I hope never to find out if there are any fishooks to this. I am with "am i insured" and so far their service is rubbish, of the 2 claims we have had on the house they were looking for a way of getting out of paying from the get go.

    . I have an Eotech sight I dropped and now not functional sitting in the cupboard cause I don't want to jack up my premiums by claiming on it even though replacement is well over 15 hundy new. Its not worth the expense to send it back to the US for repair as paperwork cost for import/export to US more than buying another here.

    Speaking from experience Photograph every gun Have current valuation Some sports shops are considered to "know enuff" to help out but check their credability
    scuse my spelling suspect not good But cross it off before it happens or your gonna get boned twice instead of once . Its one of those things you need to be up front and assure yrself you and your ins co are on the same page about . If you get no satisfaction or are left unsure get it sorted before you need to or its gonna hurt
    Make a good list take pics get valuations from a good gunshop replacement is usaualy way harder if you have problems.
    Dead is better likes this.
