    What to do with safe keys/spare

    Hey guys

    Moved to a new place and I'm coming up short finding places to keep my safe keys, and I'm after suggestions! I'm not asking for your location and address, just ideas. I've got one place in mind, and considered leaving the spare at the mrs place but she's not licensed so I figure that's a bad idea and I don't have any friends that live in auckland that are licensed! All less than ideal.

    Thanks in advance everyone!

    Where ever you leave your spare key it cannot be accessed by any unlicensed person.

    Arms officer, during relicensing interview, asked my unlicensed wife if she knew where I kept my safe key and did she have access to it.

    She answered I don't have a clue where it is.

    He said good answer.

    If you knew where the key was then in theory you have access to said firearms.

    Cheers

    I know, that's where I'm running short of ideas. I'm the only person in my house with a license so it's pretty tough going!

    Just keep them somewhere out of sight, it doesn't matter where. You're not required to lock your keys away.

    Im pretty certain if you doin a bit of robbery in your downtime and come across a gun safe its almost a 50/50 chance that the main set of keys will be sat squarely on top or at least close proximity to it let alone the spares.
