I've got an magnetic LED light in there, but it still sucks. I designed my house and had it built about 10 years ago. I wasn't thinking about it then, but should have built a room onto the closet out of solid block and used a vault door. I'm close to needing a bigger safe....

Not really...... thankfully there's simply not the need here in the UK, and as fucked up as the UK has become in the past 15 years, its still not anyway near bad enough that its even a consideration, even among the shooting community.

Its simple. A few million crimes are foiled by legal firearm owners in the US. The murder rates are basically the same with or without guns. High profile crimes that change laws are a drop in the bucket when considered next to overall numbered of murders. Local police have told me they wish everyone without a record was carrying. This would dramatically reduce crime. States with carry laws typically have less gun crime. Carry permit holders have the lowest measurable amount of gun crime of any group including police. Politicians put up gun ownership restriction laws to get reelected and play on ignorant fears. All this does is leave criminals armed. Most gun crimes are committed by repeat offender felons. Make gun crime laws tough not ownership. Police do not protect you. They clean up the mess after you and your family is dead then try to catch the perpetrator so they don't do it again.
In England the weapon of choice shifted to chef knives after the gun grab. So now they are talking about banning those. What's next, cricket bats, lead pipes? |

It is 37Cf. Browning SR37 Wide. 100min 1680 degree fire rating. I ended up paying $2,700 delivered I believe (before tax). I am not as worried about someone breaking into it so I didn't need to beef up the 11Ga steel that is standard on that model which kept the price down.

I think they are more necessary here in the US for when Trump hits his 8 years and wants 4 more. Gotta be able to keep our government in check and having the population armed to the teeth is a good way to start.

Anybody in North East collect L C Smith? I have one , just sent for the factory letter to confirm configuration. According to serial number should have been produced in 1923, it is a field grade hammer-less , double trigger, not sure on gauge or choke (hence the letter.) Took it to a local gun shop they say it is in 70 percent original condition. This was my Dads , he passed away in 1980 and it has been in my closet since. Once I get further details and can fix a value will be looking to sell. If interested please PM, Thanks Tom.

I have a Benelli Cordoba shot gun which i've owned for some time now. 7 years maybe... The stock and fore end are getting a bit sticky. I emailed Benelli about it and they responded asking for my address telling me the parts would ship out immediately. Received the stock yesterday and the fore end should be shipping in a week once back in stock.
I went to their website to see how to remove the stock and saw that they sell replacement stocks and fore ends for $450 and $120 respectively. Very happy i didn't have to buy replacements!

Here IN Canadia land we can not have guns except if you are a farmer and kill sheepps or wolves etc.
I thought it would be plenty good to have a gun for defence of my homes , in case of an intruder. Knowing (shhhh dont tell) I managed to buy one from a nice man, he said it would be good to stop anyone coming in, including an elephant ! Not seen many Elephants here in Toronto, but then you never know. My question is, is it best to keep in under me bed or locked in a cubboard Problem is if it is locked up, at 3am I would have to fumble with keys. Then maybe I would be killed dead by an intruder OR said Elephant. hahaha I also want to practice on this gun, as I have never shot before. So I need to try and find a nice quiet place and maybe somone who can teach me to shoot Anyways ! Thanks |

No kids in your house or guests in your bedroom, keep it under the bed. if kids in the house or people in and out of your room, you may want to keep it locked up, pull it out at night, lock it back up in the morning. Practice with south of the border. If you shoot a burglar, don't you go to jail?

Good luck practicing anywhere but a range, and then you better have your PAL and ATT if it is restricted. Just go to Target Sports (or whatever it is) in Stouffville - they'll "rent" you guns to practice with. Oh - and not entirely true about not being allowed guns in this country. Just absurdly difficult and a long time consuming process. But once you get through the hoops initially, you can buy as many as you want with very little wait times. |

Yep, no questions asked. Just what was the serial number and my address. Boom, parts show up in the mail.

It would be similar to a proximity sensor switch from Amazon. Otherwise you could also do a momentary button switch if you don't mind drilling a small hole in the jamb of your safe.
