Just asking because I'm safe shopping (in an abstract sort of way) too and I had been looking at Cannons.

Well, they are not $5000 safes. These are decent safes but bottom of the line as far as safes go. They will probably stop smash and grabs and even some attempts to break in. I just hear of lots of members here with $2-5000 safes. I cannot afford that, I do not have the room and I don't want to be lugging 1000 pounds of safe in the house. My hallways and such will not allow me to do that.

I think I am going to go with the Dakota safe for just that reason. They are modular, will fit my available space, can easily fit through my confined hallways into my closet, etc, etc, etc. I just think they are a minimum type of protection. But right now all I have is one of those Stack-on cabinets. It was fine when I had 2 guns and little kids. But now, my collection is growing, my kids are grown and I need better protection. (Sounds like I am dating. )
