The Connecticut Shooting and what guns owners should be doing

gunvault gunsafesWhile the rest of our media went into a hi-jacking over the entire incident, there is something beside the “mental health”  discussion.   Even though gun owners are by far, in the “more responsible” category of society, there is a large number that should do some examining on how guns fall in the hands of bad people and how just locking up EVERY firearm in your home is something of an added insurance if you do have a break in.  Not letting people know what you own and where you hide is a good idea, but even if you have a bed side firearm or a gun hidden in a part of your house, the quick access and modern technology that Gunvault safes have to offer can prevent theft or prevent a family member you don’t trust from finding them and and acquiring it.

I personally don’t think the Biometric safes are anymore effective in restricting access to firearms than a keylock or push pad but if it fits in with your comfort and you want that type of access it’s better than just hiding a firearm.    I have already witnessed several generations of Gunvault gunsafes and the modern versions are far more reliable than previous generations so be careful about how long ago you may have read any negative reviews.  Biometric technology has improved greatly but that doesn’t apply to everyone.   The Minvault is a good starting point if  you are only locking up 1 or 2 handguns and the Multivault is the next step up for locking up more than 2 handguns, jewelry or any other important items.  The Nanovault and Microvault are big “car safes” sellers.

Is your wifes jewelry locked up?

I have suggestion for all of my friends with firearms that are looking to get another gun safe or want to upgrade to something better than what they have.   I have an older model gunvault gun safe that I have to admit, is pretty out dated and there are some design flaws that have been addressed by the newer models.   When the batteries get weak on the older model, the door does not always kick open and after having a failure, I did some research and got a newer one.   A gun safe should be as reliable as a firearm and if you have one that is  not, get rid of it.

All of us have different financial backgrounds, but for those of you that have an investment in jewelry, talk to your wife about locking up all of here diamonds and gold and put it in a gunvault gun safe.   The benefits of putting it in something like this is that it will be somewhat fire proof out of sight, but be easy to access when she’s getting all dolled up for a night out on the town.   If it’s easy to get out, it’s easy to put back in.   For only about $100 you can both lock up a firearm or diamond necklace in the same place.  The deluxe models can easily handle 2 or 3 firearms and your wifes stuff.
