Quality Concerns with the Gun Safe

Gun safes are among those things in life that you only buy American made. Before you buy research the manufacturer to ensure they are made in the USA.
Other things you should research when shopping for your gun safe include:

Fire ratings. While no gun safe is fire proof many of them are fire rated meaning that the manufacturer will guarantee the safety of the contents under a certain number of degrees for a certain length of time

Air tight. To protect the contents from humidity and corrosion you want your safe to have an air tight seal

Customer satisfaction. Search for the safe online and read reviews from past customers
