These are so common now that the first thing anybody is going to think of when they see them is that there is a gun hidden in there.

I don't know what is in the interior of that but if it's foam, keep in mind that open cell foam can retain moisture and is not idea for storing firearms longterm.

Also consider carefully if you're ok with the lock mechanism. Most of those have some type of magnetic type lock which essentially requires a key to get into. That means you have to always have the key on your person or close by to access it. Roll out of the shower and hear a bump...gotta get that key before you can access your weapon. And stashing the key somewhere close by defeats the purpose of a lock in my opinion. Thieves are smart and can find things. And I gotta believe it sucks being shot with your own gun if you walk in on the robbery when it's going down. Those things have also been around long enough for thieves to be familiar with them and know what is probably in there.

For a quick access safe I want a mechanical simplex lock. No keys. Nothing electric that requires batteries...which can die. YMMV. That is a very nice flag though. I definitely like it as an art piece. Just not sure I would stash my guns in there.

I have one and do not store firearms in it for exactly the reason The Heretic mentioned. Nice patriotic art though.

Thanks a lot for the input guys. Definately making me rethink things. Had no idea they were so common. maybe I will build something very less common but more accessable. My work really needs to fire back up before I kill my savings account.

I prefer the more generic types - like a mirror with a compartment embedded in the wall, or something like that.
