StackOn makes a series of wall safes that are inexpensive and very secure. (they're California DOJ approved, if that means anything...). They come in a variety of sizes that will hold anything from pistols to rifles. They mount flush in the wall between to studs and are secured to the studs with lag bolts. Not everyone has the space or for a full sized gun safe and these units work great. Price for the largest one is around $100. You can order them through ebay, Walmart, etc and often score free shipping.Another reason to keep your kid off social media and the internet in general!
No smart phones!
Of course by the time my kids get old enough to have them who knows what will be out there.
I was really wanting to start spending some money on another firearm and ammo, but my next couple purchases will be a couple quick access safes. One for down stairs and an AR shotlock for the master closet.
Man kids make things complicated.
I was looking at those and I like them. I may still get one. The thing with the StackOn's though is that when the door is closed there is nothing in sight. Also, you can store extra things in them. They come with a little shelf for ammo, passports, etc. I Gorilla glued a couple of Harbor Freight magnets on the door to hold magazines.I thought about those but I do like the AR shot lock.
Quick access and pretty secure.

They are around $200, but I wouldn't need to cut a hole on my wall.
And at least the mom on the episode defended herself at first. Yes I have a gun. There is nothing wrong with that. Back off...
Yeah I agree. I don't keep everything in the StackOn. I also have several Gun Vaults with the finger key things. Those work great. You have to think in terms of strategery when setting up you're house. StackOn also has some keypad safes.The only thing I don't like about the stack on is it's a key lock. When it's 2am and dark and your fumbling putting a key in a lock? Also one more thing to keep hidden or out of reach from the kids.
I like the idea to just carry all the time, but when I'm at home it's T-shirt and under armor shorts. Not the best carry wear. Unless I get some waist belt or something.
the issue is not to prevent kids from getting at them... except for the VERY young, the same ones from whom we guard poisons, knives, chainsaws, etc.So I'm embarassed to say because of my wife I watch Grays anatomy. Tonight's episode was about two 8yr olds that found one of their mother's guns and one of them accidentally gets shot in the stomach and paralyzed.
And of course most of it is about how we don't need guns, guns are bad, blah, blah, blah. And it was really hard to watch the liberal rhetoric in it.
But the one good thing is it's a reminder about making sure your weapons are locked up and out of your children's reach.
So where's the line between keeping firearms handy for protection and keeping them secure from your little ones?
I have two handguns not in my safe and available for protection. They are well out of reach from my 3 1/2 year old, but I know much sooner than anyone ever expects.
What do you guys and girls do with your firearms and children?
