I needed something to secure my nightstand gun now that we have young hands in the house so I just finished installing a new GunVault MicroVault in my bedroom.
My nightstand and bed frame sit so low they do not offer a lot of room for front opening safes and I do not like how the drawer safes often have trouble opening fulling inside a drawer (especially if the drawer is shallow or not fully open).
This seems to work just fine. It is slim enough to slide under the nightstand or bed and easily pull out when needed. The digital combo makes it fast to open too.
For a little added security I secured it to the back wall by installing a 2.5" eye hook into the stud. It would take a very strong man many pulls to ever break it loose. It is not fool proof but would slow down a snatch and grab thief and prevent my son and his friends from hauling it out of my room.
Please pardon the lack of base moulding. I am repainting the mouldings upstairs and have gotten lazy about putting the ones for our bedroom back.
