I'm moving into my own place, and feel the need to go from trigger locks to a locking metal cabinet. I'm not really looking for quick access or extreme security, just want to make it harder for someone to walk off with my grand-dad's 1894 Winchester, etc.
In looking at them, I keep seeing these awkward cabinets that are square (seen from the top or bottom) that are "16" or "10 but actually hold 6-10 if you awkwardly interweave them. The best I've seen are rated 12-16 and can actually fit about 5-8 in a row, but any more than that end up on the sides blocking or bumping the others. The inside dimensions of this one *here* are pretty cool, but ... the whole thing still has a square footprint?
Why? Why not make them 10 inches deep and 2 feet wide like the wood/glass cabinets? Is it about people not tipping them over on themselves?
