im wondering. i never had a safety deposit box at a bank. no idea whats involved but i hear its for valuables. whats more valuable than a good handgun?

does the law allow this? do banks allow this? are the safety deposit boxes checked? are there cameras in there? i don't even know how big they are and if a glock 19 would even fit.

this would be for a spare handgun of course.
The boxes come in all different sizes. I think a full-size pistol would fit in the smallest box just fine. If not, rent one size larger.

The bank doesn't even want to know what's in your box. Just bring it in in a money pouch or a briefcase. Perfectly legal -- in most states anyway.

Are you sure about that? You might be right, I guess, but that sounds more like a dormant savings or checking account.
