Flooding is a major concern as insurance may not cover your guns or safe. How about tornados? A safe on the main floor in a tornado will be gone. A few years ago thieves took a huge safe from the back of the store and rolled it out of the building and jacked it into a truck. The safe was sitting on a tiled concrete floor. They used dish soap as a lube and slid the thing right out the door by pulling it with a rope.
I would use the basement and let it sit on a 4 x 4 wood frame (pallet?) You can cover the wood with carpet.
I would also strongly suggest a second safe-put it in your bedroom and fill it with some loose coins and weights. They will always try take the small safe.
I heard on guy had his filled with silver salutes or M-80 fire crackers. The thieves used a torch-very dead thieves. With some luck they might pinch off a few fingers stealing the bait safe
