Looking for a fire-proof gunsafe in Minnesota. Any thoughts or ideas on best bang for the buck would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike

I went with the Fort Knox Defender. Just get it BIG enough thats the most talked about problem people report.

I also bought the Fort Knox. Price included dilivery and bolting down. At the same time I bought their humedfier, about $15.00 when purchased with the safe. This was about 7 years ago and I'am happy.

I looked for months. If money is no issue then buy the $3000-$5000 safe. All you are doing is buying time. Any safe can be broken into. I settled for one around $1000 and is designated as a "residential security container" as most home "safes" are. Anything is better than nothing. Be sure to bolt it down.
