It's an idea. Depending on the number and type of guns, it might not require a "safe" with a combination -- it could be one of those Homak gun cabinets with a key lock. I would consider asking a lawyer about such an agreement, and I would ask the owner of the firearms to sign a waiver indemnifying you in the event of any theft or damage.
Firearms on property, even behind lock, that are not accounted for. If the ATF gives the blessing, it is kosher. Apparently my friend didn't have it at the time. The guns were checked in under consignment, if I remember correctly.
