Very nice, congrats!

:lol:

Lmao!

Do they not have anything in stock they could substitute the missing items (whichever they are today) so they can complete your order?

+1 more NO vote :)

  Wow, I have 4 complete lowers waiting on uppers but dang if this ain't a good deal. I went through a couple numbers in the cart from 1 to 5 lowers, and shipping was 15 bucks for all. 

I'm in the stand as well. No deer but crows are going off about 100 yds from here! Something has them gassed up.

Glad it worked out, very nice! Now enjoy!

I actually looked at the 24 gun safes but it was obvious that if I was to utilize the shelves on the side of the divider for accessories, I'd be stuck with exactly the same amount of room for long guns. Long gun room was my problem so that was immediately out. I'd still love to have it in the house, but in the new house, I'll go through the trouble of putting supports under the floor for that.   I will probably run two rods in mine as well along with the silica gel just to overkill it. I have no way to heat and cool the garage and won't be able to change that while here. But I'm happy for now.

I'm really hopeful that this one will last for a long time, being enough that is. I reckon I could buy a smaller one later for accessories and use this for guns only.

It's in, the wife likes it, which means I don't have to live in the garage with the safe, which makes me happy and now I can enjoy my new safe :up: Installed my 3 light strip, and while putting my shelves in I noticed something plugged into the socket. It's LED lights in the door that come on when the door is open WOW nice surprise! I am SO glad I got the big'n!

Luke, so sorry to hear this! We will be praying for her comfort, as well as for you and the family.

  This is what I have for right now.   Plan on getting a Golden Rod as mentioned here and every other forum I've been reading but this will do until then:   http://www.tractorsupply.com/en/store/cannon-safe-inc-gunsaver-dehumidifier-rod-102042399--1   Along with this rechargeable:   http://www.tractorsupply.com/en/store/cannon-safe-inc-silica-gel-dehumidifier-102042299--1   These will be placed in corners of the safe:   http://www.tractorsupply.com/en/store/stack-on-dessicant-pack-of-4   And for beginning light source:   http://www.tractorsupply.com/en/store/stack-on-motion-sensitive-3-light-directional-led-light-103965799--1

Ain't that the truth, and I can't afford that right now. This is actually a huge jump over what I have now so I'm happier than a pig in slop.    I've been on the phone with one of my best friends talking about my decision making thoughts. He went through the same thoughts, flipping back and forth. He ended up putting it in the garage and bolting it down. He said at first he hated knowing they were out there, but is really happy that he did it and glad because it's bolted down to concrete. He also didn't really like all the weight over a crawlspace even though people do it all the time.    It's Friday night and I'm getting the safe tomorrow so I'm going to put it in the garage, bolt it down for security, and go overkill on humidity control, and probably be glad I did after it's done. If somewhere down the road I just can't take it, I'll buy the boys more food and we'll move it again  :up:  (If they want to ha ha)   I really want to thank all of you for your input and putting up with my indecisiveness!  :surrender:

I would much rather a place say "We build these to order and it's Christmas time so it may not ship as fast as usual" versus "In Stock" and find out later that it's going to be 2 or 3 weeks. At that point, I get to make the decision on whether the savings out weighs the wait time. If not, I'll pay more somewhere else. Some things I'm never in a hurry for, some things I'll want faster and pay more for so I'll buy local, which also lets me put my eyes and hands on it if I want to. Although most of us know that around big sales at holiday times, there probably will be a delay in shipping, but the In Stock leads us to believe it's going to ship soon. Not always the case.   That being said, Aero seems to have quality stuff and I hope they get you squared away.

I went ahead and ordered another one of these this morning.   http://palmettostatearmory.com/index.php/sights-optics/shop-by-brand/bushnell/bushnell-ar-optics-1-4x24mm-bdc-riflescope-and-burris-pepr-mount-2.html

That was amazing, especially when it showed from inside how little room for error there was. Sheesh!

Great video! Thanks for sharing.

This is another thing that keeps popping up as well. The peace of mind of being in the house is winning right now.

  If we were staying here, that's exactly what I'd do and run a vent to it off the heat a/c and eliminate a lot of the issues of garage kept safes. But not going to be here long enough to do that. If plans change, then I may go this route after all.

It actually faces the road but the big garage door is the only way to get in. So they'd have to move my extra vehicle to gain access through a garage door with log chains wrapped around the tracks on both sides. I know they could bust through it but that would make a lot of noise and take away from the passersby thinking they were supposed to be in there. I was looking at some of my tools in the garage tonight to check for anything with rust from the temp fluctuating, while clearing a possible spot for the safe. Even old pieces of metal to see if anything was noticeable and I didn't find anything that stood out. So it may be okay especially with the precautions I'd be taking. As mentioned before I'd probably have to worry more about the outside of the safe than the inside. A bed sheet to keep nosey people from seeing it would be fine with me also along with ladders and such propped up against the side to break up the outline.   As for the house, it's a back spare room with a spot cleared already in the corner of an outside wall with support from the blocks under the house. I am going to look tomorrow to see how far apart the supports are because a guy at work said his were 24" centers. I thought DANG! That would suck! I guess I could block it up like you said, but that also brings up the planned move sometime next year and if it's worth it when I can slap it in the garage. I honestly wish I only had one place it would go and make it easy ha ha.

  During this whole ordeal I had two decisions to make: Medium, but bigger than the one I have, or big one? Garage or in the house?   Got the first part done, now I'm flipping back and forth. I don't know why, it just seems like I'd be happier with them in the house. If I end up going with the garage I will get a stall pad from TSC. Won't crush or get mushy, and for $50 to keep moisture off the bottom of the safe it's worth every penny.  I've already got a place cleared out in the house so I reckon we'll give it a try and see if it goes. If not, I'll put it in the garage. I'll truly get to enjoy having the safe once it's moved in and I'm loading it up :)

  I actually bought it today, so I got the $999 price. It seems like I read somewhere that TSC has a 14 day grace period if you buy something and it goes on sale within that time, they'll give you the difference back? I'd have to ask to see if it's still that way though. But thankfully, I got it after it went on sale.

 Just in case anyone else is in the market, these were $1299 yesterday, marked down to $999. They had 3 more left I think at the Smyrna location when I left this morning. Also the website says 608 lbs, the sticker on the side of the safe says 680 lbs. FYI.   I'm leaning more towards leaving it in the garage since I'm going to be adding quite a bit of weight to that 680. I bought the Cannon brand dehumidifier bar and also a can with the rechargeable pellets in it. I'm thinking that along with random bags of desiccant (spelling?) should be okay in the garage to keep humidity to a minimum?
