Thinking about picking up one of these... Any of you guys have one? Thoughts? Feedback?

I recently picked up one of the Sentry biometric pistol safes and I have been really happy with it.

Yep, I have had one of those for a while now and it works great.  Word to the wise, pick up some AA Lithium Ion batteries for it. Not only do they last a bit longer than regular batteries, but they won't leak acid and ruin your safe's electronics the way other batteries will either.

I have one of the sentry biometrics, too.  Costco had them for $100 around Christmas.  So far so good

Ditto. I would suggest practicing the finger swipe. Not that it's difficult or anything, but if you run your finger across it too quick you aren't getting your pistol

Recommended, mine works well.

I had one of the early versions of the gunvault bio and I had about a 50% success rate on the fingerprint and no backup keypad option.  I would not recommend them.

I have a gun vault bio and a gun vault keypad, if I was doing it again I would get another keypad version because it works every time. I often have to swipe 2-4 times on the bio to get it open, and if I've jacked my fingertips up at work it doesn't open. I also tested it with wet and bloody fingertips and it didn't work well at all.
