Rapid style gun safe.

[Twilk73]

I have kids so I'm looking to keep a loaded ar-15 inside a rapid style safe. What have you guys found success with? My current setup is going to get me killed in a home invasion just trying to get in the safe.

The only one I have is a Vaultek. They don't come cheap, but I have no complaints so far, other than having to remember to charge the battery. The fingerprint pad actually does work, which surprised me.

I would go with a simplex lock. Fort Knox makes excellent safes of this type.

1. Get a trigger lock.

2. Put the loaded magazine in the gun and keep the chamber empty.

3. Install the trigger lock on the gun.

4. Keep the key on a chain around your neck.


Problem solved.

A quick access long gun security box is so much easier.

I like this one:

Works great behind a curtain, or on a wall in a closet hidden behind some clothes. Very fast to open.

For an AR like the OP asked about I recommend the SecureIt Fastbox line.

You can set them up flat under your bed, or upright bolted to a wall.

Vaultek had what looks to be the fastest access so long as it works. They have the button you can place anywhere and press to open the door. Is it reliable though?

I want to minimize the amount of work needed to access the defensive item so that when panic kicks in and my hands don't work I can maximize in my opinion the level of success I might have. Plus there is no defence against an ambush other than to be as ready as possible as quickly as possible.

I have one. The electronic lock is garbage. It works correctly about 50% of the time. At half the price, sure. But it’s overpriced Chinesium in my opinion.
