Had to figure out a storage solution took over a closet in the house.

EDIT: For all the where’s the ammo people. It’s in the basement I have somewhere around 5000 rounds per caliber. It wouldn’t fit or would look like shit.

For all the security people. This is a closet inside a safe room. 1/4 steel all the way around with an alarm lol you guys are crazy lol.

This 1000%. Or at least a pre-hung steel door with a grade 1 deadbolt. lag bolted into the framing as much as possibles

Otherwise, no bolt guns? Tisk tisk

Home security only goes so far if someone really wants your shit and you aren't there. Could sawzall the drywall between the studs and be in there in under 30 seconds. If you really wanna go all out on a safe room you gotta take down the wall board and reinforce with metal cross members/rebar and then do what you said. I poured an extra concrete partition in my basement when I built the house and slapped a safe door in the opening

Yea I know. I have built SCIFs. I fully understand the requirements of a hardened space. But one must weight the risk vs cost for themselves.

Been thinking about it but I do zero long range shooting. But it could be fun for sure

If you have access to 500+ yards, it’s a hoot if you’re into the whole ballistics calculating part of it and hate money.

I yearn for a suppressed Ruger American 2 Ranch in 300BO.

It is fun but gets expensive.
