A general rule of thumb with safes is to take the number of guns you have, add two and then double it. Otherwise you'll be crowded and getting the one you want will be tricky.
The toxicity of lead varies, depending upon the weight of its doseage and its velocity!
You don't need an expensive gun safe. A wardrobe with a hasp and padlock can store over a dozen plus all your shooting kit. If you don't have children in your house then there is no requirement for secure storage.
If you top and tail the guns for example barrel up, barrel down you will find it easier to get 4 in a 4 gun safe. I had 4 guns which became 5 so another safe was bought second hand. Now I have a 4 and a 6 and the collection has gone up to 6. Don't tell the wife about it though because I have plenty of room left.
You can spend thousands and still miss a barn door or spend just enough and enjoy yourself. If you haven't got the talent to start with a million pound won't fix it. Whippet, Russell, a few bang sticks and a flat cap. http://www.smart-tech1st.co.uk
And the moral of the story ? Don't have kids !Originally Posted by Black Beard1
I have a childs wardrobe from Ikea for my airguns. The back is reinforced and secured to the wall and there is a padlock on the front. I'm not entirely finished yet but eventually the rifles will be anchored to the wall by a cable running through the trigger guards but it's location and front pad lock are enough to satisfy myself that I have taken reasonable precautions. The rifles are effectively anchored to the fabric of the house, the wardrobe is just built around them to keep the dust off and keep it tidy.
All of the guns are secured with toolflex tool holders which are strong enough to keep the rifles secured against the back of the cabinet and also strong enough to hold the pistols on the cabinet walls and doors.
Currently I have 5 rifles in the rack (4 with big scopes) with room for another one left over (If I move things around a little). There's also a 7 litre fill bottle in there (which can be used to fill the stored rifles without removing them), 17 pistols, 16 tins of pellets and an old DVD rack re-purposed as a set of small shelves (for magazines, oil, cleaning products, CO2 etc).
It works for me, doesn't look out of place and was reasonably cheap.

As our kids are now old enough to have their own guns, it's an old wardrobe - one of the real wood ones (gentlemans, as it has small shelves for hats & gloves that can take other stuff like pellets & pistols) that have an integral lock on the door - plus, of course it's an attractive bit of antique furniture
