walshie Posted July 3, 2015 Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 (edited) 1: Probably. Would a hmr fit into a breakdown safe? Even if it did, you have to consider the depth as a scoped rifle takes up a lot more room than a shotgun. 2: Depends on the answer to 1: above.

markm Posted July 3, 2015 Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 Defno buy as big as you can afford. I have 2 x 3 shotgun, 1 x 5 shotgun and 1 x ammo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spandit Posted July 4, 2015 Report Share Posted July 4, 2015 I have an 8 gun cabinet and it's pretty cramped even though one of the 8 in it is a tiny little .410 folder. I've taken my air rifle out of it now (it's non-FAC) and might move the shotguns into another cabinet as planning on getting some more rifles...

Rim Fire Posted July 14, 2015 Report Share Posted July 14, 2015 Make sure its deep enough to take the scope on your rifle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
