Lloyd90 Posted October 30, 2016 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 (edited) Looking at these two gun cabinets. They look exactly the same to the eye, one is branded GDK and the other is unbranded but looks the same. Do you think there will be any difference ? I already have a Brattonsound btw but its at my parents house ATM, will be moving it in the future, so this is like a back up / temporary cabinet, when I move house in the next year both cabinets will likely go into the new home.

bluesj Posted October 30, 2016 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 the gdk one has an ammo safe in it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DIVERD Posted October 30, 2016 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 I have an 8 gun brattonsound and an 8 gun unbranded one, and there is no noticeable difference in them, the both work exactly the same and are both totally sound. If starting again i would just buy a couple of unbranded ones and save a couple of hundred easily! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glenlivet Posted October 30, 2016 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 Dangerous to have an empty cabinet, you'll get overwhelming urges to buy guns to fill the space... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrowningB525 Posted October 30, 2016 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 I can't see any problems with the cheaper one. Just make sure you bin the included fasteners and use something better. I'd use resin anchors personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd use resin anchors personally. No good for current rented house but maybe in the future. Going to bin those crappy bolts though and use something a bit more sturdy!

B25Modelman Posted October 31, 2016 Report Share Posted October 31, 2016 (edited) I don't keep ammo anywhere near the guns. Even if locked. I first thought "drop shipping" but the lower priced one shows no stock. Edited October 31, 2016 by B25Modelman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunman Posted November 2, 2016 Report Share Posted November 2, 2016 Try looking at "The Safe Shop " in Preston I got a good deal on a 6 gun cabinet delivered . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lloyd90 Posted November 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 Arrived yesterday! I read some good and some bad reviews for GDK cabinets, stories of some arriving bashed up etc. This one has arrived VERY well packaged, bubbled wrapped, inside a box and bubble wrapped again. Very fast delivery, also I accidentally put an old address on my PayPal and a quick phone call and they sorted it in 5 mins. Safe is huge and appears well made. Not as solid as my Brattonsound but seems more spacious and well upto the job. Wish I'd just bought one of these first time round tbh.
