Gun Cabinet

[V8landy]

Hi

 

I am looking to buy my first gun cabinet, any advice or tips?

 

I have seen this one on ebay!

Thanks

The cabinet on fleabay is okay and, if the bidding remains low, will be a bargain. You might be better off going to a RFD and picking one up yourself while saving on the delivery charges. A similar one to the one advertised sell for around 90 -100 pounds. Shop around and check out the prices. Also, ask yourself will you need a bigger sized cabinet in the future. It's easier to get a bigger one now and fill it as you go along, than to realise in time that the one you have now is too small. I found that out the hard way.

Hope this helps.

Look in the sales & put a wanted post for one.

S/H is cheaper.

I'm about to get a 6 rifle cab' & sell my 7 shotty cab'

Have a look here for general info then look at the "list"available for more info.

I'm going for a RL7 @ £209.

If you want one for rifles with scopes you need one around 12" or 300mm deep or you'll have to put them in sideways, hence my need of a change.

If you are new to the sport you are probably not yet at the point where you could ever consider filling one of these. However, you will.

 

Save yourself a load of time and aggro and just get one of these:

I think there is a smaller gun one as well with prices between £275 and £400 delivered.

 

EDIT:

 

Give these lot (the importers) a bell:

I got a Brattonsound cabinet at the local dealers. It was pretty cost effective and the cops liked it.

Brattonsound are spot on. Id recommend them any day. If its of use I have a secondhand 3 Shotgun cabinet for sale £65

[V8landy]

I complety understand what you are all saying about get the largest cabinet you can afard even if I just have one gun to start with.

 

Brattonsound has been recomened to me before.

 

Thanks for the offer triscrx but you are a bit far for collection.

I agree with the Brattonsound reccomendations - thats what I went for and its a serious safe (mine is an RL7+)

When the Firearms Officer came around when I applied for my SGC he took one look at it, said "oh, its a Brattonsound" and that was it - he was happy.
