wildgoose1uk Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 Generally seems to be that if they can pull it off the wall it fails and if they can't then it passes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boromir Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 Does the gun safe move when you pull on it? If it doesn't then you'll be alright. Its the one on the walls that matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CZ550Kevlar Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 Your FEO will use reasonable force to try to move your cabinet, basically he gives it a tug, if you do the same thing and it doesn`t budge you are just fine and dandy.

Birdboy Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 You will be surprised how little he will look at it/rattle it ! Dont worry, make a luke warm coffee for him (no too hot as he will be there longer !). It will be fine. 10 mins, hes gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MM Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 I found that when using anchor bolts, if your walls are out it can bend the cab slightly. Tighten them up gingerly as not to distort the shape. I added a whole tube of pink snot on the base and the back, then two anchor bolts in the top rear holes. The two bottom rear holes had to have wooden plugs put into the wall (old school, i know ) and then two large washered screws put in. A few more in the base, and this deffo was not moving.

AIRARMSTX200 Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 what i would do is take the loose bolt out squirt some no nails in tha hole.put the bolt back in and gently tighten then leave to dry should be solid as concrete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
