If you can point me to a theft that invloved a crowbar to steal firearms I am happy to stand corrected, but most of us own safes as the police have dictated that a safe equals secure storage, not because we are worried about a burglar.

Im sure they were not all nicked with just a crowbar, but given that a battery powered disc cutter can be had for less than a couple of hundred quid and carried easily, I would be looking for the best cabinet you can afford, and fitting it in a manner to avoid easy criminal entry.

Not just for the cheapest one with a random BS number :)

Fair play, I stand corrected.. glad I don't live up north.

I am still happy with my storage, even if it is called Dirty Gun Pro.

You’ll get into even the most expensive cabinet in seconds with a cheap rechargeable angle grinder.
