In the modern world, hunting lovers can be not only men, but also the fair sex. Both will need a special metal safe to store weapons. Not many people know that choosing the right size hunting rifle safe is not as simple a task as it might seem. You should take into account all the rules for storing firearms, which are spelled out in the Laws of the Russian Federation.
Safe Sizing Rules
The law clearly provides that the storage of firearms and ammunition must be in separate metal boxes. But, in most cases, the owners ignore this rule and for their own convenience, as well as to save free space in the room, they choose one, but quite spacious safe, where they put the gun and all the accessories to it.
It is quite simple to determine the necessary and sufficient size of the safe: the weapon must freely enter the safe in disassembled form (it is forbidden to store a gun assembled!). At the same time, all elements of the gun are folded into a special case (holster) and placed in a safe.
A horizontal or vertical model of the safe, as well as installed on the floor, suspended from a wall or mounted in a wall - this is at the discretion of the owner of the weapon.
Features of choosing a safe for a hunting rifle
To accurately choose a safe for storing firearms, you should consider the following points:
- The most important thing when choosing a safe is to decide on the type of lock for it. Mechanical (coded), traditional (with a key), combined or electronic (according to the biometric data of the owner) - the lock must be a guarantee of the inviolability of the weapon without the knowledge of the owner.
- The level of fire resistance of the safe and the strength of the material of its manufacture will also become additional conditions for the reliable safety of a hunting rifle.
- The appearance of the safe is the subjective preference of the hunter. The owner of the weapon can choose the demo models of the safe and present their own hunting rifle for everyone to see /admire. In this case, it is recommended to choose a safe with a transparent door made of bullet-proof fire-resistant glass. Or, on the contrary, if you want to hide the weapon from the eyes of visitors away, you can mount the safe into the wall, which will make this element of the room's interior completely invisible.
- The inside of the safe must have special sections for ammunition, permitting documents for this weapon, a recess for the butt of a gun. Recognized manufacturers finish the inner surface of the safe with a soft material, and under it - an additional fire-resistant layer�
