I have an original AR57 and have the same D shaped case mouth.

I have gotten several calls after hours at my office from the "NRA" (at least that's what the caller ID says) and others from the same area code. They called a couple of weeks ago for 3 or 4 days straight. We don't answer after hours calls since we have voice mail. As such, I don't know what they wa...

Re: Gun Safe
I ended up getting the American Security SF6032 from a gun show this past weekend. There is plenty of room now and for the future. Thanks to everyone for your advice and opinions. Now my wife will have to find something else to say we need before I can get another gun (PS90 anyone? ).

Re: Gun Safe
Please please please take your ammo out of your safe! If you have a fire, your safe will protect your guns from the fire, but it won't protect them from the powder in each of those bullets that starts to burn off when the temperature rises from the fire outside. If you feel the need to store your a...
Re: Gun Safe
I added the pistol holders - they stick on via velcro strips that are sewn into the back side of the holsters. I have never had one come loose in over a year of use and they hold fully loaded guns easily, even my son's big-ass 357. I think this is where I got them from: http://dsafe.stores.yahoo.ne...

Re: Gun Safe
Get a big ass one because you'll always be wanting new guns. In my opinion, some sort of traditional key over-ride is an absolute must. Electronics can and most likely will fail. I don't know what a good heating rating would be, but they are rated for a certain time at a certain temperature, so mak...

Thankfully he or his sister was not hurt. Those gangbangers got what they deserved. +1 and 1.
