I'm moving into a new apartment soon and aside from the knowledge that 1st floor apartments are more likely to be burgled, and the need to at least put a study bar across my windows to keep anyone from forcing them without breaking the glass. I'm not especially worried about being robbed, it's not like I walk out of the house every day wearing designer clothes and lots of jewelry, or will have a giant tv and sound system sitting across from my chesterfield. About the only thing I have that would really catch a thief's eye would be my computer and the firearms I'm going to buy whenever my god damn PAL arrives (I never realized it was this damn slow!). Neither of which I intend to flash around to anyone but my friends and other trusted individuals.
However I still believe in being prepared, both in security measures, and space for future acquisitions, and was wondering what folks might suggest for a good solid container to get for my firearms? I was only casually browsing things right now since along with the PAL the apartment is being repainted and refloored and won't be done until another few more days, so I have time to shop around for a good deal on what I want/require. But one idea I was leaning toward was that I might go with a safe, rather than a cabinet, assuming that the former actually lives up to the name. That way it would be resistant to most intrusion attempts that would go unnoticed by my neighbors, and even be a useful storage location for money and personal documents.
And just for the sake of completeness, I'm planning to get an RFID pistol safe for the bedroom.
