lets not get into that debate. arguing about the legality of using minimal storage and security provisions in a public forum at a time when many are looking to clamp down is just dumb. anyway there are bigger fish to fry at this point, detracting from the gun control issue.
So a small safe doesn't have to be bolted or chained down?
I'm just curious. I always thought it had to be but reading the storage regs alone, I see no mention of needing to.
Anyone ever owned any of the tactical wall stuff?
Not legally a safe FYI

The ones I have seen in person look cheap, and to me it looked off, like it didn’t belong. I don’t think it would fool someone for long. But possibly because most burglars are in a hurry it might get missed.
That wasn't my question. But since you brought it up, they lock, could be considered a "receptacle". I guess the only thing stopping it is that they can be "readily" broken into if someone knows what they are. One could argue that point though I'm sure.
The shelves and the mirror are certainly cool though..
A locking receptacle and safe are not the same thing. One requires trigger locks on does not. And the thread is about hand gun safes so do you not think the reasonable assumption would be every is talking about safes?

...I'm more inclined to have a small safe hidden in a wall or cabinet.
Best answer you can read on this siteYou do what ever you want to do, just stop telling people that what you choose to do is the law. A very, very large part of the problem is people parroting BS, like the above as law. That's how we end up with people believing we need trigger lock on all guns and they always have to be in cases and all the BS that people on this site alone claim is the law. Let alone what those people then tell others what the law is.
Sorry but when someone asks the question is "A" legal the answer is never make up some BS and claim it is the answer
Under law no it does not, is it a good idea yes
