BUT....until I get a home security service by BRINKS or ADT (something I'll probably be able to afford sooner than a stand up rifle vault), I definitely will install this COOL amazing and inexpensive phoney surveillance cameras at my front and back doors.
Check this out guys!

AEA,
a 2.0 cu. foot safe is relatively "small", right?

When you said:
"Oh, and I recommend that you get a safe with a real combination lock and not battery operated push buttons.
They are OK for small safes, but for large safes, you should have a REAL Safe Lock".
And the keyboard(safe) is backed up by a key, I'll carry on my key ring(not just batteries).
Would that be alright.....until I someday "graduate" to a LARGE vault safe that can store rifles too, friend?[/quote]

I use a sentry fire safe, its around 2c/f and should fit all of your handguns just fine. I got it at Sams for right around $150 with an electronic keypad (Im with you, I prefer that to keys or dial combos).
I think most wal-marts have a similar one so you can look there if you arent a sams member.

Tallmike,
I like key "back ups" in-case I ever forget the keypad combination....but just not dials.
Well, as is my nature.....I research intensively and make quick decisions.
Mine cost the same as yours and is 2 cu. ft., but minimally fire protection.
I heard folks advocating both kink vehemently (fire retarded...and minimally not) The "minimal fire protection guys where bringing up that the fire retardant was so moisture prone that every steel object in the was sure to rust. So, I got bags of desiccant and minimal fire retardant protection.
thanks everyone!
