    Alternative Gun Storage besides a Safe

    Anybody who is home based FFL have an alternative suggestion besides a safe? I outgrew mine quickly and debating about buying more safes or building a "vault" but unsure of the requirements. Can someone explain the difference between #1 and #3?


    (a) Except as provided in subdivisions (b) and (c) of Section 26805, any time when the licensee is not open for business, all inventory firearms shall be stored in the licensed location. All firearms shall be secured using one of the following methods as to each particular firearm:

    (1) Store the firearm in a secure facility that is a part of, or that constitutes, the licensee’s business premises.

    (2) Secure the firearm with a hardened steel rod or cable of at least one-eighth inch in diameter through the trigger guard of the firearm. The steel rod or cable shall be secured with a hardened steel lock that has a shackle. The lock and shackle shall be protected or shielded from the use of a boltcutter and the rod or cable shall be anchored in a manner that prevents the removal of the firearm from the premises.

    (3) Store the firearm in a locked fireproof safe or vault in the licensee’s business premises.


    (b) The licensing authority in an unincorporated area of a county or within a city may impose security requirements that are more strict or are at a higher standard than those specified in subdivision (a).

    Make a vault and tell us how it goes.

    I always wanted to make a vault/gun room/panic room. Anyone have experience with that?

      Not sure what the requirements are or what defines a vault but I have my garage that I can use to convert.

            If I had it to do all over again, I would have built an add-on 10'x20' walk in, made out of filled ICF blocks. Using an existing 6'x15' lined in expanded steel sounded cheap, easy and big enough, but all three were misconceptions.
