Excellent safe -- worth the extra $$$ for the ac/dc plug - Gunvault Inc MiniVault Deluxe Handgun Safe

I found out about this model from a random dude in a gun store who owned a defense training business. What he raved most about was the POWER supply as some of the reviews of the battery-only models showed that the access was denied before the 9V was completely dead. In this model there's still a battery backup (recommended to be changed once a year), but the primary power is AC/DC, so you KNOW it's going to work EVERY TIME. We found it easy to setup and program, and I loved the grooves for placing your fingers in the dark and the fact that only 4 were necessary. It's worth noting that part of your "code" can be more than one button pressed at once to further protect your safe from access--especially from the kiddos. Also, I love the 5 second courtesy light that allows you to easily see the gun when the door opens in the dark. Some complain about the beeps, but we found them to be mild and quiet as well as helpful to know a button was effectively depressed. It's small and holds my Sig P238 380 with two extra mags, so I would imagine it being a good size for 1 handgun (or two tiny 380s without anything else) and 2 extra magazines. I can't find a single thing wrong with it, and OpticsPlanet gave me a great deal!
