!00 percent reliable - Hornady Rapid Vehicle Safe

I gave this a five star review because unlike a previous (non-Hornady) product, the code entry method is 100 percent reliable, as is the RFID entry procedure. However, my full size (5") Kimber 1911 45 Auto doesn't fit (the safe is 3/4" to 7/8" too short). My wife's 4" Kimber 1911 9mm does fit.

Also, I can't silence the beeps (my dachshund starts to shake when he hears a beep), either because of incomplete directions, or a faulty unit.

Nonetheless, I can see why this unit won design awards. Probably only 5 percent of folks actually carry a 5" 1911. When Hornady comes out with a longer version, I'll purchase a second one, then we'll have "his and hers", in case we ever both need to park and go together into a building where carry is not permitted.
