[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 2737121, member: 48043"] Dang, sorry to hear you had a fire. Been there, done that in 1989. Wiped out most of what we owned . We had a Sentry fire safe with documents in it and it was cut open with most everything surviving. The guns weren't a total loss, but a Colt 38 we had got hot enough to fire crack the nickel and most of the others had water issues and needed a heck of a scrubbing... I personally lost everything I owned. As to safes, the longer and higher the fire rating, the better. 1 hour at 1200 isn't really enough, especially if you are rural. I think my safe is 90 minutes at 1200, and I want to buy 1500 or better with something better time wise next time... They get spendy in a hurry though. [/QUOTE]
