No More Excuses — Get a Safe for Your Guns
In light of the tragic events in Connecticut, we strongly urge all readers to secure their firearms so they cannot be accessed by juveniles or mentally unstable persons in the household. If you don’t have a gun safe, get one. Don’t procrastinate because of cost factors — here is an affordable option you can get from Walmart. The $597.00 24-gun Cannon Safe is big enough to hold a large collection of arms and heavy enough that it would be difficult to remove — particularly if it is bolted down. Yes, there are better-built safes. But this $597.00 Cannon is a viable option if you can’t afford anything of higher quality. You want a safe that is big and heavy enough that it can’t be easily hauled off with a hand truck. For more information on Gun Safes, read our Gun Safe Buyers’ Guide
The Cannon Safari Series 24-Gun Capacity gun safe comes with a built-in door panel organizer, electronic lock, and a 30-minute fire rating. The interior is fully lined with lint-free fabric and the bottom is pre-drilled for bolting the safe to the floor. The electronic lock allows the owner to change the combination and a 9-volt battery is changed from the outside. Its door is locked with steel-active locking bolts on the left side and door wraps around the inside right side.
- 30-minute fire protection rating
- Internal hinges and expandable smoke seal
- Adjustable shelving
- Dimensions: 59″H x 26″W x 22″D (depth includes handle and lock)
- Model# 5926BLKEDOK
UPDATE: Bulletin Reader Michael found that TractorSupply.com has a similar 60″ x 26″ x 20″ Cannon TS6026E Challenger Gun Safe on sale for just $449.99 through December 18th, 2012. That’s the web price, but if you need delivery you have to add $100.00 for oversized shipping. If you can get to a local Tractor Supply Co. outlet near you and pick the safe up yourself, this may be an amazing deal if the store honors the web price. Don’t dawdle — Sale ends December 18th!

Before I get flamed for featuring a $600 gun safe, I want to say that I believe people should buy the best safe they can afford. I have personally spent dozens of hours researching gun safes — talking to police investigators, locksmiths, and safe manufacturers. I wrote what is probably the most extensive Guide to Gun Safes on the web. However, the point of this article is to reach out to those who have not bought a safe yet because they think they can’t afford one. If you have friends or relatives who don’t have their guns secured, they need to be encouraged to get a safe — right now! If this $597.00 option makes that possible, then that’s progress. With time, as finances improve, they can upgrade to a better, stronger product. But this Cannon safe will be a whole lot better than no safe at all, or one of the cheap “security cabinets” that can be defeated by kids with household tools.
Gun safes are great and this is a good price. Just be aware take the number of guns that it states it will hold and cut it at least in half to find a realistic amount of firearms you can place in the safe. Of course years ago nobody had gun safes. Theres plenty of very effective ways to secure firearms without a safe. Either way lock em up!

Editor: Thanks for the find. That is an amazing deal … IF you are near a TractorSupply outlet. Otherwise the $100.00 listed shipping would put the price closer to the $597 Cannon at Walmart. Great tip though!
Agreed! If you have a gun, you should have to have a safe! Here’s some more great ones: http://www.maximumsecurity.com/safes/pc/Gun-Safes-c7.htm
