Great deal on TSC Winchester safes.
Any safe can be broken into, how long did that take?
Curbstone delivery. Delivery contractors generally don't bring a safe inside, much less up multiple flights of stairs.
I asked a local locksmith who sells safes how many were broken into in the last few years. "None." Virtually all the robberies were inside jobs at businesses that handled a lot of cash.
Not saying it doesn't happen, but even the inexpensive "gun cabinets" have often resisted opening. Did find reports of several people with safes in garages that had them removed.

BTW Boston Rentals has a battery powered stair climbing furniture dolly. They can handle up to 750 lbs with two guys. We use a lighter aluminum one and I brought a 14 gun uninsulated Sentry up two stairs and down five by myself.
Can do this to any safe with the right tools. I saw it a few times at my grocery customers with commercial grade 10K safes. Top cut off with saw with metal cutting blade.Great deal on TSC Winchester safes.
If given the time, somebody can break into anything. Slowing down a criminal is your best defense.

I read a lot about the Winchester safes at Tractor Supply, but finally decided on the 20 gun Red Head safe at Bass Pro. Made in Texas, plus it has a dial lock rather than digital. I was looking through the Owners Manual after getting it home and found that it's actually made by Winchester!
So if you like the TS Winchester safes, it looks like you can get a 10, 20 or 24 gun version with a dial lock by looking at Bass Pro.
