I'm in the process of moving into my new house in the next couple weeks and I need to get a decent gun safe. I'm pretty much limited to putting it in the basement which is unfortunate since it can get very humid down there in the summer. I've got a humidity gauge down there now and with the basement windows closed it was 72% on Tuesday night. I bought a 50 pint dehumidifier and I had it running for a couple days last month and I had it down to 56% if I set it to 50-55%. Sucks that it runs all the time since it uses 600 watts of power. I don't have any downspouts on the gutters so I'm sure that isn't helping much- one more thing to add to the list of home repairs/improvements.
I've already bought a couple of those rechargeable dehumidifiers for a safe and might get a goldenrod once I figure out if the safe can easily be drilled to wire one of those. So I've been looking at the Field and Stream 32+6 gun safe from Dick's for $800. Does anyone have experience with these safes and know how good they are? I need one good enough for 5 longs guns and 5 pistols plus ammo. Also does anyone know if the doors are removable? It's going to be a PITA trying to get it through the tiny doorways and down a couple sets of stairs into the basement. I need to find a place that has decent dollies with wheels down the backside to help with going down the stairs.
