Gun Safe Question

[Douger]

I'm wondering if Costco still sells gun safes. Was told by a police officer/hunter that it's the best place to get them. They go for about $350, fire rated, etc. and would sell for about $600 at Bass Pro. I'll have to drop in and ask, as calling is all but useless.

I'm told when they're in stock they fly off the shelves, so wondering if anyone knows what time(s) of year they carry them.

Thanks!

PS It's my first post here, here's my intro from the intro thread.

"Hi all,

Recently got my licenses and joined and donated to the OFAH. Not looking to scoop anybody's spots, just hoping to learn a few things & contribute what I can. A little more about me..

-Long time outdoorsman
-Long time steelheader
-Have private river access via a Simcoe cty. farm, with possible hunting in the future
-Kindergarten teacher (I like it)
-Single dad
-Was introduced to a long-time hunter who's willing to show me the ropes so I feel lucky

Cheers"

Welcome to the forum. Canadian Tire has excellent all-purpose safes,too,and Amazon has a full line.

Thanks Trimmer21, I did check but I'll have another look. Basically I want something heavy as opposed to just a cabinet, and hoping to get a good deal because I hate paying full price.

Douger look in the hunting for sale listing as I believe ninepointer has one for sale at a good price. Hope this helps. Ken

If you go to their website and search "Gun Safe".... You get a few to come up and their website says "shipping included".... so might be worth a look...

Thanks kmcclemont! I did have a look at that one and it's more of a cabinet style in terms of the weight.

A friend of mine, now in his 80s, years ago got an 800 lb Treadlock 12-gun safe second hand from the RCMP. I don't know if police departments do sell-offs anymore... ?

Look up Hunter Safes there in Hamilton

TSC has the Stack-On line, some are the cheaper metal cabinets and other are the heavier fire-rated ones. When they go on sale I think the price is as good as anywhere else.

Thanks man I looked into it they seem like fantastic safes. Going to try to get something at a lower price point first.

Thanks for the link! The ones online are more expensive than the ones I heard about. Dropped into Costco today (so tranquil on a Saturday) and asked about it. They said they sell them online only, and there were 0 at any of the other stores. So either they are correct and Costco has stopped carrying them in-store, or they just come in a couple of times a year but sell out in a few days.

Thanks man I'll check it out!

Currently, TSC only has the lighter cabinets. The winner so far is Cabela's, who have a Liberty 12-gun safe that as of the date of this post is on sale for $549, regular $749.
