Frugal question? 28 gun safe my ass dilema

[Deleted]

OK, so, I have a "28 gun" gun safe, and at 18 guns, not including pistols, is reaching it's limit. With some squeezing, I might be able to get another 4-6 long guns in my safe

Now, I do have other firearms located around the house, and barn, for security, that will obviuosly never be home to a secure safe, but my question is......

How do I frugally convince the better half we need another gun safe in the house, without leading her to believe I'm buying more guns in the future to completely fill said second safe, just because I want another?

Trying to reason with her that the current guns need space, breathing room if you will, might be a difficult task. Just need some suggestions I reckon. ;D

You have to get a small cheap gun safe for the barn, in order to keep the guns out there "locked up". Then fill that one. Works for me!

Tell her that you need another safe to store a few guns, important documents, and secret family recipes.

I would tell her you are very concerned about family documents and then buy a bigger safe because "it was on sale".

BTW...........You look very short on ammo.

All I had to do was show my wife the pic you posted and said "look at how many guns his wife lets him have" Now I get to buy a new gun safe and another gun. :)lol The Canadain Trapper

Tell you what you do CJ go out and buy her a gun and when you go to put it in the safe just be like "Oh darn I don't think its gonna fit in here better go get another safe so your gun has a nice place to rest" I know that would work with my girl. I just picked her up a .22lr for her birthday and she was like a little kid on christmas opening it, wasn't even paying attention when I told her I bought a 1911 .

I have my ammo stored in another place. If I stored all my ammo in safes, I'd need 2 seperate ones just for ammo

Unless you are totally set on another safe, maybe try and stagger your weapons, one barrel up and one barrel down. Should be able to get a few more in that way.

Good ideas!
i never thought of asking for a bigger cabinet-I just keep stuffing all my new guns in my current one.
