Default Gun Safe

I am looking for a new gun safe, to hold roughly 25 guns, looking to spend under $2,500. Got any suggestions.
Thanks,
Jeff

I have 2 one is a Liberty that hold 25 guns the other is a Champion that holds 36 guns I think the most important issue is the fire rating buy the one with the highest fire rating and the largest capacity within your budget. by the way neither of my safes will hold as many guns as they claim [most of mine are scoped rifles] chad

I have a liberty gun safe that holds 50 guns and love it. Always get one larger than what you think you need.

I have the liberty Franklin.. Paid 2250 delivered. It is 1100 lbs empty.. And fire rated for 60 Minutes.. Thier website shows it for 2,099.. Most important thing to me is Bolt Count and Weight.. I don't want anyone walking off with it..

Don't get the Browning Bronze. Just bought one on saturday and the lock and lug handle are broke. They are sending all new parts this week, but I was looking at it and I think it might need a whole new door.[:@]

These guys build an outstanding safe. It is a family business and they build a "real safe".

http://graffundersafes.com/

As their site says, Ulrich Graffunder founded the company in 1968. He and his son-in-law delivered my safe to my house about 5 years ago. Trust me, they do it right.

Plus I didn't like the fact that the hinges are on the outside..

Thanks for all the replies guys. I found a local store that carries this brand safe http://www.heritagesafes.com/index.html, and there is another store that carries the liberty brand. Both safes apear to be well made, just don't know which one to pick.
Jeff

Its actually a plus, because the door can open 180' instead of 90'
