I am not sure what side of the argument I fall on this yet (havent weighed everything up)
I would like see of stolen firearms, what security were they stolen from? (Chain cut, safe cut, stolen out of a car, safe left open, not secured at all etc) as seen recently a safe isnt worth dick if its left open. I know that in these examples owners stupidity is a factor but it would be interesting to see how often this is a factor.
I would like to think (in a perfect world) that all firearms owners would do the best they can in their circumstances.
The reason I say this is when I bought my first rifle I simply didnt have the funds to get an ecat safe but I did have the resources to get an A cat safe (not necissarily the cheapest either). So I got an a-cat safe coach bolted it through the building frame, dyna bolted it to the concrete in an area that is not easily visable and stored the bolt in a lock box in a different location. While not the maximum security not the minimum either. The point being as a responsible firearms owner I would be mortified if my rifle was taken from my posession and used to harm someone if I had not done everything I could to (within my personal circumstances) prevent it. As my circumstances change so to does my level of resources I can apply to meeting my responsibility.
