just wanted to give an update on this, Winchester refunded me for the safe but won't do anything about the guns. the lawyer I spoke to said he could send them a strongly worded letter, but that I should probably just accept that I'm not going to get anything from Winchester for the damage. I've...

there were 16 handguns and 13 long guns in the safe, I think that's easily close to $20,000 in guns. the pic with the rusty gas block is an FN F2000 which was almost 2k alone. plus some of the guns were sentimental to me like the colt lawman, the hk usp, and the sig p228 I'm obviously not...

I wish I could update my initial post, they told me they'll replace the safe, but they're not responsible for the contents. Winchester makes the safe, they told me it doesn't happen often, but I Googled "Winchester safe rust" and got a few similar hits. my wife wants to consult our family...

I know, I'm annoyed... I know you can't tell from the condition of the guns I posted, but I really do take good care of my guns. I clean them after every use and I have almost every gun lube I can get my hands on. every safe has weather stripping (I know it ruins the fire resistance), all the...

replacement safe is what they offered me said they're not responsible for the contents

I'm an NRA lifetime member, I thought they used to have some kind of insurance, but nothing else.

none yet, I really don't even know what the best outcome would be at this point. even if they replace the safe, my guns are really messed up

bass pro contacted me and is handing me off to Granite Security who is the manufacturer. I have yet to call them though There are no chemicals around the safes, ammo on one side and two other safes on the other. I really think the safes are sealed well, the humidity in the basement is always...

Temps in the safes are 68 in the rusty safe, 70 in the Chinese safe, and 66 in the identical non-rusty safe. the only ammo in the safe are those 6 old nickle cased 357 mag rounds that I posted pictures of

I shoot a lot of surplus 5.45 out of one of my ARs, but of course it was in another safe... it's actually the exact same safe as the rusting one.

here is what I sent to their customer service: "I have two redhead branded USA made 24 gun safes and I am having a rust issue with one of them. both safes have several anti-rust measures inside them, but one of them is causing significant damage to my firearms. pictures and other documentation...

cup half full, but at least this safe doesn't have my nfa items in it, surpressors, sbrs are safe and sound. but that ruger revolver used to be a pretty gun, that colt lawman was from my dad, and those aks were hard for me to find (Bulgarian and Russian). everything is still functional and...

thanks for the post, I think you guys are right. makes me so mad. I'm not confident bass pro will do anything about it, but I'll reach out.

I think this makes the most sense. it's just frustrating because one of the main reasons I bought these safes are the fact that they're advertised as made in USA. I'm so upset by it, I'm so crazy about rust prevention and maintaining the quality of my guns. the basement has two 50 qt...

thanks to everyone for your responses, I really appreciate all the posts. couple more pics, I just used an oiled rag to wipe off the surface. I know the humidity is really low, but the wood is the best looking part of the colt lawman, it's obviously heavily used and carried, but it never...
