With my C&R collection, it's definately time to get a gun safe. My parents don't mind either, since my dad and brother need a place for their shotguns and such as well. We already have a spot picked out, and so on.
Well, how exactly do we go about getting this from Gander Mountain and into our home? I'm thinking we could move it ourselves, it's about 530 pounds, and I'm pretty sure our '99 Ford Explorer could handle that. I suppose there is some worry since it would be all that weight over mostly the rear axle.
Is it something we can do ourselves, or should we get someone we know with a trailer or pickup to help us out with moving it? Or would Gander Mountain offer some sort of service?
If we can do it on our own, the spot is going ot be in our garage, with it's concrete floor. Just back the car in, and wiggle the safe into the corner, where it will be hidden from view and once we figure out how, bolted to the floor.
How did those of you with safes move them?
