Winchester Gun Cabinet 18

Secure storage of your firearms is an essential aspect of gun ownership, but, depending on your needs and/or living situation, a massive vault-quality safe might not be practical or even necessary.

Steel cabinets like the Winchester Safes GC18 bridge the gap between old wooden gun cabinets that take only seconds for a motivated thief to break into and huge safes that require heavy equipment to move, while also being relatively economical.

With room inside for up to 18 long guns and a shelf for handguns, ammunition or miscellaneous small items, the GC18 measures 55"x20.75"x18" and weighs just 95 lbs. empty.

It is built with 16-ga. steel walls given a durable powder-coated finish and features a good old-fashioned rotary combination lock for ingress.

MSRP is $380. For more information, visit winchestersafes.com.
