    I have a Fort Knox brand safe. Love it, so when I needed a small desk type, I bought Fort Knox small safe. Uses a combination punch type, you set your own combination in the sequence you want. Very heavy, very well built. Lifetime warranty and made in the USA to boot FortKnox.com

    Just wanted to say thanks for the advice. I finally got a V-Line Too Drawer compact and its worlds better than any of the Gun Vaults! I love the Simplex lock.

    I picked this one up at Costco (on sale for $59.00)

    It can be bolted to furniture. Keeps grand kids away from loaded ready handguns.

    The V-Line is bolted to the drawer. The mechanical lock was the deciding factor. Too many stories of eclectic locks not working or batteries dying.

    Suggestions for bedside gun safe

    I currently have one of the gunvaults but I am soon going to update to a fas1 safe and then switch to an abloy lock as they are very hard to pic, from what I've read.

    I had a similar experience to Hizzie and Punkey71. I kept the backup batteries fresh in the electronic safe. Nevertheless, there was a weird power glitch during a storm and it wouldn't open with the combination. I had to open it with the key and reset it. No. No. No.

    The VLine that replaced it has given me no problems in 10 or so years.

    Same here - love mine. Simple and solidly constructed. It'll hold a G17 w/X300 and a G19 with ease, too.

    In addition to the V-line, check out the Shot Lock.

    Also a mechanical combo, and they make them for shotguns and AR15s too.
