There are some decent safes out there. My recommendation for any residential safe is a Group 1 lock with 11 gauge or thicker steel. Fort Knox is my go to, but it is a bit pricey. To me, safety means more than a few bucks. For a smaller safe (pistol size) - Fort Knox, GunVault, SentrySafe, and Stack-On have options. Look for the latest generation as there have been issues with kids picking the locks.I know I am a bit behind when it comes to firearm knowledge but I have been thinking it's getting time we get something to protect ourselves in our house and out and about. My wife and I did not grow up around guns and are very nervous when it comes to having one in the house due to having little ones running around who get into everything. There are places around here where they have classes to learn about shooting and the operations of a gun, we may be looking into that. Our biggest concern is safety, what do you all recommend as far as safes and education for both my wife and I and possibly the kids when they get old enough.
As far as education goes, most LGS (Local Gun Stores) offer introductory courses for folks with limited or no firearm knowledge. Take a look at your LGSs for more info there. Another class you may want to consider is "Stop the Bleed" or an intro to First Aid.
If you have any additional questions or want recommendations, feel free to PM me.
