I have newborn baby and am already planning to secure my "house-gun". I have my rifles and all but one of my handguns in a safe already. I keep my G21 on my nightstand and I know this can't go on for much longer. What is the best product for securing the gun, yet still offering access if I need it. Is the Gun Vault the way to go? I am hoping to accomplish this with less then $200 or so. Thanx for your input.

Build your own metal or wood container/hider for your gun. It is easier than you think or you can have someone do it for less than $200.00

Welcome aboard 45ACP. I have seen some nifty gun vaults for pistols for right around $70 including digital code entry plus keyed entry. They're made so that you can bolt them down too.

Hi 45acp,
In Aus we have a trigger lock system, called the Jason lock (invented by jason!!).
It is a keyed lock that covers the trigger, disableing the gun ot rifle.

This might be an option to keep your arm secure but still next to the bed.

maybe you could build a locking drawer into your nightstand

I would go with a digital safe near the bed...you don't want a trigger guard on a handgun you will grab during a need for it.

Chris I was thinking along the lines of your post. I had hoped someone had some specific recomendations. I can't afford to go with one of the "biometric" ones. I had looked at one by GUNVAULT. It has finger-grooved buttons so you can grab your piece in the dark. Do you know which brand of these type of products is the best? Thanx
