When you buy a gun, you need to buy a gun safe as well. Period. And it�s not just for safety reasons.
Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg said the twin attacks had resulted in peacetime Norway's deadliest day."Also, we will want to make sure that we learn, like others, any lessons there are to learn about how to be more secure against horrific outrages like this."Another survivor, Adrian Pracon, who was working in the information booth on the island, said: "People were falling dead right in front of me. The gunman was very sure, calm and controlled. He looked like he knew what he was doing. He screamed at us that we would all die."Around two hours later, reports emerged of a gunman shooting at teenagers at a retreat for the Labour Party's youth wing on Utoeya island, about 20 miles northwest of the capital.Police chief Sveinung Sponheim said there were still bodies and body parts in buildings damaged by the Oslo explosion in Oslo, which was caused by a car bomb. However, the buildings were too dangerous to search and there were still undetonated explosives inside.Hinges should be on the inside. Exposed hinges are another point of attack for anyone trying to break into your safe. If your hinges can be damaged or removed, the door can be broken into. Many safe manufacturers will advertise super-strong hinges, but no matter how strong a set of hinges are, they�re better off if the thieves can�t get to them.The killing spree lasted for an hour and a half, during which time the gunman, dressed as a policeman and armed with automatic weapons and handguns, urged unsuspecting victims to gather round him before shooting them at point-blank range. He eventually surrendered without a fight to a Swat team, which had taken 45 minutes to reach the scene.She escaped by hiding behind the rock the killer was standing on.Look for as few welded seams as possible. Amateur thieves will try to break through your lock to get to your guns. But the real pros know that your safe�s weakest points are where the metal has been welded together. To stop burglars from attacking your seams first, look for a safe that has as few exposed seams as possible.Prime Minister David Cameron said the loss of life was "hard to comprehend". He added: "The Norwegians are old friends and allies and neighbours of Britain, and I know that everyone in Britain will want to stand with the Norwegian people in the days of sorrow that lie ahead.
The bottom line is that you can�t have too much safe. Buy a safe that will accommodate your gun collection as it grows. Most importantly, don�t think cheap when it comes to the safe that�s supposed to protect your valuables�because you�ll get what you pay for. You can�t expect a �50.00 safe to do a good job protecting �10,000 worth of firearms�buy a safe that does justice to your collection. If you do, your guns should stay safe and secure.
