If you have a gun in your home, consider the advantages of using a lock box, which is a small safe with holes in the bottom that allows you to bolt it to your floor in order to store your handgun safely. This permanence provides an added level of gun safety, since it will not be able to be moved or stolen. There are a variety of lock styles available for the boxes, including a key, combination, keypad or a push button option. Some models also have cushioned insides and light up when the cover is lifted. The boxes range from $40 on up to $200 or more, depending on the feature and size you select. While this costs more than using gun locks and some of the other gun safety equipment choices, the added gun safety they provide make them worth the money.
