Burglaries and home invasions often occur at night.  If you have a firearm for home protection, can you access it quickly, in the dark, or in a groggy, sleep deprived, state of mind?  In a world where drug-driven crime is out of control, a firearm may be your best form of protection until the police arrive, yet that pistol or long gun is of no help if it’s locked inside a vault in another part of your home.

Hornady Single Gun Safes

Firearms in the home must be secured and a traditional gun safe works well for multiple firearms and personal valuables.  However, for home defense, you need safe storage for a single firearm that’s child resistant, tamper proof, yet easy to access in an emergency. Hornady has this covered in four ways:

  • Hornady Rapid-Safes have four opening options.

    RFID touchless wristband.  Just wave the plastic wristband over the safe and it instantly pops open.

  • Key Fob- Homeowners often keep their car keys by their bed.  Should they suspect a burglary, they push the panic button on the key Fob which honks the car horn signalling an emergency.  Additionally, use the safe key Fob and you’ll instantly have access to your firearm.
  • RFID Sticker- Use your smartphone to unlock the safe with a single pass
  • Touch Pad- You can program a 4 to 6 number code and open the safe with the code as well as using one of the above options.

Hornady Rapid-Safes come in two sizes and are made of thick 14 gauge steel.  Each safe exceeds ASTM International safety standards for child and pry resistance, lock strength, and hinge attack resistance. AC and battery power ensures that valuables are protected and ready to go 24/7. Plus, there are pre-drilled holes for mounting, or a 1500-lb rated cable to secure to stationery objects.

Rapid Safe AR Wall Lock

In a time of great stress and drama, you may feel safest protecting you and your family with an AR.  Until now, long guns like AR’s had to be kept in large gun safes with difficult access.  Hornady’s new single gun lock mounts on a wall with all of the access and safeguards of the Rapid-Safe line.  You can sleep soundly with the knowledge that you have all the firepower of your favorite AR quickly available if needed.

Rapid Safe Shotgun Wall Lock

When it comes to home defense, many people prefer a shotgun due to its intimidating profile and ability to scatter lethal and non lethal fire.  For example, a shot shell filled with 00 Buck is like launching a flock of 9mm projectiles in a single burst.  This wall lock can be mounted vertically or horizontally for immediate access and safe storage.

Rapid Safe AR Gun Locker

This rugged gun vault keeps your rifles completely from view and will enclose two full-size AR rifles.  It fits conveniently under a bed, mounts in a closet, or can go on the road in the back of an SUV.  It contains the features and quick access of all Rapid Safe options.  More information on the full line of Rapid Safe products can be found at www.hornady.com

DIY Security- The Snap Safe

Multiple gun storage requires space and the Hornady security engineers introduce an invention that should revolutionize the concept of the home gun safe.  Personally, I bought a large safe a few years ago at a commercial show and got a substantial discount.  Unfortunately, once I added the shipping, the discounted cost more than retail.  Plus, getting the extremely heavy unit into my home was a nightmare.

Hornady’s Snap Safe provides a host of security and fire-proof features in a safe that you assemble in your home.  This allows you to install the safe in virtually any room without tearing our walls or removing doors.  Also, if your needs change, the safe can be disassembled and moved to another location.  It’s fireproof rating protects up to 2300 degrees for an hour.  Snap Safes meet California’s stringent fire and security standards.
