Why would you prefer to rob someone who has a gun? A gun in a locked safe is hardly a good target compared to the typical valuables. It’s also likely to be deep within the house in a harder to find spot. And, they have a gun.
- aerostable_slug 4y agoBecause gun safes aren't actually safes according to insurance companies. They're easily defeated with a crowbar or a saw, and generally light enough that criminals can just take them (if they aren't bolted down) and defeat them somewhere else if need be. These aren't currency/jewelry-grade safes with relocking plates and the like. They're thin metal that's just about good enough to keep a child out and that's it. Re: someone with a gun — just wait until the person goes to work. Many burglaries happen in the middle of the day (like the one my family experienced).
