I have the opportunity to pick up one of these safes for $500, which seems to be a good price to me,
but I have a couple of questions.

The safe is a little small (18 long guns), but I could probably live with that. I think I could
modify the interior to get another 6-10 in there by sacrificing some shelf space. That's ok with
me.

I've checked the Cannon site, and this model is not listed. The safe was made in 1998. It seems to
be in fair shape. Some rust on the top of the door due to being in storage, some scraped paint,
etc.

I could not view the back of the safe, and there was not enough manpower to tilt it. So does anyone
know if this safe has openings to allow lagging it to the floor. Also, does anyone know if there is
an opening to put in a Goldenrod??

Last question, can the combination be changed easily (actually, I mean cheaply).

Thanks for any input. I'll follow the group for posts. Mucked email address if you want to reply
directly. Need to put an RP in front of all the stuff before 77469 to get an email to me.

Changing a combination is not particularly hard. The instruction and a
special tool (change key) may be required unless its an electronic lock. The
most important thing to remember if you do it yourself is place the door in
the locked position WHILE IT IS OPEN. Then test the new combination. Do this
at least three times before you close the door. A mistake or problem is
easy to fix if the door is open but if the door is closed and you are locked
out you have a major problem.

Or you can simply contact a local locksmith - have them change the combo, go
over the innards for you and drill any holes you might need.
