There is a lot of false security that goes with modern gun safes...they work well for amateur smash and grabs but if a smart thief with tools shows up it probably wont matter what you bought.
This is all true. But I have nothing in my safe a pro would be interested in. There is plenty in there an amateur would want to take.
