TLDR - get the bigger one
Seriously though. It's not what you have but what you will have. Go bigger. Also you add 1 scoped precision rifle with bipod and that is like adding 3 average long guns with no optic, so keep in mind how quickly it gets crowded as the family grows. |

Always go bigger if you have the room and money.

Then you look around the house and see all the stuff you want in there. Documents, gold, silver.
Sometimes even things that are not always in there but when you go on vacation, laptops, jewelry etc Then your wife realized she can put some shit in there too. |

Looks like the only difference is 5” on depth (front to back length) between the two. Its almost a whole $1000 more than the Jr safe.... That’s really what makes it tough. Does the depth really equate to alot more guns?

The Fatboy Jr XL is the same size as the Fatboy, and has a lower price. Only difference between the two is the fire rating - 75 minutes vs 90 minutes.
And I'll echo everyone else - bigger is always better. You'll grow into it. I have a regular Fatboy. Zero regrets. Somehow, it's managed to be "just right."

Id 100% go with a Fatboy Jr XL “Extreme” if they had one. It doesn’t appear that they do though.... I like the three dividers on the extreme models. |

Update: I ended up going with the Browning Hells Canyon Extra Wide Safe.

Chances are good you'll add a second safe later.

I got the Fatboy 64 to replace my first safe that got too small later. Like they are saying, go bigger rather than smaller or you will be upgrading for capacity later.

Bigger. Just like building a garage. You'll never regret bigger.

I have the jr version. Wish I had gotten a larger safe as it’s gotten a bit tight for room inside. Other than that, I am very happy with the safe.

Ok, my new safe Liberty Fatboy XL is now full.
I will add that the 64 long guns is a bit optimistic on the marketing department's estimation. I needed to have purchased a larger one. Just like your hookers, go big or stay home.
