I'm trying to figure out how to lay out my safe too, but I plan on using it for credit cards and valuable papers as well as guns. When you post your pics of your safe and valuables here on the internet, could you please be sure to show your credit cards as well?
I understand your intent, but most people are going to find the idea of posting picks of both their valuables and the security arrangements on line to be less than a good idea.

I did think of that, but let's be honest- Most of us remain 100% anonymous here on the internet. I would also assume that most of us own a few AR's, pistols, rifles, and shotguns, as most "normal" people do. Showing a general layout doesn't compromise anything, and if you think it does then don't post it. Besides, I've seen a lot of people post their entire collection in a picture- Why not show 'em in a safe? Hell, have you seen the thread where people have pics of their wife holding guns?
I own several AR's, and they are bulky compared to most rifles, and lining them up while maintaining room for other stuff can be a challenge. For example, one of my AR's has a Aimpoint attached, and from that to the end of the pistol grip is a long ways when dealing with limited space. Throw a couple of those, a few shotguns, etc., and it adds up quick. I'm glad I got the size I did, though, any less and I don't think I would have been happy.
Glad everyone told me to get one bigger than I thought I needed, a 20X20 would have been too small!
thanks for your help....
