Recent statistics show that more Americans are stocking up on guns and ammunition than at any other time in recent history. The fact is, people in greater and greater numbers are taking their own family's protection into their own hands rather than risk becoming victims. If you spend a lot of time away from home, taking your firearm with you can be tricky; but manufacturers are filling the need for secure and portable protection by offering gun safes that can go with you. Here is a quick overview of what's out there.

The newest design in portable gun safes features notebook-style construction that is ultra-lightweight and therefore convenient to carry in either a backpack or a briefcase. It's also thinner than its predecessors, so it can be easily placed under a car seat if preferred. Most cities frown on carrying a weapon unsecured, even if you have a concealed carry permit: keeping your firearm in a portable secure container helps you avoid any potential legal hassles.

Old-fashioned access mechanisms included a key or combination lock system. Today's best models use no-look finger pad ...
... sequencing or even biometrics to help you get to your weapon in the blink of an eye for maximum protection: even in total darkness. Biometric technology allows only permitted users to access the safe, and most designs provide multiple fingerprint storage capabilities for the ultimate in safety and convenience.

Another option is to use a trigger locking mechanism on your fire arm. The vault is permanently mounted on the gun's rail and remains locked until activated. The latest models have zero removable parts (and therefore less hassle) and allow a user to have shooting capability in a matter of mere seconds. A trigger lock is perfect if you like to keep your firearm loose in a glove box or in a door compartment.

Thanks to today's completely portable and practical gun safes, you can take your small firearm virtually anywhere. Hopefully, you'll never need to use it: but if you do, you'll be ready. Fore more information about the gun safes & home safes product, visit our website www.gunvault.com now!
