Top Notch Safe, First Alert 5200DF 9.5/10
I bought the First Alert 5200DF for the purpose of storing a handgun and 2 spare magazines. My purpose is to secure my home defense pistol,due to having curious children in the home. This will fit a full size handgun inside with room to spare. I have a Springfield XD 4" and 3" Sub Compact model and they both perfectly with room for 1 magazine. Both pistols have weapon lights on them. If I were to remove the lights I'd have enough room for additional spare magazinesIt works as described. The instructions and programming the combination are straight forward and easily done in less than five minutes tops. The locking mechanism looks very stout it appears to be casted vs stamped sheet metal like other brands, I was very impressed with that feature. If you're looking for an affordable safe to secure valuables or a firearm. This safe should be considered as a viable option. I own two other small safes which were much more expensive. The First Alert safe is of the same quality and craftsmanship as other top tier safes.
