Biometric handgun safe

[Tpettit]

Pretty sure I've seen posts on here before about this, just can't find it. Looking for suggestions on a high quality handgun safe that will fit in the lower front seat center compartment. Any help would be appreciated.

I have one that is a perfect fit. I believe it is "Gun Vault" model Microvault.
I will take a look to make sure.

I’d like one of those as well.

I’d be interested in hearing feedback from owners on the reliability of the fingerprint scanners. I have no personal experience with safes, however a relative has several because he has children and he’s told me the print scanners are finicky sometimes.

I have the gunvault center console, not fingerprint tho just the combo.
Safe itself is awesome, not a fan of the fingerprint ones.

I agree, I don't care for the fingerprint style either. Mine has four finger grooves that you must enter a correct sequence of touching with your fingers. Also has a key for use if the 9V battery goes dead. It is a nice fit in the lower console. One issue is that there is no place to connect the anti theft cable to in the lower console. I probably could do some drilling or come up with a work around if I wanted to. It basically is to CYA if you are forced to leave the firearm in the vehicle or are traveling through one of the ********* States. When legal the firearm is more readily available to me. Not in the gun vault. I am pretty happy with the Gunvault.

I'm looking at this one. Goes in the center console. Haven't pulled the trigger (see what I did there) on it yet, but plan to here in the next couple weeks.

I purchased and installed this Locker Down safe. Upgraded to the touchpad for an extra $50. Excellent safe, fits like a glove into console w/o the need to modify anything.

I have a question for those using these: do they have enough foam or anything else inside to prevent the gun moving and changing orientation? As in washboard roads, no roads, or minor collisions?

I’d only use one if it would keep the muzzle oriented towards the engine compartment regardless of movement by the truck.

I have one of those gun magnets in mine that keeps it secure.

I have never noticed any movement occurring in mine. In fact, I have at times placed two handguns in the vault simultaneously and when opening they had not come into contact with each other. I was not off roading however.

Magnet for sure. You can orient gun with barrel facing down underneath passenger seat or underneath drivers seat, whichever you prefer.

I just installed a Vaultek 10 in my truck the other day. It took some work to get it installed but once I got it the way I wanted I was very happy with the results.
