Gun safe questions

Fire resistant.... well, I did not get a fire resistant one, sometimes I wish I had...

However, they are just like bullet proof glass. In reality, there is no such thing, it is bullet resistant, not bullet proof. So fire resistant is just that, it will slow the fire down.... If you really wanted it safe, you'd have a fire sprinkler above the safe, so if it gets "that" hot, it goes off.... At the most the water might get the guns humid, and then you just clean them.

But given the cost of $200 + for a 1 hr resistant and not, I think I'd spend the $200 more today...
