I received my biometric handgun safe yesterday. It's just the right size. It holds both of my pistols and three loaded clips. It's really easy to use by unlocking with fingerprint identification. It comes with a long life rechargeable lithium battery and I also have a key back up to unlock it. I found it a little strange that the instructions said to not leave your gun loaded while storing it in the safe. Did they mean having a round in the chamber? I keep my clips loaded, but I don't chamber a round while storing my pistols in the safe. Who would want to store an unloaded gun in a safe? That means when you take it out of the safe during an emergency, you still need to load it! You may not have time for that during a serious emergency.
