Storing like that is wise, but instead of wasting your time waiting for purchasing an expensive safe, just buy a very good Pelican case for it and a high quality padlock and keep itin a closet so you can simply toss it into your Subi when you inevitably hit a local range.
What brand rifle and caliber did you end up purchasing?
It’s a Remington 510 p single shot .22 from the early 60’s. It’s hardly for defense, mostly for practice and getting comfortable with firearms. It was actually my grandfather’s and “purchase” was a simpler way of saying inherited somewhat unwillingly.
Next is a Ruger 10/22 my recently late father in law left me along with a Winchester 20g single
That’s actually a really great collection. Rim fire is extremely fun to plink targets with and the ammo is cheap, which is all that really matters at this point.
