It is shaped like a briefcase and has two locks built-in and also has provisions for two more small padlocks....

Bob Riegl, Read the article that I wrote for the USA Shooting News, January / February 2004. It is really important to get an update provision so that it is not necessary to go through the entire legislative process to add a new pistol. If I can help in any way, please let me know. Sandy Santibanez

You gain little noise reduction. You are training/practicing in your home to improve your ...
