alowerlevel 77 Posted October 11, 2013 Looks like Costco has the Bighorn safe back on sale again for $599 with free shipping (curbside delivery) http://www.costco.com/.product.11625662.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JTS1469 0 Posted October 11, 2013 I bought one during the last sale. Couldn't be happier and had it delivered in record time! 2 days or less Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mge_1 2 Posted October 15, 2013 This is tempting... They charge tax for NJ delivery for online orders? I am assuming they do. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shawnmoore81 623 Posted October 16, 2013 Btw I don't know where you live but this was the costco in pa near where rt 1 and 202 meet. Near hooters and Targetmaster Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AdamM 42 Posted October 16, 2013 I looks very similar to the Bighorn one, but has a 5 yr warranty instead of limited lifetime and free replacement for break-in or fire damage like the Bighorn does. Guess the question might be, is the extra $200 for a better warranty worth it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Newtonian 453 Posted October 18, 2013 They deliver it to the curb. Then what?? Can you pay to have them schlepp it down to the basement? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alowerlevel 77 Posted October 18, 2013 They deliver it to the curb. Then what?? Can you pay to have them schlepp it down to the basement? You get some friends and a handtruck and take it into your house. Hell my dad and I moved it from the curb into the house by ourselves with just a large handtruck, we only had to go up 1 big step though. Its not really that heavy (425lbs I think), just awkward.

Newtonian 453 Posted October 18, 2013 I have to go down 12 steps. My wife would never allow a gun safe in the living room. To tell the truth, I'd not be too happy about it either. 430 lbs. is a lot of f-ing weight. I'd be afraid to take it down the wooden steps to my basement. If I took down the outdoor steps, which are extremely narrow, I'd need help. Extreme help. Man, that's a lot of weight. Yikes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I dont think 430lbs is alot of weight personally, but then again Im 290lbs by myself, lol. You can also take the door off when your moving it which will take about 100lbs off the weight. But your still gonna need some friends and the right equipment to get it down that many steps, IMHO. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AlexTheSane 236 Posted October 18, 2013 It took three people and an appliance hand truck to get it upstairs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If I took down the outdoor steps, which are extremely narrow, I'd need help. Extreme help. Man, that's a lot of weight. Yikes. I bought a liberty that was almost 700lbs. I rented a powered dolly to get it up 4 porch steps, the door threshold, and 13 steps to the second floor. Tight fits at the bottom and top of the step's landing. Myself and my 67yr old father made it happen. Where there is a will there is a way. Going down steps are easier with the dolly by the way. It is my belief the steps would hold the weight of the 400lb safe provided the steps are not in a state of disrepair. It cost about $125 for the dolly rental for the day, but TOTALLY worth it. the alternative is a moving company or a safe company that provides moving services that will bang you 300-500 bucks to move the safe that cost you almost as much.

mge_1 2 Posted October 20, 2013 Christiana All out of my price range, but dreaming right now... Hope to get one in the $400-$500 range soon. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CageFighter 236 Posted October 27, 2013 Christiana any thoughts on the the Big Horn on the right?? -this was the same set up @ my Costco this morning. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RubberBullets 65 Posted October 27, 2013 any thoughts on the the Big Horn on the right?? -this was the same set up @ my Costco this morning. Do you remember the size/model number? For that price you can get a good liberty for a similar size (unless thats a 6039 which costcos site says is $1600) Rhino is a decent safe for the price and what you get (sub 1k safe for big size with fire rating as a step above gun cabinets security) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Njbanshee 9 Posted October 28, 2013 All you have to do is take off the door. It makes moving the safe sooooooooo much easier. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
