Hmmm... Deck is lagged into house. It's built with 2"x6" joists and 2"x4" and 2"x6" decking. I've had 3ft of wet snow on whole deck and it never budged. Other than that, I wouldn't know any other details. Should it be ok? Sent from John's iPad 2 via Tapatalk HD Typos courtesy Apple...

For sure... I wanted the 39 gun safe but the extra weight scared the ba-geezus out of me. Sent from John's iPad 2 via Tapatalk HD Typos courtesy Apple...

Safe Movers Thread
Guys, I'm weighing all the options so far and thank you greatly. I'll contact everyone in pms.... Keep the ideas coming. it's helpful for all of us to get these probs out for others. What I've found so far is companies either don't do it or want to rape you for 30 mins work. In this case, there are no steps down. Just a few steps up and 2 thresholds. Engineering is not much help. Rolling it either on a hand truck once in or dolly will work. It's the short flight up. As far as building pyramids, you are right. I and one other person once moved a 20' x 40' x 20' heavy structure with just 3 long pipes across a grassy yard 30' away. Took 15 mins. Levers and all that stuff works. Even using 1.5" pvc will make great rollers. There is even a couple guys on youtube using softballs which act like ball bearings. But in this case weight and bulky size is the problem. An appliance truck and some muscle is probably all I need. I'd really love the electric stair hand truck but a lot of places won't rent them because they are expensive. The ones that do, I'd have to pay for a couple days rental plus 100 bux in gas to get it. Talk about a money maker. Go into business and rent these puppies out!

If I was going to do that, I might as well hire Lackasafe...

Pretty much. Back door might need hinges removed, but should be ok. Safe is 27" deep with handle. Door is about 29"... Worse case scenario, open safe door at entrance, shove through, close door. Using all manual equip will be a biotch and would need more than 2 guys I suspect?

Newest Shotty..new Benelli Fanboy
I have those tritium sights on my M4, they are sweet. Mepros makes them for Benelli, (Benelli packaging with Mepros wording on package as well)... and cheaper ($85). Same ones at Mepros are a lot more. Go fig.... I swear, that gun with the ghost rings is like having auto-targetting. The thing never misses the target and with low recoil, the follow up shots are amazing. I never felt that in any shotgun I had...

Nobody around here rents that stair climbing hand truck.. I looked. As for MegaSafe, they are now 600.. screw that.... So is Lackasafe... Talked to a lot of locksmiths. Nobody does it anymore. Mostly because their bad backs. You look outside this rotten state of NJ and there are many companies that offer it. Go figure... Anyway, try keep this thread on point. I'm hoping for some help, but I'd like to see it on point for others.....

Safe Movers Thread
I know this topic has been brought up before, but never seen a recommendation that would help anyone. So here I start a thread as I am in need of a mover. Forgive me if I missed it. But maybe we can get a list going. Please add your recommendations with names of businesses and/or people that can help. At this time, I need to have an ~755 lb Patriot 24 Gun Safe moved from my driveway, up 5 real short steps, onto my deck, through my kitchen and into my small 1st floor bedroom/office. Linear feet would be mostly flat surface and only a stretch of 40 ft. I'm in Northern NJ, Clifton area. It will arrive approx. 10 days from his post. Can pay with cash, credit, pizza and/or beer. Please pm me and also add any pertinent info to this thread if it could help other fellow gun safe purchasers... Thanx in advance. Sent from John's iPad 2 via Tapatalk HD Typos courtesy Apple...

Well, maybe they should say nada or grow a set. In this hobby, we are gun owners with a passion. A passion that may require a big set of nadz these days. An old cliché works for this I think, "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all"... Especially if it's happening to you as you stand there. If you were getting pist by a salesman's action, why would you hold back? Is it possible that it is you and not them? Another cliché I don't agree with. "The customer is always right"... As far as I'm concerned, that went out with the dark ages long go. People today will beat you to the ground to save a dollar and after brow beating you, go shopping elsewhere. I've seen businesses close just for that reason. Just one of the reasons we lose mom/pop stores these days. That saying was around many years ago when little stores bent over backwards to make money. Check this out: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_customer_is_always_right There is just too much bitching these days and most likely over nothing.. Like the other fellow said, they were a little short because of being busy. Maybe it's just me, but in most cases owning a gun and being meek doesn't cut it. If you are a consumer buying in a brick and mortar store. Stand your ground, be civil and try resolve your issues. Walking away will not fix it for you or the next person.

I understand... But complaining -just here-... will not solve anything. A problem cannot be fixed by just walking away grumbling. Speak up and tell them your displeasure... People just grumbling here might shed some light. But it shouldn't be to dissuade others. If I were pist, I'd be hashing it out with them personally. Not hide behind a computer. There is way too much computer banter these days. Nobody has the ballz to solve problems in person anymore. It's a known fact more people will complain rather than give a favorable review. Mostly because when pist, they need to lash out. But when happy, they smile from ear to ear and move on their merry way... Others rather say nothing either way. I'm a firm believer that you do not reprimand without commending and vice versa. So! If you are pist, go talk to Mike Sr. and see if the problem can be rectified. It's not fair to just let a problem stifle here. Not healthy for anyone... I don't mind people posting their issues, but I do hate when they wish to keep ranting without reconciling. I'd rather see someone come in here and say, "Regarding my issue with OSArms, i had a great discussion with the owner and he made everything right"... How often do you see posts like that here compared to others. Don't expect the owner to come in here defending himself either. Not everyone has computer or internet savvy..

I won't waste my time any longer trying to defend them and convince you folks differently. It's obvious you can't please everyone and I understand that. But I don't see them that way and never have. The Staties report they are turning out record numbers in gun sales than most similar businesses. So they must be doing something right. That being said, to each their own... Maybe rather than complain online, be an adult and take up your concerns with the owner in person...

A lot of businesses won't do that.... Not uncommon... You are not that far... go browse and stop complaining...
