I've been thinking again. Yes, again. And this usually turns out to be expensive. I have bought several Cat III items during Obama's administration. I didn't need them, nor particularly want them. But was motivated to get them now, before they were banned.
Anyway, getting them is one thing. Keeping them is another. The wife and I went to the NRA annual meeting about a week back. In the back of my mind, I kinda worried about the security of my home while we were away. I know it should be OK. I live in a good neighborhood. I have an security alarm system. My son remained in my home. And I didn't make any public announcements of our absence until after we returned. But my guns were stored in a large tool gang box and that had me uneasy. Also any evacuation during the upcoming hurricane season also factored into my unease. I lost my treasured sailboat in Katrina. I also got forced into retirement before I was ready. And my home was damaged but not flooded. Since Katrina, any hurricane threat makes me go into a dark mood. So today, I bought a gun safe. It was expensive, but I feel good that I did.
Does anybody know if a gun safe offers any protection against the contents becoming flooded? Surely, someone has some experience in this.
