hi guys,

just a quick question about safes. For a cat c license holder can you use a small 7 gun safe under 150kg and bolt to the floor and wall and be legal or does it have to be strictly over 150kg and cat c approved?

Cat C's have to be made of 6mm plate unlike most A & B's...most of the Cat C's we sell at our LGS are under 150kgs.

Thanks Steven. I have a fireproof safe that is around 20ml thick on the door and as for the body of the safe who knows?. Good safe allthough i can't move the bugger.

well, went to my local police station today to see if they could answer my question and they think i can use any safe(sturdy construction) and just follow the rules regarding weight.

up here a safe can be as simple as a fridge with flip latch and padlock on it.....
as long as its bolted to the wall.
i have a small bar fridge with a flip latch for an ammo safe.... its legal

i have heard that the safe requirements for Vic are to change this year. something along the lines of must be a safe specifically made for firearms kind of thing, no more fridge with lock/reinforced change room lockers etc etc.

anyone else heard this or is it a load of s%$t?
