Hey guys. We have a 14 month old son who has started walking and likes to open cabinets. I don’t have a need for a big heavy safe right now so I’d like to get a large lockable case that can fit 5 or more long guns and 6 or more hand guns. I’m having a difficult time finding anything. It doesn’t need to have wheels. If I need to do 2 cases 1 for long guns ( 3 ARs and 2 shot guns) and one for hand guns I can but would prefer 1 big case.
Any and all recommendations are welcomed. |

Keeping guns in cases can cause rust. Maybe try a Stack On or like gun locker? They make them in several different sizes and configurations.

As long as the only loaded gun(s) are out of his reach, what's the concern? Even if you've got an AR laying on your bedroom floor, even if there's a loaded mag in it, but not a chambered round, no toddler's going to yank the charging handle and start sending rounds.

As others have said, something like a gun locker may be useful. Stack-On has some decent ones, and sometimes they’ll go on sale at Tractor Supply Co. |

Considering how many guns come with locks these days why not just use them? Just use trigger locks and throwing the guns in a sock drawer works for toddlers.(sarcasm)
Won't help for theft, but OP doesn't need a secure safe against theft. And most low cost gun cabinets can be carried away and opened later. edit. not trying to be rude. bolt whatever you get into the corner inside a closet. extra points if you can install a decent key locking knobset on the closet, which I did when living in an apartment.
