Could you keep a pistol in this with the lid &amp; lock facing upwards? Do you think it would be practical to open and retrieve this way?

You could but your firearm would most likely fall at a weird angle in the bottom and it might be awkward to retrieve in the dark and get a good grip. Also the safe is kinda deep for this to be practical. I also wouldn't trust the door spring since the door is heavy and it may fail to open quickly when you need it most.

Well you can but it will be a pain to get out in a hurry if you can get it out at all. I made a mistake buying the Homak and I suggest you add a few dollars more and buy a electronic safe that has a key or a mechanical safe, I had a terrible time getting my weapon out of safe and I think Homak is the worst on the market.

Yes, there is a small hole near the handle on both lids which join together when the case is closed. You could slip a padlock or some other lock on the case there. That being said, your question is whether the case could be SECURELY locked... remember, the case is constructed of lightweight plastic, so whether it is locked or not, it could rather easily be broken apart or cut with a box cutter, or something of that nature. The lock would only act as a deterrent for someone fully intending to get inside the case.

I feel very confident that the safe when attached with the cable to the bar under my passenger seat is secure. No one could get it outwithout taking the seat out. I am a female and work nights and take my glock with me in my gun safe. It is locked when I go into work and when I come out I unlock the safe but leave my gun inside. So, I have easy access. I am sure it cannot be stolen by someone unless they take the whole car.

Heh. I've thought about buying and carrying a pistol but haven't yet. Can't say it'll carry the one you mention, but it should be plenty big for a compact pistol.

I would have to say no! I go to the range with three pistols in the bag but they are in the pistol carpets with those ammo and eye and ear protection its a tight fit. But the bag is excellent and i would highly recommend it. I keep my pustols with chamber locks on them so i dont see the need for locking cases in the bag.

Yes, you can lock the top to the bottom. Also the top box locks. Look, I got two of these. They are a great concept an d functional. ON the one the handle shattered first time I hefted into the truck. I emailed Stanley, but they could care less. It would be great if made from aluminium or better, sheet steel. But then it would cost too much to buy it. In this case they took a great concept and made it as cheap as practicable so the lower minions could afford it. You also need to drill two holes, two on each side of lower compartment and string two bungies across to keep the bottom box from bowing. You will also find that the latches are soooo cheap you can bend then with two fingers! They make another box similar and cheaper that is BETTER than this one. Check it out. I use it to hold all my shooting gear. I shoot IPSC/IDPA style combat with rifle/pistol. It holds all my detritus very well. Anything LIGHT. If you try to stuff this thing with anything heavy, it does not work. Hope this helped. Want to go shooting with us? FRED

It can only be stuck in the holster facing inwards. If it is facing outwards it would be prone to damage.

Yes, it will be suitable to keep your pistol and ammo. But due to dial locking mechanism when you need to get to it fast will be little too late, I think. Guess one can keep it unlocked, if no kids at home.

I carry my Taurus PT 111 locked and loaded with the safe on. I've never had a problem. I love my Versacarry, the only complaint is some wear on the slide, but I don't carry a gun for its looks and a little wear doesn't effect the function.

see allencompany.net you need a different style case to accommadate your pistol with mags. stuffing them all into this type of case would be counterintuitive.

It is my understanding locking the lid is an option. It's good for carrying the pot to another location.

Yes, or any movement will open it even if partially. This design has no way of keeping in place without locking and in turn you need the key to reopen. Try the non lock version BBS-2331 it should give you the look you want...

Yes, it is removable. I haven't put that pistol in it, but I'd be hesitant because it's quite roomy, and I'm not sure if it would be right for a slim pistol. It's much better suited to full-frame handguns.

Possibly with a little practice. The only obstacle i see is trying to put the can under the bar and pushing down on the lever in one motion. After the lever is pushed down it locks the can in place during the opening proccess and keeps it there after it's open and until the lever is pulled up and the lock is released, at that point the can will fall out but, still sealed until you stick your finger nail in the crease to pull the lid off.

Yes, depending on accessories (scope, lights etc) - if it isn't tricked out in Hollywood overkill fashion you should be just fine. There are a lot of magnetic hangers and accessories you can buy to attach your pistol and spare magazines with to the metal back wall of the safe as well that may come in handy.

This case was designed to secure one pistol. But could accommodate two from the space provided. I will not even try to put in a third one. Good luck.
