I bought the Rhino 6039EL from Costco when it was on sale back in March. It is the same size as the one you are looking at but has a higher fire rating. Very happy with it and with Rhino's service... posted a full review and pictures here: http://www.calguns.net/calgunforum/showthread.php?t=282705&highlight=rhino

Only wish I had bought the larger version, as it is completely full already!

May also want to look at gunsafes.com. They have free shipping and many of the safes come with free in home placement. all the reviews i've read show them to be a good company to deal with and pricing is good. I'm planning on buying thru them at some point since everyone local wants $200 just to drop the safe at the driveway.

I bought one of the Rhino (Bighorn) safes for my son about a year and a half ago, as a college graduation gift. A few months ago, his home was broken into while he was at work. The thieves tried their best to break into the safe. They used a Milwaukee grinder that they found in his garage to try to grind off the hinges. Then they tried to grind through the sheet metal surrounding the lock dial. Next, they took a sledge hammer and beat on the handle until it broke the "shear bolt" (designed to break in such circumstances). They never got the safe open. My son took some digital pics of the damage to the safe & e-mailed them to Bighorn, along with a copy of the police report. In about two weeks a brand new safe was delivered at zero cost to my son. They also picked up the old damaged one. Can't ask for much more!
