Brilliant and simple! Thank you! I’m about to install a Cat H safe and this has helped immensely.

Thanks! Just got my ruger 223 rifle and a webley Scott shoot gun and found all your videos very helpful as I am starting off.

Excellent video, clears up a lot of myths around firearm storage.

Hi Ozzie, I picked up a CMI SS7 from Northside Locksmiths after watching your earlier CMI safe review. Very happy with the build quality and overall presentation. Pro tip: If QPS do show up on your door step and want to inspect your weapon safe, you are lawfully allowed to delay that inspection if you were just about to ‘go pick up the Missus’. This will allow you to arrange another time and ensure your kit is properly stored before inspection. Keep up the quality work mate.

@@ozziereviews I bought the CMI SS14-D shortly after seeing your review (I think it was R7C-KCB vid?). Otherwise I'd have gone Spika SFB2. The clincher? Hypothetical question at a safe supplier, "I've passed away, estate gets lawful authority to open the safe, what do you charge" - and we looked at different safes. "Most" level 2 safes were ~ 1 hr labour (+ callout fee) "approx" $500 for a safe fitter to open them. CMI safe? At *LEAST* A DAYS work to open, IF they could get it open same-day still talking $2k fee. I was assured a brute force attack that broke a level 2 safe wouldn't come close to opening a CMI. ps, they are now made in China (full disclosure from CMI), but quality checked in Australia.

So by no means be able to defend yourself and/or your Family against the growing home invasion problem. Thanks Government!!

What’s the go with storing ammo in QLD? I heard from some gun stores it doesn’t need to be in a lockable safe, just can’t be stored with the firearm is this true?

That's a hassle having to take bolts out and open actions. I'd have a pile of 12 bolts somewhere. I guess it makes things safer... In Victoria you just need to store the ammo separately. We do however have random police inspections with no notice which I believe is not the norm.

Gday m8, can you do a list of what the guns names are in this vid? 1st timer here about to get license soon , some nice looking rifles there, I was looking at a cz 515 tactical but like the look some ya got there .

I’m totally new to everything here and I’m from NSW. Does anyone happen to know about alarm systems and stuff? Are they mandatory? I recall seeing somewhere that both the safe and the storage premises must be alarmed and monitored off site. Is that true? I feel like that could end up being bloody expensive.

In Western Australia the bolt does not need to be removed while stored in the safe. so long as the action is not cocked

Can you insert the safety flag instead of fully removing the bolt from the rifle? (For bolt action rifle)

No expert, but I dont think so. The safest way for all states is to install a lockable steel box bolted to the floor or frame. if ever going to to use a chain, at least to lock the gun directly to a solid fixing, not the pelican case. But I think that only works in USA, not in Australia.

But of you pull the bolt out the pin will stay cocked. Isn't it bad for the firing pin to be stored away cocked

What about trigger locks. Should we still take bolts out with trigger locks

Do you have to lock up your bolts separately too? or can they just float around the compartment with the firearms

@mrbrown3546

Here in QLD they can be in the safe, just have to be removed.

Action broken or bolt pulled out. For bolt actions can that mean just opening the bolt back? Rather than needing to take each bolt out? You'd think it'd be OK considering it's fine for non bolt actions, and I read the legislation that way, I just wanted to check if you had any extra info on this. Cheers

Yes, it does. It’s stupid yes but these laws were written by people who don’t know what they are doing.

Never removed or left bolts open on my rifles or actions open on my shotguns stored in my safe in W.A. when i had a Glock 34 handgun, it was just mag out and in its case, with action/slide closed. Storing it with the action open would not be great for the guide rod spring I imagine. I've just always maintained a common sense safety check standard when removing firearms from the safe, of cycling the action and a visual check.

What ridiculous legislation to have to have the bolts removed, that’s a sure way to weaken the bolt springs so when you travel hundreds on kms to your hunting grounds and take a shot game your bolt spring might have weakened enough to not be able to fire the rifle . This could potentially be a danger to the shooter if the firing pin doesn’t impart enough impact to the primer to fire a cartridge if you pull the trigger when up close to say a big boar or a scrub bill or buffalo up north . Utter madness in my humble opinion.
