    My 2 cents. I have a similar safe to this one. I bought it for fire protection. It is strongly bolted to a concrete wall, the foundation of the fireplace and adjacent to a wall I built withe two hidden surprises that would require a lot to work around. On the last side is the furnace that would be tough to work around. When I bought it I made sure there was concrete 1/2 “ inner liner on all surfaces. As far as whether the guns in this video safe can be made service let, I feel a gunsmith can get most of them working again. The temperature in the safe never got to 460 degrees,. That is the temperature paper products ignite. Also the fact that the bag the pistol didn’t melt (polyester and nylon has a really low melting point). Finally, ammo didn’t cook off which it would at way less than 1200 degrees. The loose rounds as mentioned in some of the previous comments were correct. Probably hand-loaded with lord only know what. As far as the salvage crew, very sloppy. To properly cut the safe open you cut a shallow depth cut as you really don’t know the thickness of the metal nor the hardness make a series of shallow cuts until you break through. You aren’t in a hurry so take your time. They lucked out when they hit non-hardened steel or worse, two layer of steel separated by concrete. Regarding the extraction of the guns I cringed when they didn’t clear the guns first using their finger. Several of the guns had carbon on the chamber face that could easily hid a cartridge in the chamber. And has been pointed out, don’t lay the directly on the concrete floor. Put them on a movers quilt to keep the guns safe and pointing away from everyone ( they walked in front of the barrel at least once). Finally don’t handle the ammo like it’s normal. Powder exposed to high heat can become unstable as can the primers. Treat them like they could could cook off any minute. Put them in a steel ammo box and dispose of them. Sorry for the length of this comment. I got seriously “triggered” by their recklessness.

    I've had to deal with insurance claims on firearms that were stored in safes. Learned many things along the way, like the fact that the temperature is hottest at the top of safes 90% of the time. The cheaper safes that use soft, open cell foam padding in the interior, vaporizes and turns into a gooey corrosive gas that coats stocks and metal, attacking the metal far worse than wood leaving uneven, deeply pitted areas on blued surfaces (stainless guns not as badly affected). If the guns are in the lower part of the safe, surprisingly most of the factory heat treatment & springs were found to be still in spec.. Some rifle barrels, closer to the muzzle end may become compromised (caution on the heat treated Stainless barrels - these may blow apart like a banana peel if high powered rounds are fired - if the barrel anneals in a fire - SS .22 long rifle barrels not so much of a concern). Sometimes the rubberized foam backing from interior carpeting will also create this corrosive goo, but to a lesser degree. I contacted several of the manufacturers like Fort Knox, Homak, Liberty, etc. to see if they were willing to offer custom build interiors with Nomex lining and additional temperature resistance features, but was disappointed that they were not willing to listen to me. Basically your so called fire rated safes are considered so because the mfg will use a special gasket that lines the door that in the event of a fire will swell and seal the door to some degree to help prevent water from the firefighters hose from getting in.... however, as you seen in this video, there are many weak areas that lifted in the rear of the safe and a corner that cracked which allowed the water vapor inside and mix with the corrosive gasses created by the carpet backing. Sorry for writing a book, but I thought I'd share what I thought to be important info to help others protect their valuable firearms.

    My company, Kingsbery mfg, invented the metal gunsafe. A gunsafe is a barbecue pit for guns. When I bought the company in 2008, I played around with actually building a fire proof safe, it increased the price by 500% if you expected interior components from being destroyed. That unit in the video is sheet roll super thin steel, garbage. I can tell it had the garbage electronic key pad as well. To open that unit ALL you had to do was hit the 4 corners on top and the top would have sprung open, you can see where the heat split the mig welds already.

The pistols in a night stand and a .410 shotgun in the closet all survived with only minimal cosmetic damage. Most of the time it's about where they are in regards to the fire and how long they were exposed.

    I've dealt with this issue a number of times while at Weatherby Inc. The Items in the safe don't necessarily "Burn" because of a lack of oxygen, but they do "Roast" as in like an oven. The rust is caused by the super heating which destroys the finish followed then cooling which causes condensation on the metal surfaces. Serviceability of all the firearms must be done by a qualified Gunsmith with access to at minimum a Rockwell hardness testing rig and a detailed listing of the items factory hardness's limits for it's parts. The super-heating effect will take the temper out of critical area's even though plastic and wood on the guns seems okay. Any gun should be sent to it's respective factory service center for evaluation only after contacting that centers service agent.

And I am not making this shit up: they just made a huge campfire, tossed all their findings in there and lit them up!And I literally remember a shit load of times I interrupted them when through the exposed holes made by corrosion through the magazine of a Mosin or Mauser rifle that was about to get lit up I just saw that there were rounds inside!And then I at least with help of a knife and a hammer popped the bottom plate on them, scraped out the follower with remainings of the spring and got the rounds out of them at least! Dozens of times did it yet every single time when on such a rifle the bolt was closed but the cocking piece still frozen cocked-they always fired from the heat of the fire!That is why at least as we were "roasting" their rifles-these rifles were pointed at the safe direction when the whole thing got lit!I didn't do that and so I was considered a safety geek! Who literally had been casually hunting for over a decade with a damn repaired(actually cleaned and refurbished but heavily pitted on the outside) and registered WW2 battlefield relic sniper Mosin rifle that has a damn up to 3mm or 0.1 inch deep pittings on outside and put thousands of full charge rounds through it over the years and cleaned it just twice!

    Had a fire and a safe with about 10 firearms in it, house burned. The house was built about 100 years prior to the fire, made from heart pine, burned basically to the ground. Very hot fire for over an hour. I called Cannon safe, the brand I had about 48 hours after, was told to get the firearms out as soon as possible, the carbon steel firearms were very rusty but truly not damaged otherwise. I had one scope that had sucked moisture in when it cooled and a few plastic items in the top of the safe that were damaged from the heat, but glad I had the safe. Main point from me is get your firearms out as quickly as you can and clean and oil them.

    Safes are designed to be inset, not free-standing. The door is robust because that is the only side meant to face attack. The sides, back, and top are usually an inner and outer layer of mild steel with what is basically sheetrock sandwiched between them. That is intended as insulation, only. The bottom of the safe is most likely a single layer of mild steel. After my 23 year career in fire suppression, I can tell you that safes generally preserve what is inside from fire well enough to allow an insurance settlement that accurately accounts for those items. Documents and cash in a safe should be in sealed plastic bags, and stored at floor level, where it is the coolest.

    Hey everyone including camera’s operator! Thank You! Just so you know I “really enjoy your video” I received exactly what I was hoping for while watching this video! As far as the use of the saw I found it to be normal due to the stresses the light metal took during the fire! The interior of safe was also what I expected but wasn’t sure about! To me it was really sad that a person had to give up the safe for legal reasons??? I’m not sure what that could be and was hoping that would have been more explained!!! Now the best part of this video was thrown into the comments section! It has many good points if you avoid the negative and political statements! Myself “I” am very political but I didn’t come to this video to make my political viewpoints known!!! I came to see what happens to a safe if in a fire…. That’s it! Nothing more! So what “I” noticed without reading ALL of the comments…. Yet! I noticed, no fire bricks nor drywall materials??? Even cheap Gun-safes who have/state a fire ratings have something to deflect the temperature. Yet I didn’t see anything other than the white material that looked like a fiber mat which it was mentioned it could be a concrete liners! As you look through from the backside of the safe towards the door of the safe you will see heavy locking pins… which usually means it’s a better safe. But the lack of more fire proofing perhaps it’s not as good as being described (1200 degrees) fire proofing! So with this knowledge presented in this video I now know to elevate my gun safe by two and half feet off my basement floor and locate the safe near a floor drain with a debris guard on it! Also I will have to install my gun safe within a metal cabinet to give my gun safe air space from the direct heat of a fire This will act as a shield against the fire direct contact and could provide the best outcome to keep my guns safe inside of the safe because the metal cabinet will act like a shield and mostly likely take most of the damaging blows of the fire! Also not noted was to keeping flammable materials out of safe to avoid spontaneous combustion! Bullets and cardboard wrappers even your paperwork for gun permits or bills of sales should not be in there find another place for fire proofing them! Perhaps a smaller safe high off basement floor! Did anyone notice the cook off rounds??? Probably shouldn’t have loaded guns in your safe in case of a fire… although I didn’t see where and fired in any gun but it’s something to think about!

The ATF will go right to the FFL if needed. And then all this is meaningless if the gun is sold privately. The best thing a serial number will tell you is if it was involved in a crime or the gun is stolen. After that, it's pure WGAF.

    @@mikenonia1763 Yes, it's water damage, but not from the firemen's hoses. The rust is from condensation upon cooling. There is a seal around the door that melts into place when heated and protects from water and smoke intrusion for about as long as the rest of the safe protects against heat. Whatever humidity control may have been in the safe was quickly destroyed by the fire's heat, as was any light coating of oil or preservative on the steel. When everything cooled, moisture in the air got through the now destroyed seal and condensed on the steel, and that's all it takes to get rust. If the safe had been flooded, all that insulation and other debris--which as we see is very dry and brittle--would have been a moldy, muddy mass.

    I recondition guns all the time that have been in fires. Most of the time if the gun has not been in direct contact with the fire you are good to go. House fires also produce toxic chemical smoke which is acidic and will cause rust without being exposed to water, also when the fire dept. puts water on the fire it creates steam which can travel through the air and finds its way into the cracks in the safe. The safe will have 2 ratings...1 is temperature 2 is how long it is exposed to that temperature such as 1400 degrees for 30 min. Typical house fire, if i am not mistaken burns at 1200 degrees for 30 or 45 minutes. I trick I was taught is to put 3 to 4 (whichever fit) 5 gallon jugs of water on top of the safe, as the fire buns and melts the jugs it will release water that will run down the safe cooling it enough to extend the time exposed to the fire.....hopefully I will never have to find out if it really works.

    Mark Sligar of course the buckets of water WILL NOT WORK. by the time the water gets to the point it’ll start melting the buckets the safe has already been cooking too long. You’re only adding more steam to the environment. Build a camp fire fill a styrofoam cup with water set it in the fire and you’ll see it will not melt until water evaporates or gets hot enough to melt it. I also disagree that any water got in that safe, the cardboard ammo boxes didn’t even show any signs of water damage or absorption.

    When powdered Portland cement is mixed with water it hydrates and becomes hardened Portland cement releasing heat as it hydrates. When exposed to high heat, it absorbs heat as it releases the water of hydration, as it loses its structure and returns to its powdered form. That is exactly what it is designed to do, and that is how it is able to meet the standards for a fire rating. The water released caused the guns to rust. A safe like this must be opened immediately after the fire to save any of the contents. Powdered gypsum, when mixed with water, similarly hydrates to form gypsum plaster and when heated absorbs the heat while releasing water vapor and returning to powdered gypsum.

    Keep in mind that that is only how this particular safe held up. It looks to be a fairly low budget unit as well, which is easily seen by the seams splitting open and the lack of thickness of the steel. I don't think even the best safes are "fire proof", as much as being "fire rated" for a specific amount of time. You can help your safe with this simply by building an enclosure around it with sheetrock. two layers of 1/2" sheetrock will give you an extra hour (maybe a bit longer) fire rating, and hopefully give the FD enough time to get the fire under control.

    I had a fire, we had two gun safes in the house. The larger more expensive one was a Winchester fire rated safe on the first floor. It got hot enough to damage the keypad on the front but most of the items in that room were just smoke damaged. The other was a a cheap “safe” that was more like a gun locker in the basement. That safe was fine despite every other gun in the house that was out of the safes looked like a boat anchor from the chemicals in the smoke/water within an hour of the fire being put out. The guns in the “fireproof” Winchester safe? No heat damage, but every weapon in that safe was destroyed by rust because it took 10 days to get a new electronic faceplate from the manufacturer (IIRC, Canon safes rebranded to Winchester). Guns that were in my wife’s family back to the Depression were absolutely ruined. Guys, here is a pro-tip: If you ever have a fire, GET A PUBLIC ADJUSTER AND DO NOT SIGN ANYTHING UNTIL YOU HAVE HIRED ONE. Don’t even call your insurance company first. Seriously, fires cost hundreds of thousands of dollars and it’s not like dealing with your agent over your wife’s fender bender…. You wouldn’t go to court without a lawyer, don’t go thru a fire claim without a public adjuster! I didn’t know what one was until my fire and a year and a half later I am almost back into our house-i would have had a completely different experience had I not hired a PA and I would have had everything i had coming to me taken by corrupt restoration companies. I even had to get the state attorney general involved in some if it….. GET A FUCKING Public Adjuster!

    I personally don’t buy “box store” safes. Such as basspro, Walmart, tractor supply etc. I research and buy quality safes. Look at reviews, warranties, and the overall company. Fort Knox safes, rhino, American safe company, Stewart’s safes, and such are of excellent quality and most are backed by an amazing warranty. I personally have a Rhino and a Stewart’s. Both are backed by a 1 million dollar warranty on contents ( from smoke and fire damage). Both have a 2500 degree 145 minute rating. Now they are quality safes and quality costs money. When you have $100,000’s worth of stuff in each safe, you want it protected in my opinion and spending $5000-7000 on a quality safe is just an afterthought at that point in my opinion. Also all the companies I listed, will come, get your belongings out of the safe for you, and also give you a brand new safe. It’s a 1 time purchase that will last a lifetime. Have forbid that anyone has to go through a house fire. If they do though, it’s good to have a quality safe. Again my opinion. I also understand not everyone can afford a $5000+ safe.

    It's thermodynamics. All insulation can do is buy you some time before the outside and inside temperatures normalize. I think the best ones can withstand an hour or something at a certain temperature. My detached garage actually caught fire some years back, and that's some serious fire and temperature. There were like 5 firetrucks... lol. But a whole house going up would be too intense to really expect to salvage much.

    Only cheap box store rifle safes use drywall or type x fireboard as fireproofing material. Drywall and fireboard releases moisture into the safe as it heats up thereby causing anything metal inside to rust. A quality safe uses either a concrete mix or a combination of furnace insulation and a 2300 Degree ceramic wool material to provide fire proofing. In the safe industry you get what you pay for.

    I have no experience in this particular area, however I was reminded of the San Francisco fire. It was found that safes that were opened soon after the fire had their combustible contents catch on fire immediately upon being exposed to air. I'm posting from memory, interested folk should do their own research. As I understand the matter, the water used to put the fire out does the most damage.

    To my knowledge the fire rating on safes using the "cement" (I haven't a clue what that fire retardant stuff is) fire retardant looses its viability over the years. The smaller safes I opened without a key or combination in the past the "cement" is enclosed in a plastic bag. The "cement" is pliable and has condensation inside the bag. So with age the small amount liquid evaporates. The exploding ammo probably imported. They aren't very good with tolerances when seating the bullets or primers. A few errant smoke less powder and its fireworks with a kick.

    I was surprised at how easy it was to cut into the safe back at their shop. That's why my gun safe is bolted to the wall and the cement floor. This reminds me of something I heard about car thieves when I lived in NYC. The main tools they would use were a flat bed truck and a fork lift. They would cruise down the street looking for the type of car they wanted. When they found the car, they would use the fork lift to pick it up and put it on their flat bed truck. Then they could take it back to their shop and have all the time they needed to strip it down so they could sell the parts. It's too bad you can't bolt your car down to it's parking space.

Please don’t be stupid and say that gun violence is worse in Brazil or Nigeria or Somalia. Compare the USA with like countries.

    All of these guns are salvageable. How do I know? The polymer handguards on those AR15s did not melt, nor did the aluminum receivers. It did not get hot enough in there to compromise the steel. Likely even the springs are still good. The rust is also probably just surface rust, and there may still be bluing underneath it. But either way all that rust can be removed or converted to bluing and they can be refinished. Every single one of these can be fixed with a bit of time, effort, and money. A few of those ARs could probably be made functional with just a few minutes of cleaning. Boresnake, swab the chamber, wipe out the BCG channel, and in about 5 minutes they should be serviceable if ugly.
