I bought a 72" tall locker off Amazon and used a rifle rack I already had on hand to hold 3 long guns in here. Then I got some led motion sensor lights that mounted magnetically to the underside of the shelves. I plan on eventually making a whole wall for my gear out of plywood with this nested inside it as a gun locker or buying a good gun safe and just putting my gear in here. I haven't made up my mind yet, but this will serve the purpose of keeping my kid away from my guns under normal circumstances. I originally planned to buy a vaultek rifle safe that compliments my existing pistol safe, but for under $200 bucks I couldn't justify not building this thing.

I know this is nowhere near good enough for keeping thieves out, but that ain't what this is for. This is for keeping my school age kid from getting to my long guns while still being able to move this to my next apartment with little fuss if I decide to move. If someone decides to take a pry ar to this thing, a sub $1k safe probably wouldn't stop them.
