Where exactly do you put your rifles and shotguns at home? That’s the question for many people in the US, and for some the best answer to this is the Stack-On 16 Gun Cabinet.
How many people in the US need storage space for hunting rifles? In 2011, a national survey found that the total number of hunters in the US were about 13.7 million.
That’s more people hunting than there are people playing baseball, which is supposedly the country’s national sport. The numbers are also increasing dramatically for women who hunt, as there are 72% more of them than there were in 2007.
However, these rifles need to be secured. If you own several of these, you don’t want children or strangers getting at them too easily.

Whom is the Stack-On 16 Gun Safe/Cabinet Designed For?
Storage: that’s what the Stack-On 16 Gun Tactical Cabinet is for. You have a suitable place to store your hunting rifles in a way that keeps the rifles in good condition, while you can also use it to store your other firearms accessories.

So this Stack-On SS-16-MB-C cabinet is designed for families with lots of hunting rifles (16 at the most) who need secure storage for their firearms. It’s also for those who use hunting bows, as these can fit inside too.
Features of the Stack-On 16 Gun Safe
Here are the features you can expect:
Huge Space
It can hold up to 16 firearms that are 54 inches long at the most. So that should be enough for rifle collectors. The interior is fully carpeted so that the rifles don’t get scuffed.
It’s also great for families which have many of the family members hunting. Even if each family member has 2 or 3 rifles, they can all fit.
Even if you don’t use hunting rifles and use hunting bows instead, this is still a great option. You can fit those things inside too.
Easy To Organize
It’s also easy to put in and organize other firearms accessories inside. You just have the single removable shelf on top so you’re not cluttered by too many shelves.
In addition, you also have two drawers by the other side of the door. All these storage compartments can be used for ammo and other firearms- related equipment.
You can also put in other stuff too.
Use Combination Lock
It uses a combination lock. That means it’s very reliable since you’re not using an electronic lock that requires batteries.
Electronic locks are often subject to weird flaws and bugs. Also, you have to keep checking that the batteries are still good.
With a combination lock, it’s all mechanical. There are no electronic bugs to worry about, and there’s no need to keep buying batteries.
It’s easy to use too. They’re the de facto locks used in various school lockers all over the country.
Add the drill resistant plate and the 6 locking points, and you know this is very secure.
Weight
The weight is great too. It weighs 144 pounds which is just about right. It’s not as heavy as the 500-pound safes that are dangerous for your floors and joints when you put them on the 2nd
The weight of the safe is also light enough for 2 people to lift it together to an upper floor up the stairs. But a lone thief won’t be able to lift this up easily.
For maximum security, you can also bolt this safe to the floor and to the wall. It comes with pre-drilled holes.
Great Design
It looks great too. You won’t be embarrassed putting this in plain sight in your living room or bedroom.
You have 2 choices for colors. You can choose green or black, with chrome accents.
