    These are only massmart brands - other manufacturers must do their own recalls for their safes. And I am sure Yale is one of them also.

    Sorry to revive an old thread, but any idea if this safe will be affected by this issue? Looks quite solid coming from a specialist safe company

    I can't find a negative review, my assumption is that it won't be affected because it is a rifle sized safe and the handgun safes opened with potatoes and the like need a decent rap on the top to deactivate the magnet.


    A shelf on top of the safe would prevent this sort of attack too, consider that as additional safety measures.

    I don't know. The foto with the big green mark is of an air rifle. Making this a suitable safe for air rifles.

    As far as I know you don't need a super duper safe for an air rifle.

    All jokes aside, if you can open the safe with electricity, it is not as secure as you think.

    An electronic safe is an iffy solution looking for a problem. Every one I have ever seen first hand has an 'emergncy' key anyway. Never got the point.

    The safari electronic ones dont have a key. I own one and it works perfectly. Didnt want to hassle to look for a key, not ever

    I don't think that Austen would make a kak safe

    Even if it were, you would battle to get the energy transfer necessary to make the lever bounce in such a large safe.
    I would trust it.
