Sports Afield is a specific hunting brand that produces much more than just gun safes. They are famous for their hunting adventure magazine which was established in 1887 and through the ages it has changed its owners and publications many times.
But, the things that interest us are the products with the Sports Afield name on it, specifically gun safes. They haven’t produced Sports Afield gun safe models since 1887, but they do have the knowledge about storing firearms so you can expect good quality models in their offer.
Advantages Of Sports Afield Gun Safe Brand
They know A Lot About Firearms
A hunting adventure magazine is all about firearms so you can expect a certain level of expertise among their writers, workers and even directors. When your business revolves around hunting you have to show to your readers and customers that you know what you are doing. That is why you can be sure that their professionalism is up to speed.
They Offer Different Types Of Gun Safes
Hunting is mostly revolved around rifles and other long guns and I like the fact that they did different types of gun safes no matter the firearms. It means that most of their gun safes are made to store long guns, but they also managed to produce small gun safes for pistols and handguns because they are aware the diversity any hunter can experience.
Their Gun Safes Come With The DOJ Approval
The DOJ approval means that almost every gun safe model in their offer has the green light from the California Department of Justice as a safe storage space for firearms. That is a good enough proof that the Sports Afield safe manufacturer knows what he is doing and he cares about the quality and performance.
Sports Afield Gun Safe Reviews
Sports Afield SA-RV1 Lightning Handgun Vault
This series is the only handgun series in the Sports Afield gun safe offer. This handgun safe comes in different sizes and the first one I want to show you is a drawer safe and it is called like that because it has a top door that allows you to open the safe and grab the gun without pulling the safe out of the drawer. Its drawer design makes it slim and small so you can store only one handgun inside, so if you want to store more guns, pick a bigger version of this gun safe.
The construction of the safe is made of durable material from the outside and foam to prevent damages from the inside. The lock on the safe is the digital combination which means that you have to get the batteries for it – they don’t come with the safe. The interior is equipped with a red light so you can see where the gun is during a complete dark, but the light is not too bright so you won’t get noticed because of it. Like every gun safe with an electronic lock, this safe has a backup lock and key so you can unlock the safe if the batteries end up empty during the time and you haven’t replaced them.
