Browning Introduces New Hunter Series Safe

Morgan, UT – Value packed with security features and storage convenience usually reserved for higher priced models, the Hunter Series is the newest addition to the 2014 Browning ProSteel safe line-up.

The Hunter Series features the exclusive Axis Adjustable Shelving System (pistol rack included) and premium DPX Storage System with Quick Access Barrel Rack and Scope Saver. The Scope Saver allows long guns with optics to fit easily onto the door without taking up additional space inside the safe.

The Force Deflector™ Locking System uses a rotating cam that prevents forces applied to the handle or bolts from reaching the lock. Hardened steel pin lock protection guards against drill attack.

Pry-Stop End Bolts and 1¼” diameter chromed locking bolts on three sides of door help protect against pry attack. Hunter Series safes feature a 1200° F/60 minute fire protection rating.
