Imagine a fire-rated gun safe hidden inside a custom built couch, with bullet proof cushions with carry straps, so they can be used on the fly as a shield. That’s the first line of advertising for a product now built in Texas. Are you surprised? All I can say is, "I want one."
The gun safe has a two hour rating and the optional cushions can stop a 44 magnum at point blank range according to the information on their website. Another nice feature is that the couch and safe weigh about 900 pounds. Not many burglars are going to wrestle that out your front door. Did I mention it makes a great guest bed?
How could any gun nut like me not want one? Just imagine watching all the gun action TV shows and just reaching under the cushion and to join in waving a few firearms around.
The kicker is the cost - about $9000 and I don’t know if that includes all the options. I didn’t see a cup holder on the one pictured on the website. These have to be a big item at Christmas in East Texas. Maybe I’ve lived here too long.
I’m starting to think like them.
