At first I thought..."Safe arrival"?
What kind did you get? 20 gun, 30 gun, how many shelves? Enough space for ammo?
Combination lock, key/combination pair, bolted to the foundation, that sort of stuff.
Being in Texas is good too! Glad you're here!

Every time this thread title shows up in the list, that's my first thought too!

Kinda like what I thought when I saw this thread title -"how would you draw your gun with a dog?" I tried to think how I could strap a pencil on his paw, and guide it on the paper, but it really wouldn't represent a very good drawing in the end, and probably disappoint the dog.

The process so far has been astonishingly smooth. Our home in Coronado closed right on schedule, the moving crew had worked like rented mules to load an enormous truck with all our belongings, the drive with guns, ammo, and cats was trouble free. My Lexus LS430 was getting ~25 mpg on the long freeway drive, very gratifying for a big comfortable V-8. The worst part was staying overnight in El Paso, which is at something like 4,000' elevation. Even tethered to the O2 concentrator it was hard going.
Escrow closes on our new home today while we head over to Houston to pick up my sister in law arriving from France. The furniture arrives tomorrow and the real work begins!
It sure is hot.

HEY WELCOME HOME!
Yep El Paso is a chore. When I go home to visit it takes me 2 days to stop yawning from the lack of oxygen...
Congrats on the home. Where are you located? If you are coming to Houston then maybe you are close to Houston? If you are the missus and I would love to take you out for a dinner. We live in Richmond which is far south west Houston.
Here quick! BUY SOME PMAGS!!!!
