ABSTRACT:
A safe for a loaded hand gun has a box which includes a receptacle for containing the gun. The receptacle has a bottom providing a mounting surface. A lid is hingedly mounted on the box and is movable between a closed position covering the receptacle and an open position in which the gun is accessible. A locking device normally holds the lid in its closed position, and a touch pad mechanism is operable only by authorized personnel provides for releasing the locking device when access to the gun is desired, permitting the lid to move to its open position. The touch pad may be a numerical touch pad, an alphabetical touch pad or a fingerprint indentification touch pad. The mounting surface has a mounting hole for use in attaching the safe to another structure. A pressure sensitive pad is affixed to the mounting surface at the mounting hole and is positioned to be overlapped by the head of a mounting screw. An audible alarm system is actuatable by the pressure sensitive pad in the event of unauthorized attempted forcible removal of the safe from the structure on which the safe is mounted will cause the screw head to apply a squeezing pressure to the pad.
