- V-Line Compact Keyless Gun Safe, CA DOJ Certified Portable Quick Access Pistol Safe for a Handgun and Ammo. Mechanical Lock. Great for Single Handgun When Traveling.

Just wanted to take a minute to leave a review on the V-Line gun storage security. I received the box and was excited to try it out. We bought two of them. Right off the bat you can see the build quality was excellent. The knob is responsive and the buttons have good tension. You know everything works right out of the box. The inside of the safe has padding, so your gun is not going to just be rattling around. The real test is the ease of use. We purchased the safes with this type of locking mechanism to avoid the need to change batteries or have a spare key lying around waiting to get lost. I must say that I was impressed. The instructions inside are very clear and setting a new code is simple. The default code even demonstrates how many combination possibilities there are, For a safe that is so simple to use, it has a good number of features that will secure your firearm. My only caution for anyone looking to purchase this for a full size gun with any extended magazine is to go one size larger than the compact version. Everything will fit, but just a little tight. I love the compact size, so I made it work. This compact box is a pleasant surprise. It fits perfectly in all my drawers, so it gives me many options if I choose to mount this safe. This is definitely a great price for the product. Less expensive safes just don't have the conveniences that the V-Line Compact Security box does. I am realy happy with the built quality and the ease of use.

This is exactly the box that I was looking for, solid build with a simplex lock. Wanted a small secure box that I could get into reliably fast. The box is small (see photos and banana for scale) but comfortably fits a compact pistol, extra mag and a box of ammo. No batteries to die, no easily picked tumbler lock and quick reliable access without the need for a key (you know you are going to lose it). Strong enough for the home, small enough to take on the road. Of course there is one thing that I would like to see improved. The lock on the interior of the box takes up a fair amount of real estate and does not have a protective cover. I can see with a full size pistol this possibly causing damage when the box is closed. Kinda pricy but I am happy with the purchase!

I purchased this to serve as a quick-action pistol safe to utilize in my home. Before doing so I established my criteria. First, I wanted something that used a simplex mechanical lock. Low-cost digital locks that utilize low-grade electronics seem rife for failure. Plus, I wasn't interested in changing batteries. I'm already bad about changing the air filters in my house, I didn't want to be locked of my life-saving tool because I forgot to swap out some AA's. Second, I wanted something sturdy that wouldn't be easily opened by simply slamming it on the ground. Seriously, watch YouTube. Many of the less expensive safes will just pop open if they hit the ground hard enough. Lastly, I didn't need a massive safe. A small, single handgun, safe was more than sufficient. The Good: In all of those criteria, the V-Line safe was excellent. The simplex lock is easy to use. I'm assuming if I ever need to use this it will be in the middle of the night and in the dark. The audible and tactile response from the buttons give me assurance that I could literally retrieve my firearm blind folded with only a little practice. Furthermore, the thickness and strength of the construction is obvious. The thing is stinking heavy. I have great assurances that you won't be able to pry this thing open. And lastly, while there isn't tons of space in the case, it adequately fits my Glock 17 with a mounted light and a spare magazine (and with a little room to spare even). Hard to complain since that's everything I was hoping it'd store. The Bad: The confines of the case are certainly cramped, even if it does fit my firearm. Now, that's not a major complaint for me. As I said, it fits exactly what I need it to fit - including a tactical light and a spare magazine. But it did take a little trial and error to determine how to place the gun in the case in order for it to close. The simplex lock is on the lid of the case, but it needs a space for it to come down into the case when closed and locked. This means that just because things fit in the case it might not close. Still, once I learned to just put the hammer (or where the hammer would be if it weren't a striker-fired pistol) as far as I could in the upper right-hand corner it was a non-issue. Still, if you're looking to store more than one pistol in the case it's probably going to be a struggle. The other concern I had was a lack of mounting options on the bottom of the case. It has a slot cut through the steel where a cable could be attached (not included, you must buy that separately). But I was hoping to physically mount this inside a drawer or to some other solid surface. No dice. Honestly, that's a very easy feature to add and it's unclear why they didn't just cut a few holes in the back to provide this option. Practical examples: I've tried to upload photos with this review but Amazon is being goofy and won't let me. But below are the pistols that I tested with this case. All of them were able to close and lock without issue with a magazine in the weapon. Glock 17 - with mounted light plus 1 spare magazine Glock 43 - with finger extension magazine in the well plus 1 spare magazine Ruger LCP - plus 1 spare magazine Kimber 1911 TLE II (full size 1911) - plus 1 spare magazine M57 Tokarev (Yugoslavian model with longer grip) Canik TP9SF

This a very nice lock box. I purchased it over an electronic safe to not have to deal with changing batteries, keeping a spare key, and having to worry about a safe dying and me not being able to access my firearm. The lock is very nice with positive, firm clicks. It is very easy to reset the combination and there are endless combinations you can create. It is quite small, especially with the locking mechanism protruding down into the case so much. It fits my Springfield XDs only pointing left without hitting the lock, and has room for an extra magazine. It is a very sturdy, good quality safe, and I see no way to break into it. The only drawback I can see other than the protruding lock is that the lever is quite loud when turning it to unlock the safe. There is a pretty loud click when turning the dial, which I was disappointed to discover, but it isn't a deal breaker.

I would give zero stars if I could. I bought this safe in September 2025. Today, December 9TH 2025, the lock failed and would not open with my combination. I used this safe almost daily. What if it had been an emergency? Regardless, I drilled the lock out and retrieved my firearm. For $200 this is absolute garbage! DO NOT BUY THIS. IT WILL FAIL ON YOU.

The most important things for me in looking for a gun safe is 1.) strength of material, 2.) easy of access, 3.) reliability. The material is great, and had no problems after many tries of unlocking, resetting, and locking. The problem however is that unless you bolt the safe to the ground, when you try to open the safe, the whole safe moves up and the top basically sticks in the case and adds an extra 3-4 seconds to opening it. It makes it harder and less accessible in a hurry.

Lock works great. No key or batteries is a benefit.
