Mesa Safes MBF5922E Gun Safe - 1 Hour Fire 14 Gun Safe
Hi! And thanks for your interest in the Mesa MBF5922 Gun Safe. I’m Shannon with Gunsafes.com, and I’m going to give you a little run down on this model and touch on all of the great features it has to offer. One of our hottest sellers this year, the Mesa MBF series, and the 5922 specifically, has been at the head of the pack, due to its unique size and competitive price point.
Packed with an impressive list of security features and specs, let me start discussing what you’ll find in this safe, working from the outside in, beginning with the body construction. It’s constructed of 12 gauge steel, which contributes to the total overall wall thickness of 1 5/8”, when combined with the fire resistant material. The door itself measures in at a thickness of 4 3/8”. And contained within that 4 3/8” you’ll find a 3-way locking system consisting of 12, 1 ½” diameter, solid steel locking bolts, a drill resistant hard plate and a punch activated relocking system. This trifecta of security offers a provides confidence when it comes to defending your valuables from burglary attack and keeping your fire arms out of the hands of young and inexperienced family members; preventing the possibility of any dangerous accidents.
In addition to all of these security features, Mesa has equipped their MBF series with your choice of mechanical or electronic locks. The LaGard mechanical lock is a U.L. listed group II combination dial that is resistant to semiskilled manipulation attacks. The electronic lock used is the Mesa’s own MSL-50. Although it is not U.L. rated, it does come equipped with a low battery warning, a multiple invalid code defense and is programmable with up to two unique users.
Also contributing to the MBF5922’s top ranking as one of our most popular safes is its 1 hour fire rating at 1750 degrees. Factory tested, it keeps the internal temperature at or below 350 degrees when conditions are kept within the perimeters above. And its heat activated intumescent door seal assists in protecting your valuables, by expanding to 5 times its original size, creating an impenetrable barrier to fire and smoke, as well as creating the added benefit of some water resistance.
As you move inside the safe, you’ll find a fully convertible interior, which allows you to switch from a long gun and shelf configuration to an all long gun option, utilizing its full storage capacity for 14 long guns. And carpet from top to bottom ensures that your barrels and stocks are protected from scratching. The bottom is predrilled with mounting holes and does come with mounting hardware. However, weighing in at 502 lbs, this step may not be entirely necessary.
So, taking into consideration, the full list of security features and conveniences most desired by gun enthusiasts, the MBF5922 gun safe continues to be one of my top recommendations of great gun safe at a great value, and I can only bet will continue to be one our best sellers moving forward.
