Me/we too. I haven't locked anything in years but then everyone out this way knows I'm nuts and own a lot of firearms. I suspect that goes a long way toward discretion.

I need to move out to your area of the country. Have had 2 break-in attempts at my S&B.
Heck, I'd be HAPPY living next door to SidecarFlip.

I don't live that far from you really...( I surmise you live north of AA and south of 96. I live south of AA and north of Toledo. Just where I live is extremely rural and not too many people around so when a stranger appears, everyone is watching, everyone around here has bino's and firearms.
Cannot live here (next door), I own the property on both sides to the tune of 100 acres.

Us too! In September, we went out of town for 19 days. When we returned, or garage door was wide open, a broom had fallen and popped the door back open while we were driving away. Nothing was touched. 3 Harleys, a TV, and all of my husband's tools in the wide open. The door to the house was unlocked. We could have been wiped out, but all was as we left it. I'm not recommending this kind of openness to anyone, but it's still good to know that we were OK. In fact, we were a little disappointed that one of the neighbors didn't go in and close things up for us since it was still our rainy season.

I have a friend who lives out, but has neighbors. He often goes out and blasts 30-50 rounds just to remind neighbors he IS crazy and owns weapons.

Please stick to the topic at hand. No more gun talk.
General discussions of politics, general government policies, weaponry, gun rights and religion are not allowed in ANY areas of the forum. Discussions about current or pending legislation or regulations, weapons and religion that directly pertain to RVing are acceptable but will be closed or removed if they wander off topic or become disruptive.

I've been looking at these to have before we take delivery in few weeks. Do the chains also fit in that model? If so, do you know the lock model? Thanks!
