Puh-leeze. Rather throw that $300 into a shotgun.
Sparky, the wife doesnt use the safe I bought her, she puts the F-ing gun in the sock drawer. We have a 3 year old, and the sock drawer as a hiding place makes me nervous, even if its only at night while I'm travelling.
$300 bucks is CHEAP insurance in this case for me.

-- Gun box looks like expensive costume jewelry for the night stand. The same $$ can buy you better protection.
