Key Specs at a Glance
Big 40-Gun Capacity in a Smart, Space-Saving Footprint
The Bandit 31 is designed for shooters and collectors who need substantial capacity without a massive vault. With storage for up to 40 long guns, this safe gives you the room to consolidate: hunting rifles, tactical AR-style builds, shotguns, and heirloom firearms in one secure location. Winchester Safes+2Tractor Supply Co.+2
At 60" tall, 40" wide, and 22" deep, it’s large enough to feel substantial while still fitting through standard doorways and into many closets, corners, or dedicated gear spaces. The approx. 30.5 cu. ft. interior means you’re not just squeezing guns in—you’ll also have usable space for cases, ammo, optics, and documents. Winchester Safes+2Gun Safes+2

GunStiXX™ Vertical Storage – Maximize Your 40-Gun Capacity
One of the Bandit 31’s biggest advantages over many traditional 40-gun safes is its GunStiXX™ vertical storage system. Instead of forcing every rifle and shotgun into a crowded single rack, GunStiXX allows you to store guns upright by the barrel, opening up the interior.
Includes 16 GunStiXX™ from the factory Winchester Safes+1
Works with rifles and shotguns down to about .20 caliber
Lets you customize your layout and spacing, improving access and organization
Helps prevent stocks and optics from constantly banging against neighboring firearms
Combined with the easy-access U-shaped barrel racks and auxiliary shelves, GunStiXX helps you get a real 40-gun capacity in day-to-day use, not just on paper. Gun Safes+3Winchester Safes+3Gun Safes+3
Interior Organization, Lighting & Power-Ready Design
The SECWINB31-SL-E is built for everyday usability, not just raw security numbers. Inside, you’ll find a flexible layout that adapts to your collection over time:
The result is a 40-gun safe that’s easy to keep organized, whether you’re accessing it daily or once a week.
Slate Finish & Clean, Modern Aesthetic
On the outside, the Bandit 31 features a durable powder-coated slate finish with a 3-spoke chrome vault handle. Winchester Safes+2Gun Safes+2
Neutral slate gray color blends into most interiors—bedrooms, home offices, dens, and garages
Powder-coat finish helps hide minor scuffs from daily use
Clean branding and simple lines give the safe a professional, low-profile look rather than a flashy distraction
If you want a safe that looks at home in a finished space but still feels at place in a workshop, the SECWINB31-SL-E hits that balance.
Built for Responsible Firearm & Valuables Storage
A high-quality safe is a cornerstone of responsible firearm ownership and secure valuables storage. The Winchester Bandit 31 is designed to help you:
Keep guns and gear out of unauthorized hands
Centralize long guns, handguns, optics, cash, and key documents in one secure place
Add meaningful protection against both fire and burglary
