Our neighbor passed away and his daughter was having an estate sale. We bought a large gun safe from her that is open but the lock is locked so we cannot shut it. It is a combination lock. We have tried calling Browning and we followed the instructions on the website and the automated instruction Manuel. It says to fax them all the info and how you came to own the safe etc... Then give them 24-48 hrs to contact you. It's been a week though. Any ideas on how to get it unlocked? How much does a locksmith cost and will they open a safe. I wouldn't think that it would be a big ordeal considering the safe is open already. I just need the locked unlocked. Couldn't pass up the deal on the safe, it sure was a good one.

How do you unlock a gun safe that you don't know the combo too?

Inside the door on the door should be a plate with screws pull the plate off and start turning the knob until the tumblers fall and look what number it is on then based on how many tumblers tells you how many turns and the direction. I had to do this with my safe which had 4 numbers so it actually turns the wrong direction for the first number
