I have been thinking about getting insurance for my firearms, even though I do have a fireproof gun safe over my parents that I keep them in and they are also "insured" through H&K when they are at my place. I just moved into the new place 5 months ago and haven't really transferred any of the guns here other than my H&K handgun. However, I have been thinking about buying a gun safe for this place too, albeit a little smaller of one than I have at my parents' place. My problem is where I will keep it in my townhouse. There just isn't a lot of room other than in the garage and I hate the fact that everybody can look into my garage as it is.

So, insurance might be my only alternative while I am living here. Of course, I could always buy a really fancy safe and just stick it in the living/dining room.

As far as privacy is concerned, I seriously doubt that the gov't will be looking to insurance companies for the info. When we buy guns, their serial numbers are registered as it is. Since mine are almost all new guns, the gov't already knows what I have except for a couple of exceptions. So, I'm not too worried about getting insurance and providing serial numbers. Plus, if they truly do outlaw firearms, I probably wouldn't try to keep mine, even though I would be really pissed off.
