As far as the gun safe goes for my new place, I am going to buy one for the main purpose of storing my clients' special documents (e.g., wills) and I am going to write the entire safe off for income tax purpose. I think I am going to get one of the large ones and just keep it in the garage. I'll just have to make sure that it isn't easily visible. As far as the insurance goes, I still haven't made a decision about it.
After addressing the same trouble as some of you here, IE: having to place a gun safe in a somewhat visible location, a garage. I came up with a good solution.

Build an enclosing cabinet that surrounds the safe, making it "Stand out" less. Build it somewhat crudely, to look like a old storage cabinet. Also only open or use said safe/cabinet behind closed doors.

While this won't keep everyone out, it will keep it away from "prying eyes". I feel that this is where most of Our worries are about anyway.
