Key or Combination or both needed

Forgot how to dial the combination on that old safe? Think you got the right numbers but the handle is stuck? What safe should you buy? Ask your safe questions here!

first thing I want to say thanks to all the locksmiths and everyone here in general. Your willingness to help me I am very grateful. I just don't want to not say nothing, I believe more needs to be said and more people need to be willing to help. Not just in forums, at the gas pump, the post office, the store, a simple how's it going today can mean a lot to some people, it does me. The senseless violence in Ventura ca, it's just sad. Sorry to bring this up and get off track here.
I'm here if anyone needs to vent or anything. I ain't no safe cracker but I am one hell of a listener.
If anyone needs a break, I'm I'm the mountains east of Bakersfield ca. Have a bunk house and my wife has a horse rescue. Come on out and enjoy a day or two. That's how I can help.
Equine Rescue Outakuntrol , long story about the name.
Thanks for listening, Once again I'm sorry for getting off the subject. Thanks, Al

RUST: Your safe more than likely uses the S&G R6730 lock, mounted VD.

Thanks for that information bit-buster. I was dispatched to the fire in Malibu Ca. With that finally contained i can try once again to gain access for my inlaw. If I can talk her into letting me bring it here I will get in it. But she wants the safe in the condition it's in. I can understand that. She also has no clue what all is in there as my father in law was the keeper of the safe and he passed nearly ten years ago. I am anxious to see myself as she wants me to take the guns to my ranch. She said her dads rifle is in there, she's 80 yrs old I can only dream about what rifle her dad might have had. So here I go again. Time to make some calls and even go back down south and try to dial the numbers I do have. I'll keep you all posted and again thank you all for the help.

Spencer?, Sharps?, Winchester?, an old Flintlock? All the above? Good Luck in Malibu, Have a customer/friend whose house was Damaged by Mudslide in Malibu, This may have finished it off?
