The Gun Box, a Lehi, UT-based developer of a gun storage system that only opens with unique RF and fingerprint ID, raised $139k via Indiegogo.
It will begin shipping preordered units on December 12, 2013.

– Fully enclosed internal hinges
– Several mounting holes for discreet storage in almost any orientation
– USB ports (for power distribution to mobile devices)
