So it begins.....
BIL #1 sends Kristi multiple texts asking if he can have the FIL's Acura MDX. This goes without mentioning that my FIL gave him a very nice Acura sedan a two years ago which was totaled by his loser son from marriage #2 within two weeks of having it. 1/2 BIL wants some specific pieces of very expensive jewelry and numerous other things around the house. This guy never spoke to my FIL unless he wanted something which was always money.
Fortunately my lovely wife is very experienced at saying "No" and sticking with it (I have personal experience with this).
We have come across a mystery safe. Pretty sure there are important documents in there and possibly some more jewelry. Does anyone know how to open a Sentry model A3807 Fire Safe without the combo? It also has a key which we have but I am trying to keep from taking a Sawz-All or high speed to the hinges.

Evening Russ. Sounds like the drama party is on.
The key doesn't work?
Call or take the safe to a locksmith. That's what I had to do once upon a time.

The key is like a second lock. It unlocks but we don't have the combo. Probably gonna take it to a locksmith.

Had a guy move out of a rental once owing me a substantial sum of money for damage and back rent. He abandoned a bunch of stuff including a gun safe because he knew I was about to get his ***.
Had to store the stuff for a while to make it legal and then had a locksmith come and unlock the safe. He had it open in about 30 minutes and then changed the combination for me. I still use it.
