In thinking about you problem I googled your old safe CO and found a BBB listing that said the owner of your safe co is now working under
the name of OC Safe co. They have a listing and address and phone numbers. This might not be important to you but the locksmith you choose
might get a drawing of the locking and relockers. Maybe drillone small hole and reset the relocker without massive damage to safe. in which case the safe can be repaired very easily They have some videos on Utube showing that brand of safe from several years ago. Not all locksmiths are skilled
safe men. But mostly this is about money and risk to your firearms.
Google the National Safemans Association and see if they recommend a safe man in your area. A magazine called The National locksmith may also
offer some good advice.
I think I better quit right here as I cannot practice locksmithing.
