IMO it would as you cant remove the weight unless you have access so at this point weight of the safe during theft is irrelevant because if they have access to remove the weight they will just take the guns and frget about the safe.

Not in QLD it doesn't.
QLD Weapons Regulation 2016 Section 94

(a) for a category D, H or R weapon—be a rigid structure
made of solid steel and be bolted to the frame or floor of
a permanent building; or
(b) for any other weapon—
(i) be a rigid structure made of solid steel or solid
timber; and
(ii) if the container weighs less than 150kg—be
securely fixed to the frame or floor of a permanent

I replied to what you said above. The law does not state empty. Don't move the goal posts.
Once again, I already agreed its not allowed.

So you're saying the law does not require the safe to be empty?
You are arguing semantics, to no purpose that I can see...
