These mount in beaver-tail of TH. They are big and would work if you can set up a rack system inside them to hold each gun safely to avoid damage to them. And maybe make a ammo compartment in side of one box also...
They aren't gunsafe thick metal, but pretty heavy duty and they do have a locking mechanism. The real theft deterrent would be to have them under the carpet out of site with your SxS on top of them..?

My trailer came with one big one that runs across the width of the garage- However, the bottom is just a plastic tub. For sure you would want to install a metal shroud to protect some road hazard from ripping the bottom of the tub out and leaving your guns on the road behind you.

Lots of companyies make steel gun cabinets with locking door.
I wouldn't want my guns to be the subject of bouncing an shaking around against each other in the cabinet, anywhere in an RV though.

I had a safe in my toyhauler and was able to bolt it to the floor because there was a storage compartment underneath. Use a steel plate on the underside and sandwich a second one between floor and safe if you need to distribute base weight. I used carriage bolts with lock nuts on the inside of the safe.
I would not worry too much about left to right weight balance in your TH unless it is a small one with low payload capacity. You could put one smaller safe in each forward corner if balance will be an issue.
BTW: I have seen a rolling mechanic's tool box bolted down after the wheels were removed. Locking cross bars secure the drawers in place and foam cutouts are in each drawer for the weapons.

I pored over this when we began full-timing 2 years ago We sometimes deploy the porch and I did not want anything in the garage that looked like a safe, and I came to realize that a real safe is just not an option, so I opted to give my 2 sons all but 4 of my guns. I get to shoot the ones gifted once or twice a year when we visit them. I have found several places in our rig to conceal weapons/ammo and do so. I carry daily, so there's only 3 left in the rig any time we're gone. Of course when we're in states that my LTC/CHL doesn't apply, I have them all secured. The OPSEC is the main thing in my mind. There are no stickers on the rig, truck or motorcycle, and I don't own or wear any shirts to make one think I might own weapons.

One other thing I forgot to mention - re-key the locks on your RV. RVLocksAndMore is a good place to use. All of ours were re-keyed, are not on a common key, and we eliminated the master-keyed cylinders (marked with an M) on the handle locks as an extra precaution. Again, it makes someone take more time because a master key won't work.
