We the audience are learning 2 things with your 'gun lock' series. First, the manufacturers of gun locks focus more on the securing method than the actual lock they employ. They spend countless hours (no doubt) designing a system to incapacitate a firearm, but then just get the cheapest lock they can find to secure that system. The result is a gun lock with obvious shortcomings. The second thing we are learning is you have a nice collection of guns. Probably a understanding wife too.
Thanks... as for the understanding of my wife, she grew up overseas in a war-torn region and has witnessed the atrocities that can result from a disarmed population. As such, she is quite supportive of my "other hobby." If there was any "understanding" required with this particular gun, it was with respect to the amount of time I put into it. After getting the proper approval and paying the applicable tax, I built it in my basement out of de-militarized parts and a homemade receiver. Building an AK (well) is quite time-consuming.
I watched the video again. Nice work on the receiver. It doesn't look homemade (at least on this side). Given your wife's background, I'm sure she has an interesting opinion of our (the USA's) recent political strife from the last presidential election. Looking forward to the Ozlock picking.
man. i keep watching his videos only to see over and over again that he is misrepresenting these locks.. they arent made to be unpick-able - they are made so that you cant just pull them off with your hands. they require at a minimum a tool of some sort to use.
@@HudsonGTV he literally says Romania in his comment. And depending on the country and power level of the pellet gun, it may be legally considered a firearm
When they say child guard i'm sure they mean small children like 1-6 or so that will accidentally pull the trigger if its not in a safe which is should be. Not some older 12-18 maybe kid looking to shoot up a school or something.
One of my friends had an old, dirt cheap super busted up AR that he would claim was "striker fired" since it would only shoot when you struck it super hard into something like the ground or a tree. Was super sketchy and we only shot it a couple times
I think the red pins around the trigger DO have metal inside them, it's just that there's plastic over the tips so you can't see them. Try sawing one in half to see for sure.
Don't most tungsten alloys range from just barely magnetic to almost completely non-magnetic? Even if the pins do contain some metal, I think the housing is too fragile. Depending on the construction of the gun, I have used padlocks with shackles large enough to completely fill the space behind the trigger. So for example, an AR with a completely enclosed trigger guard could have some extra security added with a thick-shackle padlock. But one with a hinged winter trigger guard would not be a candidate for this. Sure, even a solid trigger guard's aluminum could be easily cut with a hacksaw but then you're getting into destructive attacks which could defeat most any lock if causing some damage to the gun is not an issue.
Cheesus Sliced But they seemed awfully bendy when he touched them. But then they are held by rubber anyway, and as long as the lock can't be ripped off the trigger by yanking the lock it's good enough if the clamshell is secure against the children in question.
@@johnfrancisdoe1563 well yea, thats the whole point at the end of the day. Keep the childrens wandering fingers off the boom stick. I'm just saying before stating they are only rubber they should probably be cut because even magnet tests can be unreliable to check for metal (see stainless steel, tungsten carbide, aluminium, etc).
Guns locks are easy to get in. As a novice picker with no real skill i easily raked into one of my triggers locks. I believe the main point of these locks is to prevent accidental use or someone from being able to immediately access the weapon without authorization and in that they do their job.
@Deon Denis yes but you'd have to do some work and most people are too lazy to do it, buying a crappy trigger lock is so much less work and thinking. Heck there are still thousands of guns laying around households completely unguarded, there are even idiots sleeping with loaded firearms in their bed.
I am a child. The best child lock is to INCLUDE your child when you go to the range. My dad did. He let me see and hold the guns when they went off. I KNEW what kind of power they had because I felt and heard it. It also showed me it wasn’t a toy, because I saw what the bullet did to the targets. I had a friend over when I was 10. He wanted me to open the RFID lockbox with a Glock 22. Because it would be “cool”. Sigh. I wish his parents did the same for him as mine did for me.
@Chloe I really like that. Regardless of your stance on gun control, THIS is how you teach responsibility. It is called respect, and respect doesn't JUST mean respecting other people; it also means respecting what you are dealing with. Guns, cars, industrial sites, construction sites ... if you don't have respect for them, you will end up hurt or dead.
In this lock's defense, it's called the child guard, I think it's only meant to stop young kids from grabbing it and pulling the trigger. It's not really meant to secure it against thieves or attackers. At least that's the impression I get, I could be wrong.
The BIG problem with that attitude is that kids grow up fast. People will buy this and it's ok until their kid is four or five years old... and then they'll just continue using it because that's what they've always used.
I love how you are doing all the gun lock reviews lately. These videos are really beneficial to everyone so that the design flaws can be addressed or avoided by getting better products. Better the lock picking community to point these issues out rather than be the victim of theft.
Thanks... this series is aimed directly at the parents who rely on these locks to secure guns from children. No one else seems to be providing this education, and the consequences of failure are unthinkable.

Those metal rods are almost certainly not tungsten carbide, a quick test with a magnet would settle the question though, because tungsten is not magnetic. Tungsten is also very heavy compared to the same size steel part. Tungsten is a brittle metal that's not much good for structural parts. Where it works well is in drill or cut resistant plates because it's much harder than most drill bits, or hacksaw and file teeth. I assume the rods that are supposed to be in the plastic pins are the part where the tungsten is supposed to be. At least that would make the pins hard to cut with something like wire cutters, though in something like this with a plastic body it's had to see that making much difference.
Tungsten is not a brittle metal, however Tungsten Carbide is a ceramic, and ceramics are brittle. Some grades of Tungsten Carbide are tougher than others.
@@mojaveartifacthunters339 Often tungsten carbide is marketed as tungsten though, look at tungsten rings, so many reports online of people dropping them and them shattering. Edit: Just realized your comment was 3 years old

I'm not into judging, (you've done this more eloquently then I can). My trigger locks are only a small part of my security as I'm sure yours are as well. I also have safes and secured rooms with the safes concealed within, (poorly concealed I'll admit). I also secure my ammo separately, (although less securely then the guns). Of course my highest level of security is education and opportunity to go shooting to any of my children and their friend's, assuming they have permission from their parents. Keep up the amazing videos and I sincerely wish you'd endorse a lock, (I'd buy about 12-15 of them) although you moniker suggests that will never happen.

This is Child Lock. If you have anyone in your house that would pick up a hammer and break your lock to use the gun, you have bigger problem on your hands and probability is that you would either sell your guns, or buy a real gun safe. If your "child" wanted to take that gun, break the lock, load the gun, and shoot it chances are that they need some education about guns, better parents or psychiatrist. I am 25yrs old now, and i know that younger me wouldn't dare, even if i had a key, to remove that lock. Edit: Anyway, i like the video, just found about your channel, and i love guns, i love locks and lock-picking, so this is great combination.
Welcome to the channel. I agree with much of what you say. Most of my concern is with surreptitious entry by curious adolescents... this lock would not prevent that IMO.
@@ghostzart hitting things with siblings? I suppose that time I pushed one of my brothers into the other counts, but I don't know that I did anything else like that...
Because of the relative ease of defeating many of the weapon security systems out there, I find that using a combination of devices gives me the best security when I do not have direct control of my firearms. I use a cable lock on each weapon, each weapon is stored in a security cabinet which I have fitted into a closet lined with several layers of sheet-rock for fire protection, a steel security cable runs through the back wall of the closet into the back of the cabinet and through each firearm and is secured with a padlock, the security cabinet door has a standard lock but the closet door was replaced with a steel fire door I bought for a really low price at auction, and of course a home security system by a major provider secures the room and, indeed, the rest of the house. I did all this a little bit at a time over the course of several months and I am very pleased with the results. The cabinet is bolted to the concrete basement floor and is far more secure now than firearms safe and hundreds of dollars less expensive. I have less than $300 in this setup, excluding the monitored security system.
Thank you for this information. I'm sure a heavy hammer or a basic hacksaw, could get an ordinary thief to access the gun, but, you are and absolute genius, I mean that, or at least an absolute master at your honest trade, and you knew that already. You are awesome, an absolute legend. God bless you sir.
Tungsten carbide is pretty hard as metals go, so if you can file it, the metal probably isn't tungsten carbide. Additionally It is used as the electrode in TIG (tungsten inert gas) welders, if you have a welding friend and the pieces of metal are big enough they may be able to at least give an opinion.
@@lockpickinglawyer Could just be spit balling but I really think those spokes you called plastic are actually the tungsten carbide, based on the placement in the product picture as well as the plastic sleeve often put over nails (and screws for that matter)
When using that lock with some handguns it has additional attachments to that can stop the cylinder of a revolver from turning and the slide of a semi auto (I think it's sized for a 1911 but I was able to get it to attach to my PSA Dagger as well) from reciprocating.
It's best to not place the movable posts on the finger side of the Trigger, better to keep them on the perimeter, and behind the Tirgger . With posts in front of the trigger, a hard pull on the lock body can sometimes operate the trigger and discharge the firearm. This has been an issue with some of the other types of locks siminlar to those others you showed in this video.
Oh god I remember this lock when I was a kid. A large flat blade screwdriver and some torque allowed me to break those thin metal pins and gain access to the trigger.
Can you tell what variant it is? At first I thought it was a standard 7.62x39 AK-47, but then I began doubting myself and wondering if it were perhaps an AK-74M. It's obviously not an AK-74SU due to the size (although I could be wrong due to the folding stock), or an AKMS due to the upper receiver's machining, but I'm still curious.
Hello my good friend I have been watching your videos on the Xbox for the past week or so I had to come over here on my tablet and subscribe to your channel I've probably watched at least a hundred of your videos LOL me and my nephew thanks for all the coolest man that's for sure and I'm glad to be a part of your channel Keep On Keepin On my good friend and we will see you on another video thanks a Tone 👍👍👍👍👊👊👊👊
Hey LPL, i know its not lock related but i was curious how many guns you have? Each of these gun lock videos it seems like there is a different gun xD Love your work btw thanks for all the content!
Take a look at the inside of the plastic and look for any markings. From here, it looks like cheap ol ABS plastic but the markings would tell us if it was more robust plastic like glass reinforced nylon, etc would tell us if the plastic would be more shock resistant or just cheap plastic you cold destroy with a simple hammer. List of codes: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recycling_codes
Is it possible that the "tungsten carbide" was fully encased inside of those plastic battleship looking pins? I would have liked to see you cut through one
+Jack I'm pretty sure that's not the case... I'd feel the weight. Also, I checked them with magnets so there's no steel. It wouldn't make much sense anyway. TC is brittle. It would be a poor material to use in the pins.
@@MrSpirit99 TC is one of the hardest metals there is, a 9-9.5/10 thats close to diamonds, and can actually cut through some diamonds if u have a good situation, its also hard to cut and used for machining other metals and friction drilling so its decently tough, also very heat resistant
Growing up i never had the thought of "Oh I'm gonna mess around with dads guns" I was raised to understand how dangerous they were and the only gun left out of the safe was my dads pistol. Even now, if when im holding my gun, i could have the magazine out, the bolt taken out, i make sure to never point it at anything i don't want shot. Even when im cleaning my gun and i take off the barrel, i don't point the barrel at anything. This kind of safety is exactly what should be taught by parents. That guns are not toys.
All of these gun lock reviews are a very cool pro Second Amendment statement. It just puts the gun in the background as a simple intimate object that anyone might own, exactly how it should be presented in many cases, he knows what he’s doing. :-)
With that much plastic and so little metal, I really wouldn't worry about any tungsten carbide reinforcement on the lock. Looks like if you dropped it a few times either the plastic pins will snap or the entire lock itself would crack open...
The best way to keep a child safe from firearms is to teach them about safety and what to do around guns. The lock will most likely trigger their curiosity. We need to teach them from a young age the dangers of reckless firearm use, so they don’t seem that interesting to the kid anymore.
I would have been more likely to play with the gun when I was a kid if it had one of these on it. I would have wanted to see if I could pick the lock, just to see if I could. I knew where the guns were. I knew they were unlocked. I didn't bother with them.
I've been really liking the gun lock videos. But I'm suspecting this lock is only for child safety. I imagine an adult can pretty easily just break the lock of the gun.
The tungsten carbide rods are meant to prevent this lock from being sawn or dremeled open easily. I fully agree that their implementation looks very anaemic. However, the length of the rods means they won't come loose or melt out easily. If you actually do a saw test on this lock I think you may find that it's tougher than most people might expect. That is, if the carbide rods are glued in properly. Tungsten carbide is not cuttable by any regular tool, you cannot saw it, you cannot cut it with abrasive wheels. Carbide does however have a weakness we can take advantage of in this case, it's very brittle. After having sawn most of the plastic, a hammer should be able to snap the rods without too much trouble. Another method would be to use a steel disc on a dremel with diamond bonded on the surface (usually meant for stone carving) That is, if we were not going in through the lock.

@@ghostzart yeah but if one of the things you were hitting was a gun, then you are definitely doing it wrong
Because of the relative ease of defeating many of the weapon security systems out there, I find that using a combination of devices gives me the best security when I do not have direct control of my firearms. I use a cable lock on each weapon, each weapon is stored in a security cabinet which I have fitted into a closet lined with several layers of sheet-rock for fire protection, a steel security cable runs through the back wall of the closet into the back of the cabinet and through each firearm and is secured with a padlock, the security cabinet door has a standard lock but the closet door was replaced with a steel fire door I bought for a really low price at auction, and of course a home security system by a major provider secures the room and, indeed, the rest of the house. I did all this a little bit at a time over the course of several months and I am very pleased with the results. The cabinet is bolted to the concrete basement floor and is far more secure now than firearms safe and hundreds of dollars less expensive. I have less than $300 in this setup, excluding the monitored security system.
The fact you have several guns to slap these on makes me happy
@@spacecoyote6646 he has multiple comments talking about how he built the guns bruh
"AK-format rifle". I see you too are a man of culture.
Who else had absolutely no problem patiently waiting for him to undo those screws? I swear, for anyone else, I would have just skipped forward...
Thank you for this information.
I'm sure a heavy hammer or a basic hacksaw, could get an ordinary thief to access the gun, but, you are and absolute genius, I mean that, or at least an absolute master at your honest trade, and you knew that already.
You are awesome, an absolute legend. God bless you sir.
This is honestly kind of tragic, it seems like they spent DESIGNED a really good trigger lock and then just cheaped out on the parts and materials.
Everybody gangsta until the lockpickinglawyer has a ak
5:14 "we're gonna discover this together" I'm so entranced, clearly the words that stole Mrs. LPL's heart
Everybody gangster until your kids says loose on number one
Tungsten carbide they say... sounds like false advertising(im not a lawyer ).
Could be -- I don't know how to test it.
Tungsten carbide is pretty hard as metals go, so if you can file it, the metal probably isn't tungsten carbide. Additionally It is used as the electrode in TIG (tungsten inert gas) welders, if you have a welding friend and the pieces of metal are big enough they may be able to at least give an opinion.
Call NileRed
@@lockpickinglawyer Could just be spit balling but I really think those spokes you called plastic are actually the tungsten carbide, based on the placement in the product picture as well as the plastic sleeve often put over nails (and screws for that matter)
Ok. We need a collection video for your locks and guns.
If pooled into one video it would be like 5 mins long
Looks like you stocking up for the zombie Apocalypse with all these guns :)
oh nice pickin buddy
Don't take chances with Zombies!
Now i got it: "Child Guard" doesn't mean it's secured from kids, it just means it's so less secured, that even kids could bypass it.
imagine your child going into your gun room and just hearing “Nothing out of one, click out of two, nothing out of three”
yeah yeah, copycat, dont copy others comments
sonicj Polygon wow your so original it’s not like I’ve seen the same comment 15 times
Bernardo Sizifredo How am i copying another comment?
_ lucatron48 _ its not like i look at the comment section to see if my comment has been posted already before posting it
sonicj Polygon then maybe you should dumbass.
When using that lock with some handguns it has additional attachments to that can stop the cylinder of a revolver from turning and the slide of a semi auto (I think it's sized for a 1911 but I was able to get it to attach to my PSA Dagger as well) from reciprocating.
How cool would it be in an action movie, where the hero takes apart a ‚locked‘ Gun to fire single shots
It's best to not place the movable posts on the finger side of the Trigger, better to keep them on the perimeter, and behind the Tirgger . With posts in front of the trigger, a hard pull on the lock body can sometimes operate the trigger and discharge the firearm. This has been an issue with some of the other types of locks siminlar to those others you showed in this video.
Oh god I remember this lock when I was a kid. A large flat blade screwdriver and some torque allowed me to break those thin metal pins and gain access to the trigger.
Dude really
@@masonrains5010 Yeah really.
@@rgstever woah dangerous
Thanks to you I’ve learnt how to pick lock almost every bike lock in my county, you’re awesome!
"so were going to discover this together"
*heavy breathing intensifies*
On a side not, that is a gorgeous AK you have there. You have fantastic taste.
Can you tell what variant it is? At first I thought it was a standard 7.62x39 AK-47, but then I began doubting myself and wondering if it were perhaps an AK-74M. It's obviously not an AK-74SU due to the size (although I could be wrong due to the folding stock), or an AKMS due to the upper receiver's machining, but I'm still curious.
“Damn it Timmy lock picked my damn ak-47 gotta put him in the basement again.”
Lol
Hello my good friend I have been watching your videos on the Xbox for the past week or so I had to come over here on my tablet and subscribe to your channel I've probably watched at least a hundred of your videos LOL me and my nephew thanks for all the coolest man that's for sure and I'm glad to be a part of your channel Keep On Keepin On my good friend and we will see you on another video thanks a Tone 👍👍👍👍👊👊👊👊
LPL waiting to see your 50 caliber. lol Nice picking as usual.
LOL... fitting it on the desk would be hard... if I had one. :-(
@@lockpickinglawyer Not if its a 50ae Deagle or a 50.beowulf
this is the lockpicking lawyer and today we will be testing a minigun lock
Hey LPL, i know its not lock related but i was curious how many guns you have? Each of these gun lock videos it seems like there is a different gun xD Love your work btw thanks for all the content!
Take a look at the inside of the plastic and look for any markings. From here, it looks like cheap ol ABS plastic but the markings would tell us if it was more robust plastic like glass reinforced nylon, etc would tell us if the plastic would be more shock resistant or just cheap plastic you cold destroy with a simple hammer.
List of codes:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recycling_codes
If they were to cough up for glass-reinforced nylon they would certainly have the cash to get at least a cast zinc body though. Probably just ABS.
"Child Guard" If A child have access or can reach where you stow your gun, then that's your very first problem not the trigger lock.
No. your first problem is that you've raised a kid who can't be trusted around firearms
No. Your first problem is leaving your gun loaded
@@wjw8w8whhe that problem could be non-existend, because some children can load guns
why even own a gun in the first place?
@@williamg9857 because you don't trust the authorities to protect you from to your choice humans or animals.
You have quite an impressive firearms collection sir
Is it possible that the "tungsten carbide" was fully encased inside of those plastic battleship looking pins? I would have liked to see you cut through one
+Jack I'm pretty sure that's not the case... I'd feel the weight. Also, I checked them with magnets so there's no steel. It wouldn't make much sense anyway. TC is brittle. It would be a poor material to use in the pins.
TC is only dense, not hard. I see no use for it in a lock anyway.
@@MrSpirit99 TC is one of the hardest metals there is, a 9-9.5/10 thats close to diamonds, and can actually cut through some diamonds if u have a good situation, its also hard to cut and used for machining other metals and friction drilling so its decently tough, also very heat resistant
@@MrSpirit99 melting point of around 5000 F or 2800 C
Growing up i never had the thought of "Oh I'm gonna mess around with dads guns" I was raised to understand how dangerous they were and the only gun left out of the safe was my dads pistol. Even now, if when im holding my gun, i could have the magazine out, the bolt taken out, i make sure to never point it at anything i don't want shot. Even when im cleaning my gun and i take off the barrel, i don't point the barrel at anything. This kind of safety is exactly what should be taught by parents. That guns are not toys.
"Tungsten carbide reinforced"
Why? So it would break more easily?
It took him more time to open the lock with a screwdriver than a lockpick.
I was expecting that you would cut one of those customizable pegs in half to confirm or deny that it no longer has the metal core.
this lock looks like you could just bang it on the table and it would break so easy
All of these gun lock reviews are a very cool pro Second Amendment statement. It just puts the gun in the background as a simple intimate object that anyone might own, exactly how it should be presented in many cases, he knows what he’s doing. :-)
I'd REALLY like to see you open garbage like this via percussive pick.
That's a hammer.
I'm pretty sure the lock says "child guard" not "LPL guard"😂
anyone else love to binge watch these to fall asleep because its so relaxing :D also Great video
I use this lock on my rifle and the peg are metal in the center, they just covered the ends with plastic
The inside of the lock looks like a battleship game. G8-you sunk my battleship. LOL
''Lightweight - tungsten carbide reinforced'' Its not like tungsten is one of the heaviest metals
Good to know the lockpick lawyer has an AK LOL
Most child won't know how to pick a lock... Until, they watched this video.
Even when I was a child I knew how to use a hammer to break plastic.
With that much plastic and so little metal, I really wouldn't worry about any tungsten carbide reinforcement on the lock. Looks like if you dropped it a few times either the plastic pins will snap or the entire lock itself would crack open...
I have no idea how this would hold up to impact... some plastics can be surprising. But the pick resistance is certainly unimpressive.
My kids enjoy watching your channel.
A bolt lock is much more efficient
For those of you who don't know what sonic welding is. It's a method to weld plastic with sound waves at a high frequency
Are we just going to ignore the absolute arsenal this man has
he prottec
he attac
but most importantly
he will rob you back
The best way to keep a child safe from firearms is to teach them about safety and what to do around guns. The lock will most likely trigger their curiosity. We need to teach them from a young age the dangers of reckless firearm use, so they don’t seem that interesting to the kid anymore.
removing the entire firing mechanism and locking it up is still the best child proofing
I hate locks made of plastic. But i like the video haha
Thanks, and agreed.
Mr lock pickinglawer is strapped. Don’t pick anylocks to get into his house 😂😂😂
If you can't trust your kids around firearms then you are doing something wrong.
I would have been more likely to play with the gun when I was a kid if it had one of these on it. I would have wanted to see if I could pick the lock, just to see if I could. I knew where the guns were. I knew they were unlocked. I didn't bother with them.
I love the disdain when you threw the screw down.
+TallifTallonbrook Lol. Didn't even notice.
Instructions unclear, accidentally locked the trigger down and shot my son.
It is just to keep kids away from the gun though, so like, it’s not meant to be real security
Imma be real, looks like a kid could grab a hammer and smash it to pieces while dad's gone
I've been really liking the gun lock videos. But I'm suspecting this lock is only for child safety. I imagine an adult can pretty easily just break the lock of the gun.
I don't have much confidence that most gun locks would stop even a child.
Bobby Keyz its called a child lock for a reason. They're not calling it the "adult lock"
I only clicked on this for the Krinkov. Wish you’d do a video on your gun collection
I am a kid and thanks for showing me how to pick this.
*its just a joke*
The tungsten carbide rods are meant to prevent this lock from being sawn or dremeled open easily.
I fully agree that their implementation looks very anaemic.
However, the length of the rods means they won't come loose or melt out easily. If you actually do a saw test on this lock I think you may find that it's tougher than most people might expect. That is, if the carbide rods are glued in properly.
Tungsten carbide is not cuttable by any regular tool, you cannot saw it, you cannot cut it with abrasive wheels.
Carbide does however have a weakness we can take advantage of in this case, it's very brittle. After having sawn most of the plastic, a hammer should be able to snap the rods without too much trouble.
Another method would be to use a steel disc on a dremel with diamond bonded on the surface (usually meant for stone carving)
That is, if we were not going in through the lock.
I don’t think a child could pick that it’s a
“Child Guard”. Not “Extremely Safe Lock”.
Ah yes, because every child has access to lock picking tools.
Ikr
It does say Child lock so its not meant to keep theives out but mostly children out.
How many guns do you have?
Boris Kozo All of them.
thats an inappropriate question.
Almost enough.
Never enough
Its always just one more.
That thing would never keep a determined teenager out of it. Maybe a toddler but not a teenager
Almost a 9 minute video? Must be a good lock...
Edit: Nvm 2% of the video was actually picking the lock. 98% was explain how dookie it was...
that is the cleanest AK ive ever seen
Genuinely thought CS stands for Counter-Strike, plus what you have is an AK
that AK looks like it has never been fired, and came right out the box for the vid jajaja
Imagine walking into your room and you see your kid with a lock pick and here him mumbling “3 is binding... click out of 3... 4 is binding...”
Plastic doesn't go with firearms...
Plastic doesn't go with locks...
