I still remember the first time I heard a mate use the term muppet in the way you have here and I still get a kick out of it. Nice work on the SPP open - I too thought it’d be more of a pushover.
That lock looks identical to the ones for Kimber and Sig, so I suspect they could be the same manufacturer. They make a slightly different model for shotguns. Berreta and Regal look like they share the same manufacturer (slightly different housing around the plug). I didnt think about the logo or I would have sent you a different one. Ruger makes very good firearms for the price (entry/mid range), but outsources bare minimum cheap locks. The locks from all the manufacturers are about the same as that one. The absolute worst i have seen is the Allen Universal Trigger Lock. The Allen Universal Trigger lock arguable not even a lock to be honest, more like a plastic nut and screw, but its used by some major department stores. I think the stores and the company that makes that one are opening them selves up for tragedies and/or liabilities. Thats my rant, its a hot topic. Nice single pin picking there!
Great picking, NigBee! Yeah, these arent very pick resistant! Better than nothing though i guess and anything with an easily cutable cable like that is more a deterrent and should be used in conjunction with something else as well.
I agree these are sad locks, and most gun owners throw them away and use a safe. I have a large box full of these things. Nice picking.
I suck at raking too 😅 you must've been thinking about the German Luger pistol. Standard issue for the germans in both world wars. Great pick Nigel 🎉
Opens an open Nidge! you would be amazed what people consider secured!
