My father in law lost the key to his years ago and has been able to use his firearm for well over a decade. Thanks to the content here and a couple paperclips I was able to pop the lock in under 30 seconds. Thank you sir!
i’ve watched all your newer videos, now i’m going through your older ones. i’ve never picked a lock, nor shot a gun, in my entire life, but i love your videos so much. they’re genuinely so entertaining.
I have the old Master version of that, and they are instantly defeated by twisting the sides in opposite directions with pliers or visegrips. Rotation disengages the teeth.
haha "the Club" I remember in the early 90's when every economy car was festooned proudly with "The Club". I didn't know they made padlocks, though I've seen their master style trigger locks. At some point you should also show how easy this style of trigger lock is to "bypass" or "shim" (really more of a prying) with a small screw driver or ice pick. Tools a lot of people usually just have within easy access of curious adolescents.
LOL... Ah, the good ol' days on Honda civics tooling around with aftermarket 14" rims, huge wings, and the ubiquitous red steering wheel lock! As for bypasses, I'm not sure that it's as easy as people make it out to be. When properly installed, bypassing is not a simple proposition.
Hi Harry, The Club steering wheel lock has fallen from favour, and rightly so. Car thieves quickly realised that with a firm tap with a hammer on the end of the sliding shaft, it would collapse the ratcheting pall, and the lock could be removed - in seconds. We tested various brands, and they all did the same. Regards, Brian.
Also they're a fairly gauche means of car security. Even if I owned a cheap auto I would not want the ugly club anywhere near my steering wheel, I'll let the unwashed masses have the club, no thank you.
I didn''t have too high expectations after hearing "copy of Master lock" :) Unfortunately this seems to have been up to my expectations. Yet, it should be better than nothing if one tries to keep the kids from handling them.
It’s used mostly to protect children’s , so it’s stile safe and practical :-) , now if it’s a real criminal I don’t think he will come with his own gun first 😂😂😂
OK been wondering since the master lock version.. Is the receiver side of the lock made with a soft metal/ spring steel, I remember a lock like this in my grandparents home (think it was on a tool chest) we just would pry it open (the receiver side would go past the groves in the lock with not much force) and push it back together and my grandpa was never the wiser
More than a few people have mentioned that to me... personally, I've found these hard to bypass when properly installed. Maybe I'll do some more experimenting.
Is it necessary for you to use the tension tool in order to rake the pins! I own several firearms and am very concerned with safety as due to the children I have in the house, but tensioning a lock I don’t feel would be something my child would think to do! Is it possible to rake without tensioning please!
Here in Belgium we are required to have a gun lock on the guns when transporting them to a shooting club, but it's just meant to keep someone from firing their gun immediately , picking it can take a bit of time so you can't use it straight away.
It seems that you pick these locks before hand to know what to do for the video, which is nice but it would be interesting to see you problem solve and find a solution. Also, would it be a lot harder to solve if you could not see the key before hand?
Assume that I've picked a lock at least once or twice before turning the camera on. The main thing that's done off camera tends to be experimenting with which tension tool works best, and how to pick without blocking the camera's view.
I would love to... the main impediment would be cost. The very best locks tend to be EXPENSIVE!!! This channel is a money-losing operation for me. That said, I'll probably feature some locks that I can't open (yet) sometime in the future.
Are you a picker and/or someone pretty knowledgeable about locks? I ask because I was under the impression that they used very cheap, easy to open, Chinese copies of the Zeiss cross lock.
very informative. but i don't think trigger locks are intended to fully secure a firearm. a criminal would just take it and worry about picking the lock much, much later. but they're still useful when children are in the house. someone with bad intentions can't immediately use it on you without having locking pickers or a key already in possession anyway.
It's slightly alarming that in a country with such a lot of firearms as the US that there are so many abysmally poor devices for securing them, and seemingly so few good gun security locks.
Very much so! Unfortunately the reality of many of these devices is that they're legislated into existence without any specification as to how good they are - but the uninformed sees them and thinks "well it's a lock, it must be secure" and that's that. The same reason people buy garbage padlocks with plastic cores for sheds and storage lockers. If these devices are required they should have some kind of UL rating, IMO. We have a similar issue in Canada where certain guns need to be kept in a "safe" but there's no specification or definition of what that is - so any sheet metal box will do, really.
@@holysirsalad That's terrible. Gun safes in my country have to be much more secure, and bolted to a structural wall. Makes me wonder if there's a huge gap in the market that LPL and Bosnian Bill might be able to exploit.
Those things are necessary to prevent kids and stupid family members from hurting themselves, not to defend an actual thief with necessary tools to pick a lock.
I think you are overestimated "curious adolescents". Given unlimited time frame any lock good or bad can be broken in, but for short time I don't think there is a lot of kids with your level of lock expertise. IE as long as a lock can survive basic level of tempering for reasonable amount of time done by amateur I'd say it is good enough for me. BTW I am not trying to defend bad locks or that lock specifically. It does look like cheap and shitty device no one should use.
Has there been a lock that you couldn't pick, or took yonks to pick? Also, remind me to never go near your home, with all those guns you have, I'm scared to just knock on your door (I'm not from the USA)...
As well as watching your channel I also subscribe to some firearms channels. One thing they do on those gun channels is show the camera that the gun and magazine are unloaded. Safety first.
Hi there mr LockPickingLawyer I am new to your videos and have watched about 10 so far and i really like them! I subbed after the second video and i remembered a video of a lock i saw some time ago which i thought was very interesting, namely this one: th-cam.com/video/1ey2SFHbZV8/w-d-xo.html Have you ever seen a lock like that before and if so have you managed to pick it? I also wonder if you have a video for beginners that explain all of the terms used in lockpicking and names of lock parts, tools and so on. And if not, could you maybe make one? :) Im looking forward to more videos! :)

"Worse than a Masterlock" - the ultimate condemnation of a lock.
LOL... true.
I think the real question here is this; are you at some point going to show us a lock that you feel comfortable using on your firearms?
zachariah liles He said somewhere that the best security is a good quality gun safe, but I think he has yet to recommend any actual locks.
I don't know of one that I like. HOWEVER, I do plan to make one using common tools and easily obtained materials in a future video.
I think I'd enjoy seeing something like that more than something you can buy off the shelf. And I don't think I'm alone on that sentiment either.
fucking dank I think I do remember him saying that. And that's true. But I'm going off of what he's picking in this "series".

How are you going to fit a 7 pin dimple core into a trigger lock?
My father in law lost the key to his years ago and has been able to use his firearm for well over a decade. Thanks to the content here and a couple paperclips I was able to pop the lock in under 30 seconds. Thank you sir!
……
Fun fact. Those locks can be pulled open by a reasonably strong person.
That's fun? More like sad.
Guess it depends on your definition of fun.😂 I had one with a broken key. If you can get your fingers between the shells, just pull it right apart.
i’ve watched all your newer videos, now i’m going through your older ones. i’ve never picked a lock, nor shot a gun, in my entire life, but i love your videos so much. they’re genuinely so entertaining.
Locks and Guns... starting to enjoy this channel. Found you through Bosnian Bill who I've been watching for quite awhile. Keep it up good sir!
Thanks... welcome to the channel.
I have the old Master version of that, and they are instantly defeated by twisting the sides in opposite directions with pliers or visegrips. Rotation disengages the teeth.
Shield was my first gun.
Good taste
"This is the GlockPickingLawyer and what I have for you today is a trigger lock called The Club."
Oh, the dreaded wafer. What on Earth are we going to do with you, wafer? Can we wish them out of existence? Heh.
It's really pretty silly... these things need to disappear!
haha "the Club" I remember in the early 90's when every economy car was festooned proudly with "The Club". I didn't know they made padlocks, though I've seen their master style trigger locks.

I broke my city rake in a Master padlock as I was watching this video, so I suppose I wouldn't be raking this lock open.
What are you doing with Master locks? :-P I'm embarrassed to be seen with you! ;-)
That's a Smith and Wesson. And you've had your six.
THANKS L.P.L.GREAT review. keep them comeing. 😎😎😎😎😎
Thanks
Should do a comparison of elcheapo locks vs zipties and what is more secure.
LOL, the battle for the bottom!
love the city rake. i know the bogata family is awesome, but the city is really useful also.
I like it quite a bit as well. I didn't like it that much in the beginning, but it has grown on me over time.
Check out that bitting as well! Not very impressive. Thanks for sharing, I'm liking your gun collection! Keep em rolling
Thanks -- more to come!
You can actually open these with a screwdriver if can get to the bar to shim it open.
I didn''t have too high expectations after hearing "copy of Master lock" :) Unfortunately this seems to have been up to my expectations. Yet, it should be better than nothing if one tries to keep the kids from handling them.
True all around, but "better than nothing" doesn't cut it IMO.
"Worse than the Master Lock original" has to be the most scathing criticism.
What about using a steel cable and normal padlock as a gun lock? Much like the cable gun locks, but with better parts.
That could work if you could get it to fit... with the understanding that those cables (particularly the small ones) are not so great.
It’s used mostly to protect children’s , so it’s stile safe and practical :-) , now if it’s a real criminal I don’t think he will come with his own gun first 😂😂😂

More than a few people have mentioned that to me... personally, I've found these hard to bypass when properly installed. Maybe I'll do some more experimenting.
What about combination code trigger locks? I have those on my firearms and i fee comfortable with those...
i have one similar to the Master Lock 94DSPT 3-Digit Combination Gun Lock
Never tried one.... I'll have to take a look.
Is there any lock you can't pick?
Could you lock a padlock with a thick enough shackle behind the trigger to stop it firing??
On some locks it may be possible... with this two piece plastic trigger it would be very ill-advised.
Please tell me you are no longer doing this sort of thing with a round in the mag :D
Speaking of the club lock are there any steering wheel locks you would recommend, thanks
No sane person claims trigger locks to be foolproof. They are what they are.
Amazing people who have never used one telling you that you are doing it wrong
Great review brother. Thanks for sharing it with us
The LPL has a large number of guns! What does he use to lock them?
Is it necessary for you to use the tension tool in order to rake the pins!

I don't know what's available in your country, but if the state of gun locks is similar, that law's effect is rendered ineffective IMO.
Very helpful. Thanks!

are there any locks you tried that you couldn't open?
Many... far too many to list. I think that the list could be cut down significantly with the dedication of time.
do you have any videos explaining why you couldn't unlock certain locks?
I dont see whats stopping someone from using the lock itself to pull the trigger.
Geez even me as a novice lock picker...woulda had that popped just as quick...cripes...and that's for a firearm!
Agreed... very disappointing.
Yep, wouldn't fly up here in Canada for protection whatsoever, our firearms laws are much tougher than those south of the 49th.
@@nbrowser It absolutely does, they sell these and similar versions everywhere
is there any locks you cant pick?
Oh yes! more than there are stars in the sky, I suspect.
im glad you showed me that
you can see through the gap between the slide and the body of the gun
Do a video with locks for different applications that are good? maybe? Good padlocks, motorcycle disc rotors, disc padlocks , etc.
I would love to... the main impediment would be cost. The very best locks tend to be EXPENSIVE!!! This channel is a money-losing operation for me. That said, I'll probably feature some locks that I can't open (yet) sometime in the future.
They exist? Locks that you *can't* open I mean... Video or it didn't happen. :P
I actually have an original the club, it has an amazing ziess lock
Are you a picker and/or someone pretty knowledgeable about locks? I ask because I was under the impression that they used very cheap, easy to open, Chinese copies of the Zeiss cross lock.
No I think on the OLD original one that I have the lock is actually pretty legit.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
Lock picking or picking lock?
You lost me.
LockPickingLawyer :o you replied to me
Thank you I’m now unlocking my dads glock
Blink and you'll miss it!
You seem rather well armed for lawyer, not saying that's a bad thing, just an observation.
Variety is the spice of life.

@Hell's favorite NPC #69OU812 . exe I'd be more concerned that the burglar got into the house and opened the lock shortly before I got home.

I just came here to see the next gun :P
LOL... more to come.
You can actually open it with a flathead screwdriver
Club started out a good company, but their quality has been heading downhill constantly. Their combo lock is even worse than this lock.
Has there been a lock that you couldn't pick, or took yonks to pick?
Also, remind me to never go near your home, with all those guns you have, I'm scared to just knock on your door (I'm not from the USA)...
There are many, many locks that I can't pick... too many to mention. Anyone who says otherwise is lying.
I've always thought if there was a lock that would make a picker sweat. Thanks for replying.
Well shot I guess I'm out of luck
The question is, can a 6 year old pick this?
So what is a good gun lock to keep children out of my guns?
I don't think there are any good locks anymore. Thanks LockPickingLawyer.
Geez! you think your lock is safe...
As well as watching your channel I also subscribe to some firearms channels. One thing they do on those gun channels is show the camera that the gun and magazine are unloaded. Safety first.

Funny you should mention that... I'm trying to get ahold of one right now.
Trigger locks in general are the worst design for Firearm safety. Avoid all of them.
So, your thing is that since you don't like trigger locks, you will do videos on how to "break them". Thank you for being part of the problem.
What the fuck is even the point of a trigger lock that can't go behind the trigger? Couldn't you just fire the gun pulling on the lock?
so wett
??
A product worse than the Master Lock equivilent? Wow, that's impressive, but not in a good way.
LOL, it takes work to be worse!
Is your gun clear and safe?....
🤦♂️🤦♂️
