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.
@@grahamlopez6202 what the hell are you talking about? This looks like it could be a krinkov, because those are the types of AK's that usually have that type of sight. And the picitany rail section is a pretty solid aftermarket addon. I'll take "random dipshit who doesn't know jack shit about AK's" for 500 Alex.
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.
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 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.
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.
What I like most about these gun lock videos is that, not only do you understand locks really well, but you also understand guns really well. It provides an amazing perspective
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.
"so were gonna discover this together" 5:20 dang the amount of fear i got when he said that was real. Like when my dad asked if my room was clean and for whatever reason i was like yeaaa its clean and hes like oh really, lets go discover this together. fml
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
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.
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!
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.
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 👍👍👍👍👊👊👊👊
Imagine trying to break into this guy's house. firstly, he would have state of the art locks, and secondly, he owns a huge collection of firearms that he uses the gun locks on. Basically, you're screwed from the start
You try to break into his house and you finally pick open the door but when you open it... there just doors 1200 doors with a different lock on each you must pick every single door to get in
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
i'm jealous of what seems to be a large gun collection. i wonder if you kept with the childhood lock hobby because a couple picks are easier than keeping track of all the trigger lock keys?
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.
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
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.
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...
Altought as you said the gun still can be discharged whit a triggerguard, theres still one advantage(or disadvantage for some ppl) of this lock compared to other triggerguards. As i see, because of its sheer size, you cannot insert a magazine to the gun either.
You're concluding the newer pins don't contain metal inserts because they can't be seen, but perhaps they are just completely covered by plastic, unlike the old ones?
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 think this lock should be a last resort type lock for your children if they somehow managed to open up a safe with your guns in it I would not attach this to my guns and leave them out in the open but if used with a safe I think they serve a pretty good purpose
That looks like a nice AKS74U clone. And with the AK, pattern rifle, you can chamber a round, lift up on the safety lever past the dust cover and send a round off. So no need for a lock there 🤣
and thats why locks like these are more of a legal means. meaning if you have it on, your not liable if anything goes wrong with the weapon firing off. "sir i had a LOCK on it. the person tampered with it."
T.L. and C.L. work for transport, but for storage, I’d use a Fort Knox brand safe. Much as I would like to rig the safe with a spring loaded boxing glove booby trap, life is not a Tex Avery style cartoon. I’ll just pay for a mirrored back upgrade in it instead.
Any child gun lock is better than no child gun lock on a firearm. As you demonstrated in your video, if a child can pick a lock, then they bypassed the whole purpose of the child guard gun lock. Best way to probably lock up your firearms is probably putting it into a locked gun vault which you would probably be able to lock pick; therefore, defeating the whole purpose of a a gun vault.
Hey, LPL, just a thought on this. If you configure the lock to depress the trigger, the hammer should just follow the bolt home, ie not enough energy there to fire the rifle. Might work, might not. Wouldn't prevent drop firing.
So as I have seen a lot of your videos and gotten out of a few tight spots with what I have learned watching you.thank you for that as a gun owner I would like to ask your personal opinion on how to properly lock secure or imobilize a 1911/ 45.cal pistol ? Thank you for your time and advice
Same here (.hu), people don't just own guns as naturally as owning a screwdriver. We don't go to a shooting range for weekend fun. And more interesting is that our house is still full of dangers for a child (at least from a parent's perspective) without even having guns...
The manufacturer instructions state clearly not to place any of the plastic posts in front of the trigger, the two you inserted should actually be placed in front of the trigger guard.
even tho that lock is plastic and picks pretty easy it's really only meant to stop children from screwing with it and I think it would do its job from 1-10 years old😂

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 use this lock on my rifle and the peg are metal in the center, they just covered the ends with plastic
Man has an AK-47 and can pick any locks on his way.
He should be feared.
The red posts are probably over molded and the packaging graphics just show the metal core inside of the red plastic posts.
that homemade ak is so beautiful. crazy
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.
Altought as you said the gun still can be discharged whit a triggerguard, theres still one advantage(or disadvantage for some ppl) of this lock compared to other triggerguards. As i see, because of its sheer size, you cannot insert a magazine to the gun either.
If anything the child guard has such a vibrant red colour, that a child will probably play with it
You're concluding the newer pins don't contain metal inserts because they can't be seen, but perhaps they are just completely covered by plastic, unlike the old ones?
THE GUN PROTECTION JESUS
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. :-)
There should be a database with all the locks and the successful ways to pick them
No
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 love how lockpickinglawyer just casually has a AK47
It’s quite a common rifle
woah they make locks that dont get fully bypassed by a little magnet? it truly is more childproof that many
I hate locks made of plastic. But i like the video haha
Thanks, and agreed.
imagine my shock when an adult can outclass a lock designed to keep toddlers locked out
Most child won't know how to pick a lock... Until, they watched this video.
Don't you just hate it when little Timmy steals the AK
LOL dammit Timmy put the AK back
A true trigger lock closes once and can't be opened again.
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...
I think this lock should be a last resort type lock for your children if they somehow managed to open up a safe with your guns in it I would not attach this to my guns and leave them out in the open but if used with a safe I think they serve a pretty good purpose
A good way to stop the quiet kids in the classroom
That looks like a nice AKS74U clone.
And with the AK, pattern rifle, you can chamber a round, lift up on the safety lever past the dust cover and send a round off. So no need for a lock there 🤣
Never heard complicated and ak 47 in the same sentence
its not ak 47
Instructions unclear, accidentally locked the trigger down and shot my son.
and thats why locks like these are more of a legal means.
meaning if you have it on, your not liable if anything goes wrong with the weapon firing off.
"sir i had a LOCK on it. the person tampered with it."
This guy has more guns than I have friends
Never break into his house
It is possible that those small pegs might have a metal core and are just covered to try and fend off rust
Lock picking lawyer stays strapped aint getting clapped hahaha
T.L. and C.L. work for transport, but for storage, I’d use a Fort Knox brand safe. Much as I would like to rig the safe with a spring loaded boxing glove booby trap, life is not a Tex Avery style cartoon. I’ll just pay for a mirrored back upgrade in it instead.
Lock picking Lawyer has a nice gun collection.
That AK is clean. Very nice
just happens to me that i stole a gun from the gun shop with this on , thanks for the tutorial buddy!
Any child gun lock is better than no child gun lock on a firearm. As you demonstrated in your video, if a child can pick a lock, then they bypassed the whole purpose of the child guard gun lock. Best way to probably lock up your firearms is probably putting it into a locked gun vault which you would probably be able to lock pick; therefore, defeating the whole purpose of a a gun vault.
Hey, LPL, just a thought on this. If you configure the lock to depress the trigger, the hammer should just follow the bolt home, ie not enough energy there to fire the rifle. Might work, might not. Wouldn't prevent drop firing.
Companies should send you their locks for testing.
Anything with a key looking like that wont be a problem to open even for an adolescent
Nice AK.
I wish I had bought one back when they were less expensive.
LockPickingLawyer just has an AK-47 on hand.
omg it hit me... there's literally no door closed for this guy. endless opportunity
[casually stops pumping kicks]
So um. Like. How many guns do you have? Can you do a gun tour?
My man has got the guns!
how long does this take for this man to open a kids bookstore lock, jesus
So as I have seen a lot of your videos and gotten out of a few tight spots with what I have learned watching you.thank you for that as a gun owner I would like to ask your personal opinion on how to properly lock secure or imobilize a 1911/ 45.cal pistol ? Thank you for your time and advice
When you live in the UK and wonder when was the last time you saw a real gun (not counting airport police ones)
I saw some police officer with an AR-15 or M4 in the Philippines once
not a single time in my entire life
People in the UK do have sporting rifles.
Same here (.hu), people don't just own guns as naturally as owning a screwdriver. We don't go to a shooting range for weekend fun. And more interesting is that our house is still full of dangers for a child (at least from a parent's perspective) without even having guns...
I wonder if anyone is ever gonna recognize your hands in person 😅 "hey arent you that lock picking lawyer? I love your videos great cuticles"
The manufacturer instructions state clearly not to place any of the plastic posts in front of the trigger, the two you inserted should actually be placed in front of the trigger guard.
he has some nice guns
has got as many guns as he does locks
even tho that lock is plastic and picks pretty easy it's really only meant to stop children from screwing with it and I think it would do its job from 1-10 years old😂
