The fact that you actually had to employ lock picking skills rather than just sticking a piece of metal in there and wiggling it around makes it superior to other gun locks you've featured.
@@kilgarragh Yeah, but if you view it from the position that gun locks are primarily to prevent accidental discharge (e.g., kids playing with it) rather than determined theft, then this actually looks like quite a good one. If it needs a real lockpick and some skill to get it out, then it's something that virtually no child or curious idiot is going to be able to remove.
While the other locks have the security of glorified transport tags (in some countries it's required your non-carry firearms have these tags to disable them when carrying them say to the range)- which I believe is their actual initial purpose -but then tried to advertise them as proper locks hoping for more sales. I would trust this lock to keep a bedside gun safe, though of course it's no replacement to a safe and educating the people you live with on gun safety.
I gotta say, this is one of those few gun locks I've seen where the people who designed it actually understood firearms. Blocks the barrel, locks the action closed, and once you unlock it, it's quick to ready. Actually, it's really damn clever. Get a more reliable lock on the end, and I could see this being a suitable redundant lock for guns already in safes or gun cabinets.

That seems like a pretty good gun lock. The lock itself isn't really supposed to keep people from stealing the whole gun, but it makes it pretty much impossible for a kid to accidently fire it and if someone breaks into your house and finds the gun while your home, it will delay them long enough that they almost certainly be unable to use it on you.
Yeah, I think it's a great idea to immobilise the slide and barrel rather than just block the trigger. Maybe someone could utilise the idea but use a better lock for a bit more security?
did you not watch the video in which he scolds the device for being easily defeated? this device isnt so that you can leave it in a room with someone for hours and them not use it. it is so that you dont accidentally shoot it, or leave it on the counter for 5 minutes and a kid uses it, or so that if someone break in they dont see it and use it... etc. have you ever read about how effective just a sign in the yard with a picture of a camera on it and the name of a security company is? even if the service is not active?
Yes, I commented on a video and did in fact watch all of it. Maybe it's more for gun safety and not designed for gun security but maybe the idea can be utilised further I'm sure.
I had high hopes for this lock but as it turns out my 5 year old is a master lock picker and managed to take it off when I wasn't looking and shot himself in the leg. 3/5 Stars

Lol, I started watching this channel like 2 days ago and I got to this video and see my comment that I posted a year ago... Seems like I forgot about this channel or something.
It's worth noting that your 1911 has an external extractor, so this is safe, but 1911s with internal extractors can be damaged by dropping a steel dummy cartridge into the chamber and allowing the extractor to snap over the rim.
99% of snap caps that are made are either aluminum rimmed or plastic,or metal bodied with aluminum rim. Also,if you wanna be technical,dropping the slide on an empty chamber will always do more damage to the locking lugs then the so called steel case to the extractor.
What is the reason that an external extractor is not susceptible to this damage? Is it the nature of its being external, or just that guns made with external extractors are generally made with stronger parts?
@@DouglasGross6022 The external extractor is essentially held in by tension, and can be designed to be slightly more robust due to not being space constrained (mostly). While an internal extractor is usually held by a couple of pins and a spring and the extractor has to be built to a certain spec in order to accomodate the body of the pistol so there's only so much metal to abuse. I assume repeated abuse of metal on metal contact of an internal extractor over a dummy bullet will eventually wear out or damage those springs and pins.
Excellent video and very informative. I appreciate you always making really good quality material and can appreciate the lovely 1911. If I may make one small comment, I am sure someone below may have already said it, but I recommend putting the locking "bullet" into the magazine and then racking it into the chamber to reduce stress on the extractor. 1911 extractors typically do not like to jump over the rim of the cartridge. Outside of that, phenomenal video and good rating on the lock. Thank you
Great job. You´ve got skills. I think it´s not meant to be "THAT" safe anyway. The average kid will not know how to lock pick it. And probably if your kid knows how to lock pick it, he is smart enough not to play with a real gun. Nice video!
If you do use this lock, you may want to load it into a magazine and cycle the action to get that dummy round into the chamber. Loading it as LPL did can damage your extractor. It won’t happen from doing it a few times, but if you are doing it often, you may get some failures to extract
Understood but, Look up, Cocked and Locked, Single Action Pistols". About 4 hours ago I did quite a bit of reading on that. Sorry I can't be more specific (closed the tab) but, it's not as scary as you think. It appears to actually be the safest way to carry a SAW. Be safe out there.
If they hacksawed the end off, could they get rid of the ejector that way? i think you'd just have it stuck there unless you could somehow unthread it without anything to hold onto.
Seems too easy... maybe you can't extract the round, because the bar is still locked? Just theorizing, I'm not about to buy/break one to find out. Enjoyed your video, by the way!
I would be torn if I had one like to to carry; love to have it for all the practical purposes, but would not get out of the car if it even looked like rain or anything else! My EDC 1911 has the finish of an old truck, so I don't have too much to worry about!
Seeing him struggle with that rotating bit got me wondering: if one were to somehow make a functioning lock with a free spinning core, would that prevent a thief from picking the lock by robbing them of the power to tension? Or is it possible to pick a lock without tensioning it?
the best attempt at something like that ive seen is a round open keyway which basically gives you nowhere to tension it but a bit of creativity and its not that hard
Have you picked one of those key-safe locks the real estate people use to hold house keys? I have a number-combo one that slides open on the side. It seems pretty pick-resistant.
Great vid and interesting lock. Every time I go to the gun stores I just shack my head at their offerings. The strange thing is the salespeople seem to know they're all junk too, yet they still push them. Very nice 1911 as well.
Thanks. I wouldn't fault the gun store clerks... if there were any good options, I suspect they would carry some. But therereally are not many (any?) out there.
You have to remember this is to stop kids accidentally shooting themselves, not to stop kids using the gun intentionally so for its purpose, I think it does a great job
I like this one. The way it is applied. Not to worried about kids picking dimple locks and the tensioning seems very difficult. One spool would keep me out, lol. Never liked just the trigger guards. I use a cable on my hand gun and nothing on my rifles, all the ammo is locked up.
Hey, man! Just found your channel! you've got some sweet videos, keep it up. I usually don't show my support like this, but I enjoyed your vid. Have a like
I got this recommended to me, because apparently I'd never seen it back in the day. It's interesting too since this lock seems to be both a better design and more secure than the vast majority of gun locks I've seen.
I could see my kid in the future stumbling across this channel. Then I hear him 1 in a bind, 2 in a bind. I come in the room. Damn you lock picking lawyer!
First: I really enjoy your videos, even though I don´t pick locks and don´t plan to do it. But they are well made and very relaxing; especially your slow and calm voice :) Second: I have one question regarding your generell method of lock-picking: don´t you think the fact that you are able to see the key before picking the lock makes the whole lock-picking process easier than in a "real world" scenario? in this particular case you knew - as far as I understood - that you have to use a "dimple"-pick. normally, the lock-picker would not have this kind of information, right? or are you able to get this crucial information by just looking at the lock itself (without seeing the key before)? Thanks in advance!
You can put a blank cartridge in the magazine. After you unlock the lock leave it in the barrel, rack the slide and then shoot the lock as the projectile!
The fact that you can’t just hit it to open combined with the tensioning difficulty, and the designers clearly understanding how a gun lock should work. Makes me think this would actually be sufficient in most situations.
"...this is head over heals better than 95% of gun locks on the market today." This is the Best Endorsement any Lock has received so far from this channel EVER.
Good Job picking the lock.I think this is more of a safety lock rather than a security lock. Its meant to keep stuff out of the chamber and barrel so if you see this lock on your gun, you know immediately that the gun (is for the most part) empty and "safe". Something along the lines of a chamber flag. This would be useful say if you transported your gun around a lot. Like for competition/sales. You'd keep it locked up in a proper carry case with a decent lock. When you get to location, you don't have to worry so much about whether the gun is empty or not. You're pretty much ensured that there's nothing in the barrel other than your lock. The benefit is that you'd still be able to cycle the gun and demonstrate its operation but without the risk of ever having a round in the chamber.
I agree with much of what you said... though I'm not sure I see the difference between safety and security when it comes to the single most important job of these locks: keeping them from being fired by curious adolescents who may gain access to them.
Well Sir, what I meant by security vs safety, is security in the terms of deterring someone from trying to steal the gun. Safety in the sense that I'd treat this more as a chamber flag with a lock. Something to ensure the gun is empty, rather than something to ensure no one plays with the gun.You could also use this gun lock as a means of practicing dry firing drills, reloading drills, drawing drills with your actual carry gun rather than a dummy. And you'd be able to rest a bit easier knowing that with the lock in place, there is no way to chamber a bullet. Even if you somehow accidently left a round in one of your practice magazines. I think there's a good reason they put in a rubber "primer" on the end of that lock. Really opens up the possibilities with this lock.
Watching you drop the slide on that chambered "round" makes me wince. Unneeded wear on the extractor and it will chew the heck out of the rim of that "round."
I really love the creativity behind this lock. If they strengthened the core then I could see this being amazing. Many gun locks can easily be cut or pried off, but if this design was optimized it could minimize that threat.
I was a locksmith for 10yrs and give you mad props I’ve never seen anyone pick like every lock known to man as quick as you do ,Your a boss . Do you have your own company ?
Interesting application for lock. Quite strange for a German (or should I say non-US) person to watch someone handling with his firearm on camera. I really hope that all wise people owning guns know how to properly secure their weapons.
For instance, when I had just one pistol, I used a simple barrel lock (the loop thing that goes through the barrel, out the ejection port and locks back to itself) Now that I have numerous firearms, I have a Browning Gold series safe (not the highest end one, but it does its job)
Nothing. You just hear the firing pin click, and the rubber is there to prevent damage to it. Then of course you can't rack the slide anymore until you get the lock out.
Gotta be honest I read this question simply wondering if you don't understand that the propellant is in the cartridge of the bullet and the gun itself can't just fire whatever you put in the chamber.
ShikamaruXT It's a catch 22 though, the safer your gun is the less safe you are against home invaders. I guess that's why this lock leans towards the "quick release" side.
It’s just my opinion here... seems to me the best way to keep kids from playing with guns is two fold. First, have and use a proper gun safe or heavy duty locking cabinet. Second, teach your child about guns and gun safety! Understanding that a gun can kill is a very good deterrent for curious tikes. Nothing can replace good parenting

Seeing him struggle with that rotating bit got me wondering: if one were to somehow make a functioning lock with a free spinning core, would that prevent a thief from picking the lock by robbing them of the power to tension? Or is it possible to pick a lock without tensioning it?
But how would you turn the key in such a lock? It would just slip through, as well.
@@kcrtxbw.4349 maybe the core is located at the end of such a keyway. Making it difficult to put a wrench in while the actual lock is deep below
the best attempt at something like that ive seen is a round open keyway which basically gives you nowhere to tension it but a bit of creativity and its not that hard
Me watching LPL when the Wife asks if I need something from the store. "Yeah, get me some padlocks!"
I love that you are into gun stuff as well. Makes you even that more of a bad ass content creator. Keep up the great work!!!!!!
Really nice selection of a beautiful 1911. Great video.
Have you picked one of those key-safe locks the real estate people use to hold house keys?
I have a number-combo one that slides open on the side. It seems pretty pick-resistant.
This is a pretty decent lock, if your kids aren’t master locksmiths.
Much better than the gun lock he opened by jamming a twig into the keyhole!
That's honestly a genius lock design.
I don’t know whats better, The fact he picked the lock that quick, The fact he has that beautiful pistol, or the video quality and effort.
Oh wow. That actually is one of the best pistol locks featured on the channel! Can't just jiggle it open, and harder to tension.
Great vid and interesting lock. Every time I go to the gun stores I just shack my head at their offerings. The strange thing is the salespeople seem to know they're all junk too, yet they still push them. Very nice 1911 as well.
Thanks. I wouldn't fault the gun store clerks... if there were any good options, I suspect they would carry some. But therereally are not many (any?) out there.
thats probably true. I kind of like the Zore X gun lock, but I haven't seen it in person or used it to know and it currently is only offered for 9mm.
They may be getting commission from selling such items
You have to remember this is to stop kids accidentally shooting themselves, not to stop kids using the gun intentionally so for its purpose, I think it does a great job
Much better than the gun lock he opened by jamming a twig into the keyhole!
I like this one. The way it is applied. Not to worried about kids picking dimple locks and the tensioning seems very difficult. One spool would keep me out, lol. Never liked just the trigger guards. I use a cable on my hand gun and nothing on my rifles, all the ammo is locked up.
It's not bad... it might be enough to keep some kids out. But that doesn't give me much comfort.
I think you overestimate the amount of people that can competently pick a lock, and would have a reason to beyond practice.
You should put your guns into a safe. It's the only responsible thing you can do.
combining this with a trigger lock and a locking case is a reasonable amount of security for a gun
the "better than 95% of all other gun locks" is a really good compliment coming from LPL
Hey, man! Just found your channel! you've got some sweet videos, keep it up. I usually don't show my support like this, but I enjoyed your vid. Have a like
Welcome to the channel, and thanks for the kind words -- they are much appreciated .
So this is how your character looks when u spend all the skill points in lock picking
Chosen skills: Lockpicking, Small Guns, Speech
We need your lock piking skills to free the aliens at area 51!!!
We would be eternally grateful
It's tomorrow.
this channel makes me not only want to get into picking locks but also to get into guns
I got this recommended to me, because apparently I'd never seen it back in the day. It's interesting too since this lock seems to be both a better design and more secure than the vast majority of gun locks I've seen.
3:27 why does he sound like a dentist?
I suppose the purpose is to prevent children from accidentally firing the gun, rather than security
That looks suspiciously like a match gun.
You a competition shooter on the DL?
I absolutely love how the very beginning of the video is like a continuation of the thumbnail. So clean.
I could see my kid in the future stumbling across this channel. Then I hear him 1 in a bind, 2 in a bind. I come in the room. Damn you lock picking lawyer!
Apparently I was the 1000th comment too. What do I win? Hahaha
First: I really enjoy your videos, even though I don´t pick locks and don´t plan to do it. But they are well made and very relaxing; especially your slow and calm voice :)
Second: I have one question regarding your generell method of lock-picking: don´t you think the fact that you are able to see the key before picking the lock makes the whole lock-picking process easier than in a "real world" scenario? in this particular case you knew - as far as I understood - that you have to use a "dimple"-pick. normally, the lock-picker would not have this kind of information, right? or are you able to get this crucial information by just looking at the lock itself (without seeing the key before)?
Thanks in advance!
LpL legal advicd: "Stay strapped or get clapped"
nice picking buddy never seen that type of lock b4😊👍😊
Thanks... this one was new for me as well.
You can put a blank cartridge in the magazine. After you unlock the lock leave it in the barrel, rack the slide and then shoot the lock as the projectile!
The fact that you can’t just hit it to open combined with the tensioning difficulty, and the designers clearly understanding how a gun lock should work. Makes me think this would actually be sufficient in most situations.
"...this is head over heals better than 95% of gun locks on the market today."
This is the Best Endorsement any Lock has received so far from this channel EVER.
Good Job picking the lock.I think this is more of a safety lock rather than a security lock. Its meant to keep stuff out of the chamber and barrel so if you see this lock on your gun, you know immediately that the gun (is for the most part) empty and "safe". Something along the lines of a chamber flag. This would be useful say if you transported your gun around a lot. Like for competition/sales. You'd keep it locked up in a proper carry case with a decent lock. When you get to location, you don't have to worry so much about whether the gun is empty or not. You're pretty much ensured that there's nothing in the barrel other than your lock. The benefit is that you'd still be able to cycle the gun and demonstrate its operation but without the risk of ever having a round in the chamber.
I agree with much of what you said... though I'm not sure I see the difference between safety and security when it comes to the single most important job of these locks: keeping them from being fired by curious adolescents who may gain access to them.
Well Sir, what I meant by security vs safety, is security in the terms of deterring someone from trying to steal the gun. Safety in the sense that I'd treat this more as a chamber flag with a lock. Something to ensure the gun is empty, rather than something to ensure no one plays with the gun.You could also use this gun lock as a means of practicing dry firing drills, reloading drills, drawing drills with your actual carry gun rather than a dummy. And you'd be able to rest a bit easier knowing that with the lock in place, there is no way to chamber a bullet. Even if you somehow accidently left a round in one of your practice magazines. I think there's a good reason they put in a rubber "primer" on the end of that lock. Really opens up the possibilities with this lock.
what is security but a form of safety?
have not seen that lock. interesting. 10 second pick. a better cylinder would make this a great lock.
It was new to me also. I, too, would like to see a larger/more secure core hanging off the end.
Love that the man tapes over the serial number like a pro.
Watching you drop the slide on that chambered "round" makes me wince. Unneeded wear on the extractor and it will chew the heck out of the rim of that "round."
jeez a lawyer that can pick locks AND owns guns ur wife must be proud xD
nice 1911 springfield btw :3
He literally has 3 ways of robbing someone, one of them is even considered legal! xD
Does it keep “FRIENDS” and “PETS” away from my guns too?
@Abdul Rahman no, his dog has a high iq and thumbs
@Abdul Rahman Probably has a German Shepherd who got its paws on a certain book struggles...
@Abdul Rahman na
1:16 *INSERTION IN PROGRESS STAND BY*
Kinda sad these arent made anymore, considering how clean it looks while also being handy for basic safety
I really love the creativity behind this lock. If they strengthened the core then I could see this being amazing. Many gun locks can easily be cut or pried off, but if this design was optimized it could minimize that threat.
I have a gun in my house and my dad would show it to me when i was a kid he taught me not to play with it and never hid it from me
Damn, I like the idea of this lock... too bad it's seems to be discontinued ...
Agreed. Better than most.
Imagine a robber comes into your house and you say hold on let me just unlock my gun
I was a locksmith for 10yrs and give you mad props I’ve never seen anyone pick like every lock known to man as quick as you do ,Your a boss . Do you have your own company ?
That's a pretty ingenious design.
Only in America will someone feature a gun so casually for a lock-picking session.
Well done my good sir :-)
Gun locks makeup the bricks of the landfills in my aria.
Interesting application for lock. Quite strange for a German (or should I say non-US) person to watch someone handling with his firearm on camera. I really hope that all wise people owning guns know how to properly secure their weapons.
All responsible gun owners in the US take more measures than just a simple lock like this to secure their weapons.
Agreed, John.
For instance, when I had just one pistol, I used a simple barrel lock (the loop thing that goes through the barrel, out the ejection port and locks back to itself)
Now that I have numerous firearms, I have a Browning Gold series safe (not the highest end one, but it does its job)
i wonder why "responsible" gun owners then always make such a huge outcry whenever someone suggests to make such measures mandatory..
They don't. Irresponsible people do.
Actually a cool design. Most children are not going to be able to pick that open so I give it a thumbs up
This got recommended to me, I've been subbed to LPL for a LONG time now.
I see how he's evolved, but he hasn't changed from his ways.
British guy here:
What happens if you try to fire the end that looks like a bullet?
Nothing. You just hear the firing pin click, and the rubber is there to prevent damage to it. Then of course you can't rack the slide anymore until you get the lock out.
Gotta be honest I read this question simply wondering if you don't understand that the propellant is in the cartridge of the bullet and the gun itself can't just fire whatever you put in the chamber.
@@gizmogremlin1872 aw :(
Safest way to store your gun: in a gun safe.
Agreed.
ShikamaruXT It's a catch 22 though, the safer your gun is the less safe you are against home invaders. I guess that's why this lock leans towards the "quick release" side.
We don't have home invaders in germany ;)
ShikamaruXT or freedom! Haha!
In your holster.
Imagine this guy goes to jail and the guard just hears “1 is binding, click out of 2”
Ahh... A Para-Ordnance a P14-45 .45 ACP pistol. My favorite.
LPL is protecting your rights in the courtroom, in the security department, and on the battlefield
"3 Second Gun Lock" more like "3-Second-pickable Gun Lock"
agh! but a stressed magazine spring is the number one cause of jaaammmsss!
When you had 3 second lock I thought that meant that’s how fast you picked it
Same
This company needs to redesign this lock. I really like the simplicity of it, and want to get one of these.
It’s just my opinion here... seems to me the best way to keep kids from playing with guns is two fold. First, have and use a proper gun safe or heavy duty locking cabinet. Second, teach your child about guns and gun safety! Understanding that a gun can kill is a very good deterrent for curious tikes. Nothing can replace good parenting
