Gun locks are a fundamental tool in gun safety. What gun lock you use largely depends on your preference and lifestyle. For a handgun, one gun owner might decide a simple trigger lock is good enough, another might keep it in a gun safe, and yet another might use both. Thankfully, we have tons of Gunalert Gun Locks, GOSAFE Gun Locks, Lockdown Gun Locks, and more, so you can select the best type for your needs. For example, a cable gun lock uses a metal cable long enough to slide through the magazine well and chamber of most firearms, preventing the action from effectively working. On a long gun (rifle or shotgun), it blocks the bolt; on a pistol, it jams the slide; and on a revolver, it prevents the cylinder from closing.image

Are Cable Locks Bad for Your Gun?

No. A cable gun lock won't cause any noticeable wear and tear on your guns if you use it correctly. However, you may want to use an alternative gun lock like a gun safe for collectible or antique firearms. This is because modern guns are designed with gun locks in mind, while older pieces were not. This means they lock might not line up properly with sensitive components.

What Locking Device for Firearms Is Safest?

There's no single answer. The safest gun storage option is to store your guns unloaded in one area and then your ammo in another location, but instead of setting such rigid rules, most gun safety experts suggest developing a safe storage plan that works for you.

There are numerous firearm safety devices, but the main concerns generally involve accessibility. On one end, the concern is quick access to firearms in an emergency while on the other, preventing unauthorized access to firearms by children or prohibited persons.

If you live alone, you might be comfortable with a 3-digit combination lock or a biometric safe whereas if you have others living in your house, you might want something more complex like using both a gun trigger lock and a gun safe with a locking mechanism you program with your own combination.
