Good point about being able to quickly and reliably use your GunVault with the finger print pattern access. I believe it to be a good solution, but I regularly practice opening it multiple times to develop “muscle memory”.

I use both a GunVault GVB in the bedroom for quick access security as well as a Console Vault lockbox securely fastened into the large center console of my truck. Both are excellent, highly recommend.

While I generally agree with your observation regarding educating children in gun safety I must point out that your assertion that the author was confusing facts and opinions is pretty much what you are doing as well.
YOU are presenting your opinions as fact…re read your post and you will see that. I don’t believe the author of the article was advocating a “forbidden fruit” scenario (in the sense you were presenting). Of course, the reason we lock up our guns is precisely BECAUSE unauthorized access is by definition “forbidden fruit”!

Actually Robert, your writing makes you sound like you’re not very intelligent. Probably not true…so some basic education may be a good idea.

The finger pattern (or backup keypad) require the user to remember a pattern or code. This can be a problem when woken in the middle of the night, especially when stressed by a potential lethal force encounter. The Rapid Response Safe from 360 Life Safety solves this issue and can store a long gun and vest (in your closet). And, no unauthorized access by children.

Hi John. On the surface the cable route seems easy to defeat but keep in mind the typical vehicle break-in doesn’t involve the use of bolt cutters and that is what would be needed to break the cable. Granted, if the thief knows about the vault/cable and that’s what they want they will most likely have the right tools, however, the only people who should know about your gun are those who absolutely have to know (spouse, partner, etc). All that said, if you’re looking for more security than the cable lock provides then the next level would be a permanent mounting option. Depending on your vehicle you could go with something large such as a TruckVault product or if your vehicle has a console then maybe something from Console Vault. If you have the space under a seat and some mechanical ability you can mount a traditional quick access safe by securing it to the vehicle floorboard.
Thanks
