Who is the "they" that should pay to make them and them provide them for free?

Perhaps this is an opening for you to make them and provide them for free?    :dunno:

I think most Mfg's are sending out gun locks with new purchases now days...And if not I have seen where Police Depts offered them at no cost

I've been offered hand fulls at gun shops before.  They laughed that past customers would just leave them behind when they bought a gun.  This was a dozen or more years ago though

Those are nice little mini cable locks.  I like them better than the trigger locks since if I forget the combo or key I can still cut it.   :chuckle:

I have these now on the 2 guns I don't have in the gun safe:

http://www.amazon.com/Pro-Lok-Trigger-Lock-Keyed-Diff/dp/B002E6UZQW

When I bought them, before I put them on the guns, I gave them to the kids without the keys and told them that if they figured out how to open them, I'd give them $10.  I have VERY intelligent kids and after an hour, they all gave up.  I can open my trigger lock on my shotgun or pistol in the dark, half awake, with no key, in under 2 seconds with these.  Expensive for what they are but worth every penny
