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

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
