[1246] INEXCUSABLY Flawed Police Car Gun Lock (Patriot Products) 

You should see those "trigger locks" that come with many guns. Two pieces of plastic with a screw going through the center

Why has the police shotguns? It makes non lethal usage of the gun almost impossible like shooting in the leg?nope leg gone. Arm? Nope ripped off by the bullets . Shoulder? Nope probably shot him in the neck and heart also arm gone

having mixed feelings about this video it's true, it's an easy lock and all, but it's still hidden inside a police vehicle, witch you don't brake into just for a shotgun... but like you said, any confident picker will open almost any lock np, so what do you suggest for firearms ?? and without this video, hardly any1 would know it's such an easy lock...

Just imagining someone trying to capture him beside his guns he can just lockpick whatever u put him in

but magnets ............... are magic, right?

Why the fuck do they give cops in America pump action shotguns anyway? What the hell are they expecting to fight; Lickers?

It doesn't feel like he's even picking, he's just showing serious design flaws.

Where can I get a magnet like that? Umm asking for a friend 😂

A lot of the police gun rack locks seem to have the same issue with the unshielded magnetic lock -- I suppose they figure tha average person does not walk about with a rare earth magnet in their pocket. And as for the backup non-lock I get it that they want the officer to be able to immediately open it FAST with the first thing they have quickly at hand if the remote fails, but, still...

any other locks that can be open with a magnet??

Thank god this guy is a HUrunr and not a supervillain

But isn't everything about the police inexcusably flawed?

HOW MANY G*NS DOSE THIS MAN HAVE?

You should try a Santa Cruz gun lock

It’s also really rare for anyone to know how to lock pick

Why steal guns from the police when it's so easy to get one legally xD

Anyone gonna talk about how that shotguns can still be fired and loaded easily

What he showed may be why we've never heard of the company

I suppose the idea is that it's even easier to get a legitimately attained gun in the US anyway so why bother. :D

I endorse this product, ACAB

‘Okay keys, phone, wallet... shit I forgot my neodymium magnet!’

So the magnet unlocks the shotgun faster than the key? Cool, cool, good to know

Link to that magnet?

Not much patriotism has gone into the design of that lock..

Thanks for telling every criminal how to get a gun from their victims household to use against the owners their robbing from

It seems it would be more secure if it were Zip-tied

Good luck trying to go into a police car without getting shot.

I need to ask is that part of the lock mounted for access available to the public to be able to use the magnet

man you'd think with all the money that the police drain away from state and city budgets that they would have tech that wasnt so laughably bad.

Do any of these lame lock makers every try to sue him for defamation? Oh wait... Lock picking *lawyer*. (Seriously though, I'd love to hear about manufacturer reactions)

I just found this...would be really interesting to see what happens if you could get your hands on one of these eu.glock.com/en/Technology/GLOCK-Safety-lock

Is there a lock that cannot be broken. You show how each lock can be broken. So how do you protect yourself from thieves?

Can you review some of Snapsafe's products? Do they all use the same locking mechanism and backup key?

They don't lock guns in that part of the vehicle for 99.9% of them. And why lock the shotgun when the M5's are hanging unlocked 10" from the officers in front. Though if out of time Thermi,te Never fails and is insanely easy to get components for. Cut you off? Eh they can get a new engine. Just don't damage city or gvt. Property yo.

I feel like the real solution here should be that maybe the cops shouldn't have shotguns in their cars?

Anything that's associated with the word patriot is probably best to avoid

Don't worry it's loaded

2:10 very cool magnet

heh pp

Okay normally I would say the comments about you making this public knowledge are stupid - but is this tragic flaw really something you want to be advertising?

I have a question. You pointed out that you can unlock it with a magnet, but is the same true if it had power to it? For instance, if it was hooked up to the button and a power source would it still unlock? Did you test whether having power might engage some sort of fail-safe or not?

This guy is way more dangerous than CIA 😂😂

he just casually has a gun for every gun lock

Yeah bitch! Magnets!

LPL, trying putting a rubber (eraser) between the magnet and lock

TIL that there's a "standard handcuff key" which is ludicrously simple and insecure. Why don't all criminals carry one?

Wait a minute! I’ve watched this video once before a while ago probably half asleep but I just noticed he has a magnet with an off switch

Wait where’d he get the gun

Gun Lock Companies: "our locks are so strong and completely imposssible to pi-" Lpl in less than it took you to read this: "its open. This is unsafe, im worried of children."

Me:LPL ain’t violent he couldn’t hurt a fly LPL:pulls out shotgun

Saying a no longer used product is inexcusably flawed is the equivalent of say Hitler was wrong, we know the past is muddied with bad history. Don't stir the metaphorical pot my friend.

The only unattended parked police cars I know of are at police stations. You want to go there to steal a shotgun?

Thanks i was able to stole my dad gun and shoot him

But it is called "Patriot" and it has a cartoon flag and eagle on it. Surely that must count for something?

Those in the BDSM community would have keys to this

For US-A, gun lock is mean for "compliance" rather than real safety.

Gun safety laws is meant to protect the politician from the people.

A cheap ass product made by a company presenting itself as American as possible is the most American thing I have ever heard thus far. That said, this is so disappointing for gun safety that I’d sue them for as much as I can

"Hidden in the car" It's the button on the siren labeled "gun lock". I have both.

I think you may have confused this holder for a security device. Police cars are routinely left unlocked and running, their idea of security is different than yours.

Handcuff key. Rofl.

That’s not even a lock. That’s just a turntable switch to open the thing.

Damn that 870 is nice.

I've got the same lock, the stickers on mine say 'Big Sky Racks Inc. - Bozeman MT' - There must be one manufacturer and everyone slaps their own labels on.

He has too many guns and knows to pick every lock. I'm scared

Pretty sure the lock is more to stop it being grabbed and run off with. If there are cops in the car, you're not gonna have time to pick the lock. If the car is parked, and unattended, then its locked. If you can get into the locked police car, you can probably get around the gun lock... even breaking/cutting/unbolting the lock from the car itself.

once i had a wheelchair it was lockable with a magnet... it already reactet to the loudspeakers of a cellphone

What gun locks do you believe is the most difficult to bipass?

This is the third similar video on a similar lock.

I agree with you that it is inexcusable but you are compounding the problem putting people at risk by advertising this flaw. Not cool man.

WRONG ... this is not suppose to protect the gun, it's only suppose to be there to prevent someone from grabbing it quickly, including officers or to prevent it from coming loose in a crash. It's not suppose to stop people from bruteforce taking it. HOWEVER I strongly agree that lock shouldn't be THAT easy to open. My point here .. is that some random brat smashing police car's window, has no knowledge or skill to open one anyways, even if it's as simple as sticking a basic lockpick into it and turning it .. they just have no brain and those who know how to open locks (like LPL), will get it open regardless how difficult it is (unless it's some super secure device, which would never happen in real situation anyways).

So bad had to embarrass it twice.

Wow

Patriot Products basically takes a lot of existing law enforcement vehicle equipment and makes cheaper versions of it. I used to install these in cars all the time at a previous job. They're notoriously insecure, and you can trigger the electromagnetic lock with a 9-volt battery. The mechanical lock is literally just for a handcuff key (as you demonstrated).

I like'em all brother ! ! !

Cops are the dumbest people on earth. You expect them to have anything like a gun lock that was any good?

To be fair, both the hidden button and the lock that can easily be opened are nicely in line: this product is not meant to do more than prevent crime of opportunity. Anyone with the know-how or preparation can open it. As such, I'd rate it higher than other gun locks that aren't so honest about it. Does that qualify this lock to hold a shotgun? I don't know. I live in a place where we do not believe in selling guns in supermarkets or police needing shotguns (or leaving weapons in their cars) so I'm probably not the right person to judge this.

Yeah, he's gonna pop the lock, he always does. But was I the only one who noticed the safety is off?

featuring handcuff key and no paper clip? wtf

You of all people should know locks keep honest people out of stuff

Does it bother anyone else that the lock doesn't obscure or block the trigger at all?

most cops i've met tend to rely on the door lock of the car to cover for the dogshit quality of the gun lock. or they just aren't allowed to have a rifle/shotgun up front, and its in the trunk anyway

He says he used a lock pick but I just see a standard handcuff key.

The scary part is that this lock was approved by someone carrying a firearm.

my brain at 4 am: aaah yes give me all this knwoledge about locks

"Police pump action shotgun"... WTF??? What the hell do the police need a pump action shotgun for????

How many police shotguns have been stolen from police cars?

Wouldnt it be mounted on the bottom?

you know... maybe policecars in the US shouldnt contain firearms anymore until such a time that they can prove that they can adequately secure and handle them...

Did anyone touch on the fact that where the magnet is used would be bolted to the cage of the police car? You would not be able to get a magnet against that surface without first removing the entire lock from the car. Thoughts?

How have departments not seen this and gone with something a bit more expensi- oh yea that whole "defunding the police will help reduce police violence" bullshit. You need more funding for better training and equipment. Better training and better equipment is the ONLY answer to reducing police violence. These types of locks are in pretty much every cop car. Any criminal daring enough can just smash the window out, swipe a magnet on the lock, grab the shotgun, and run off all within 10 seconds of the window breaking. Like you, I find this INCREDIBLY inexcusable. People should start going around to departments and demonstrating just how unsafe these are by asking if they can, under police supervision, demonstrate how easy it is to steal a shotgun with just a magnet

The main defense for the gun is the fact that it is in a police vehicle, not the lock

Are you cold? Lol your knuckles and skin look a little pink and purple.

I reckon you could activate that solenoid just using a 9v battery.

whose carrying hand cuff keys?

That magnet is by far the best part of this video, super neat.

Man, pretty furniture for a police magnum.

I’m not a cop and i have a handcuff key in my house and another on my actual keys. I also have handcuffs cuz u honestly never know when a moment will come when u may need them. See videos all the time where people would be in a safer position if they could bind a criminal. Anyways them allowing these keys to undo the lock defeats the purpose of the lock. If I’m a criminal with a handcuff key, not only did i just get out these handcuffs, but i also have their shotgun now...

-patr +id

Would have been cool if you switched the magnet and said “there’s a key, a switch, and I brought my own switch”
