How do cable locks work?

Cable Lock

Make your home safer by using a cable lock on your gun. This is a product that is typically made of vinyl-covered wire cables that you insert through the gun barrel or chamber. This inexpensive gun safety product, which can be purchased for about $20, blocks the cartridge and prevents it from moving into place to be fired. One benefit to using a cable lock is that some models have to be unloaded in order to put the cable on, which gives another level of security. You can opt for a universal style that will fit any gun, or select one that is made only for your specific type of design. The lock can be opened by a key or combination lock. For added safety, purchase a cable lock that has a tamper-resistant feature. If you have several guns, you can buy one cable gun lock that is extra long and can inserted through a few at once.
