It's a law in CT that ALL guns sold have to leave the store LOCKED

In Ohio the gun has to leave the store WITH a lock. I have quite a collected of unwanted/used locks myself. But lately I've been offering to have the clerk follow me out and carry the thing back into the store so I don't have to deal with it!

And, don't cha just feeeel safer, too? How come the .45 in my waistband didn't need a lock when I went into the store to get my new Sig P239/9mm? LOL

Yup, that’s the rule here in Ohio. I actually don’t mind - some of those are good locks, and I find other uses for them...

The last long gun I bought here in Iowa had a lock on it. Morons didn't give me a key. Rather than drive back the store to get a key I permanently disabled the lock. Took a long bladed screw driver and about 10 seconds.

Why not drop the locks off at the local PD or Sheriffs office so the officers can lock there weapons down at night. If they already do so then they can give them out a gifts to passerbys.
