On a safety/security level, this cable is not Fort Knox. You would not use this a bike lock. but in certain applications, to lock something. This can work very well.
Pros:
- long cable
- flexible cable
- not obtrusive or gawdy looking
Cons:
- getting key into lock can be a little tricky sometimes
- clearer marking on which direction to insert cable to "lock"
Would I purchase this cable again? For my application. Yes.
Do I recommend this product? Yes, for certain applications, yes.
The build quality is impressive, with a sturdy and durable cable that can withstand the rigors of outdoor use. The included keys make it a breeze to lock and unlock, ensuring that my trail camera stays exactly where I placed it. Whether I'm securing my camera to a tree or a post, the Master Lock Python Cable Lock provides the peace of mind I need to leave my camera in the field without worrying about theft.
This versatile cable lock has also proven its worth in other scenarios, such as locking my kayak during transport. The flexibility and length of the cable make it adaptable to various situations, which is a significant plus.
The Master Lock Python Cable Lock is a must-have for anyone looking to safeguard their trail camera, kayak, or other valuable outdoor equipment. It's reliable, durable, and incredibly easy to use, offering top-notch security and peace of mind. I couldn't be happier with this purchase, and I highly recommend it to fellow outdoor enthusiasts and trail camera users!
But the problem with a lever action is that a regular trigger lock won't work, and shy of a gun safe (which I think I need to get anyway), I couldn't think of another way to 'safe' this gun. I've seen locks for hand guns that pass a cable through the muzzle and and out of the breech (or vice versa) and then secures both ends of the cable into a padlock mechanism. This makes it impossible to chamber a round, rendering the gun unable to fire. But they are only 15" long (which means they would work for barrels up to about 6", and the barrel on my little rifle is a little over 21".
Then it hit me - if I could find a general purpose cable lock of some kind with a cable that is thin enough to pass through the smaller-than-a-quarter-inch bore (i.e. 0.22") and at least a little more than double the length of the barrel plus receiver of my rifle, it might just work. I'm happy to say that I found this version of the Python with a 3/16" (about 0.19") cable, and that it passed neatly through the barrel. Passing the cable through the barrel and into the lock then removing the slack serves my purpose of rendering it impossible to fire the rifle. And since the cable is coated in a flexible plastic material I'm not worried about it damaging the gun.
Only word of caution: Make sure that you take up all the slack when using Python cable locks to secure items. This lock is called a Python because it constricts but doesn't loosen it's grip without the key being turned to unlock it, kind of like a Python snake/other constrictors.
!!You can tighten the cable without the key, but you CAN NOT loosen it without the key!!
So, if someone inserts a body part - say like a hand or a head - in the loop formed by the cable and are able to tighten it, that person could be come trapped. This could pose a strangulation hazard if there is sufficient slack in the right configuration, especially to the little tykes. Given my use that danger doesn't really exist as it's impossible to tighten the cable any farther, but you should take up the slack to protect others.
