LockPickingLawyer cracks an egregious gun safe:

I acknowledge their thumbnail is horrible. They're a great channel, though!

Most locks are similar, he now only shows details for unusual locks.

He takes out the handle with a pry bar and you can reach in and take the gun. What further do you want them to explain lol

Wow, that's is...... Bad. I really want him to do the Wyze gun lock. Curious how that handles.

Just wait until you see the SmartFire:

In their ad's they leave it on a bookshelf behind their couch, while they watch a movie with their kid.

There's definitely no way a child with access to Wikipedia/ youtube could get that out. /s

Edit: Here's a Forgotten Weapons video to give the Biofire™️ some context/ credence:

Doesn't that gun not engage the electronic firing mechanism if you don't authenticate via fingerprint? Or am I thinking of a different one?

Xanthrax@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 2y

I'm going to do an edit and link a forgotten weapons video to give it credence. You're correct. I still think someone could easily break the gun away from the holster (including a child), and eventually figure out a way to fire the gun.

Edit: Also, I'm a pro-arms advocate; I also believe in responsible storage and use.

Is that an exposed trigger while it is supposedly locked? Brilliant

I swear to god if that screen asks me to leave a tip...

"I don't know how anyone can be this stupid and still breathing"

Fucking burn! That's the most scathing review I've seen him leave. It was a terrible design though. Yeesh!

In this case it's ... Really not worth explaining anything? And it's not like it's an unusual tool. It's just a pry bar.

Agree in general though

For a channel that built it's reputation on in-depth explanations, if it's not with explaining then it's not worth a video.

He still does teardowns sometimes, but he definitely gets more views just talking shit. His videos over ten minutes get a fraction of the engagement.

Personally, I'm a massive fan of McNallyOfficial these days, who also just mostly simps covert instruments, but he does so while demonstrating all the ways that a speed square can be used to defend against mannequin attacks.

Those vids are highly entertaining. He has also taught me that a lot of padlocks can be opened just by smacking them, which is fun to watch.

TesterJ@lemmy.world · 20 pts · 2y

Well, I definitely agree with him. That may be the dumbest safe design I've ever seen.

LPL's YouTube channel has unfortunately got pretty weak over the last couple years. Very short videos showing things that we've seen hundreds of times before. Very little extra information anymore. Really not worth watching.

It's cozy

Kecessa@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 2y

The only way a gun is safe is by melting it

Xanthrax@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

I agree. That's why there should be as many "complications", as possible. The struggle is making an easily accessible gun, that isn't accessible to others. It's a puzzle.

PsychedSy@sh.itjust.works · 1 pts · 2y

On DoD approved safes the time to defeat it is listed. If you're willing to make noise you can beat them in as little as 30m.

Kusimulkku@lemm.ee · 1 pts · 2y

It's just that your complaint was under this particular video.

I quite like his videos. They're very cozy

That thumbnail is so egregious it makes me hesitant to believe you when you say they are a great channel.

Xanthrax@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

From what I've heard, they've gone the way of click bait, but they're old stuff is good. This video in particular is pretty funny too, and a good psa.

Xanthrax@lemmy.world · 0 pts · 2y

Good to know.
