The Gun Box Echo

[BostonFJ40]

This looks like a nice gun box. The price is high but I like their intent, which is to bring the gun box out from under the bed and on to the counter or coffee table. Big Bertha sounds interesting too.

Biometric safes are not good for defense guns. If your finger(s) is scratched, cut, dirty, bloody, oily, etc., it may not work. Best to stay with mechanical systems

This one is RFID too.

You will never be able to take the transmitter off. Not a life plan for me. Personally, I dont want to wear a ring or bracelet for the rest of my life in order to open a safe.

Spend money to put my firearm into a fancy box? Nah, I have pistols all over the house in places only I know about. Out of sight out of mind. Of course if I lived in MA I couldn't do this. They mandate everything down there including how to urinate and how to store firearms. Keep fighting Mass folks...you have a lot of shit to overcome down there

Does this model of "The Gun Box" also come with the backdoor "safety screw", allowing access without creds?

From the manufacturer:

How do i access the box if the electronics fail? "If all the electronics fail we we have a procedure for opening the box."

The infamous "back door". Have they shared it with the FBI?

No, but Apple is working on it

"As some describe it: A roomba with a gun inside"

Apparently they've shared it with just about everyone, it's a "secret" video showing how to defeat the box with an allen wrench (included).

Here's an artists recreation:

Well there goes keeping kids out. They'll be all over that in minutes. Totally useless except for legal compliance or basically a warning that "hey someone is currently playing with your gun."

Any info on the company? I don't think I'd try a start-ups take on a biometric gun safe when the big players aren't getting it right.

Wow, what a complete waste of effort. Who the hell designs a "safe" with such an easy back door?

Was I the only one bothered by the guy with his finger on the trigger of the 1911 in the video?
