Don't buy this safe

I finally got back a gun I haven't seen in a while.

This stupid thing stopped opening a few months after I got it. Lost the programmed code, and default code didn't work. After messing with it for a while, I popped it open with a screwdriver.

So, it will keep you out, but not anyone else.

Political tags - such as royalist, communist, democrat, populist, fascist, liberal, conservative, and so forth - are never basic criteria. The human race divides politically into those who want people to be controlled and those who have no such desire.

It's SOP to avoid the Chinese electronic locks. I know of one locksmith here in WI that makes a lot of money replacing them.
A plan is just a list of things that doesn't happen.
Is defenestration possible through the overton window?

Ain't no replacing this thing. It's going straight to the garbage.
