bubble Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Gun in hard case .... Use motorbike cable wrapped around case handle and attached to Luggage fixtures in boot of car with padlocks .... Aldi long shackle alarmed padlock over case handle. +1 I bought a long cable with end loops, designed for bikes, about 1.5 m long, keep wrapping round the plastic case until slack is taken up , then padlock it to the tie down shackle in the boot to remove it you will have to smash everything up, not impossible, but you would not remove it on a whim, you would have to go in 'hard' with tools no perfect but .......

Travlaa Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Cheers guys, some excellent suggestions there. Some that I can use if staying in a hotel and others if for whatever reason I have to leave parts in the car. Going to invest in a hard lockable case I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longchalk Posted February 15, 2014 Report Share Posted February 15, 2014 (edited) The FO that came out for my inspection said that in cases where cars get stolen with guns inside them, just having the gun locked to the chassis was often not considered a sufficiently reasonable precaution if leaving the vehicle unattended. He advised always taking the fore-end with you, as there would then be little chance of licensing problems if the car got nicked. If staying in a hotel in a group, swaps stocks, barrels and fore-ends amongst yourselves, so that an opportunistic thief can't get away with a working gun by just burgling one room.

Ugb25 Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 Just wanted to add that when you leave your gun locked in a hotel room take pictures of it on phone to prove you have taken this precaution we always lock ours to a radiator pipe or something that's fixed to floor or wall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but unlikely to be the case methinks. Edited February 17, 2014 by Longchalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HDAV Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 True, but unlikely to be the case methinks. Would almost certainly be the case with multiple smeis from the same make model.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longchalk Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 (edited) Would almost certainly be the case with multiple smeis from the same make model.... Of course... But I meant, how likely is it that your mates have exactly the same model of gun? If that is actually the case, then clearly don't bother!
