I've got one, identical to Mr. Elmore's pic, that I picked up at a gun show probably 18 months back. Living in KC MO, and traveling into the land of Oz regularly, I use it all the time. Works great for what I need if for, but it is _not_ a fast access unit (if the key's are in the ignition, you're hosed).

The cable wouldn't stop someone with a pair of bolt cutters, but I'd not want to try to cut it with a leatherman! It's intended use is to stop 'smash and grab' style theft, and I think if fills that roll well.

Mine will fit a small auto, a full size glock won't go. The foam padding has degenerated with use, but still holds the gun firmly.

Been very happy with mine. Build quality is good and I feel pretty secure leaving my weapon in the car while I run into places the gun must stay out of.

From the one pic, it looks like the cable sticking out from under the seat could actually attract attention from the wrong crowd. My brother inlaw is a police officer and we talked about how sophisticated gangs are at observing and casing cars. He said they'll watch cars when they pull into a mall parking lot and can often tell from their upper body movements if they're putting something away. I wonder if that little cable would "telegraph" to those who are looking that there's a valuable stored under that seat!

I'd like to get one of these but I think I'd try to make sure it was 100% concealed from anyone looking into the vehicle....

Finally got mine today...got lost in the mail USPS fault not COM. Spent about 20 minutes trying to break one, not plausible with bare hands if locked shut. COuld probably twist the 2 halves when open but it would take some serious effort. The hinge is attached INSIDE and you cannot remove the hinge pin.

You could probably open this with some hand tools, hovwever all locks are just to keep an honest person honest...even your $5000 safe can be opened with some effort.

Worth the money, especially if you carry to work but cannot carry in work.
