About Tom McHale:

Tom McHale Tom McHale describes himself as a conservative gun-totin’ bible-clingin’ literary assault dude who enjoys finding humor in just about anything.

His web blog My Gun Culture is an irreverent, twisted look at gun news bordering on the ridiculous. It covers shootin’ stuff, loud noises, defending your own, the occasional mall ninja, and about 200 years of the American way.

“These are the (partially) true stories of… My Gun Culture” says Tom. Visit: www.mygunculture.com

      The Safety Bullet - Add Another Layer of Guns Safety To Your Weapon

      @Mr Stoll: After reading your post, I’ll give you that if you want it purely for an unattended pistol, not too bad an idea. My next question for everyone would be however, do you leave pistols laying around when your not home and just hope that a bullet in the barrel will protect them? I find this irresponsible as they should probably be locked up if unattended, and if so, this bullet would be totally unnecessary.
      So the only scenario they are necessary in, in agreement with Mr Stoll, is if you plan to leave your guns laying around unattended with magazines with rounds in them. (I expect screaming at pointing out this scenario’s ridiculousness).

      The Safety Bullet - Add Another Layer of Guns Safety To Your Weapon

      I have read all the comments to date and am somewhat puzzled. To put my biases up front, I distribute and sell this product. Before we start slamming it one way or the other, it is important to know what the SB is and, more importantly, what it isn’t.

      The SB is not designed for open or concealed carry. I agree with comments stressing that seconds, or even fractions thereof count. I don’t carry with it nor should any law enforcement, security or civilian person. Period, end of discussion.

      The SB is a safety device to prevent the accidental discharge of an unattended pistol. Trust me, when discharged, the SB turns the pistol/revolver into a paper weight. It is designed to do exactly that and no more.

      I do not have children in my home but when the grand kids come, the firearm is in a locked room to which only I and my wife have the key with SB’s in the pistol or revolver. Only I and my wife know SB’s are in the guns. If your children know it’s there, you are a bad parent.

      The SB complies with most states CAP regulations (Child Access Prevention). You can put your pistol/revolver in action faster than with any other locking device that I know of. The primary safety device on any pistol, Glock or otherwise, is the trigger finger of the shooter. Is that trigger finger yours, your child’s or some stranger’s.
