How to Lock a Standard Glock Case

[Shotgun Man]

I was disappointed to find that the standard glock case is not easily lockable.

The last new handgun I purchased, a Ruger, came with a case with a hole in the handle, allowing one to insert a small, chintzy lock.

A standard masterlock gym locker combo can't close around the handle. I already dumped a lot of cash into this gun and am looking for a cheap solution.

I guess I need a lock with a longer shackle.

I'm surprised that Glock leaves the gun owner hanging on this one. I understand they sell a lockable case, but I'll be damned if I'm gonna buy that.

Cable lock, wrapped around the handle on the standard Glock case.

Thanks. I guess I should have added I'm looking for quick and easy access. On my Ruger I would set the combo lock just one digit off, and I can open it in a hurry.

So that's what that cable lock that I was forced to buy is for =)

Find a lock with a longer "U" bolt. They can be found at any hardware store.

a cable lock does not secure the old tupperware box ive been thinking about lathing a plug to fit through up from the bottom and put a hole for a padlock on the top

if you run a cable lock through that hole you could just open the lid pull the gun out with the cable lock and box still attached but it would still be functional

I found the best solution was at Home Depot. About 8 links of a small solid chain and small Master Lock. Works nicely and will not allow access. That was the problem I had with the standard cable lock and the amount it allowed to open would not have been considered locked and secured by the powers that be.

I found that if I wrap my cable lock around the handle 3 times, it securely locks the Glock case. (takes a little work)

Ruger 10-22 lock works perfectly.

I used a larger masterlock in the past, I found one that clears the handle perfect.
