Rough Rider trigger lock not approved?

[73Jim]

I am purchasing a little single action revolver, Heritage Rough Rider, and the lgs said the trigger lock that comes with the revolver isn't an approved device so I need to buy a cable lock. So I have three questions, first is that right? Secondly, how do you use a cable lock on a single action revolver? Lastly, I have a single pistol gunvault...does that count?

I bought the same gun a while back and didn't have to buy a separate lock. But, LGSs have different interpretations of the laws .. don't know who's technically right or wrong, but I didn't need one.

You may wish to call Heritage and ask. The fact it's a trigger lock may confuse them.

You also need to procure a lock within 30 days of taking possession if the firearm does not come with one.

That's PRIOR TO taking possession - it's a checkoff item for the LGS: bring the lock and a receipt dated 30 days or less prior to the pickup-date for the gun.

So, go to Walmart, buy the lock, bring the lock and receipt, pick up the gun, return the lock. Be sure you have a completely-enclosing locking case to transport the handgun.

As always, Librarian is correct. That's what I meant but can see now it was unclear. Thanks for the clarification.
