M4-Desert Camo Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 Can someone explain to a newb how a chamber lock works (specifically for shotgun)? Quote
benelliwerkes Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 Do you mean how is the bolt held open in a Benelli M1,M2,M4 ? Or, how does the Benelli bolt lock up into battery with the barrel extension? Quote
XTrooper Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 I believe he's talking about a "chamber lock" safety device. I've only seen them for handguns. http://www.brownells.com/shooting-accessories/training-safety-gear/gun-locks/chamber-locks-prod42637.aspx Quote
benelliwerkes Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 Those kind of "chamber locks".......aha. Omega Systems explains the locking action mechanisms on their website.......shotguns included. http://www.omegagunlock.com/companyinfo.htm Quote
M4-Desert Camo Posted January 31, 2013 Author Posted January 31, 2013 I was referring to this lock http://store.benelliusa.com/gun-locks Quote
M4-Desert Camo Posted January 31, 2013 Author Posted January 31, 2013 Elaborate please? I would like to use something on rare occasions. My kids are older and I don't need to worry about them being curiuos regarding the M4. It's when we have company that might have younger children/teenagers staying with us is when I would feel better locking the gun. Quote

You've got a safe, right? Quote
M4-Desert Camo Posted January 31, 2013 Author Posted January 31, 2013 I think a safe might be the best option as it will satisfy a few needs I have. I'm liking the Barska bio-metric models (I know, I have read the reviews, don't need Fort Knoxx) to go in my bedroom closet. Quote
M4Whore Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 It would appear that the "chamber lock" has lugs similar to the bolt head. Guessing the "lugs" mate into the barrel extention and then lock in, effectively blocking the barrel. Why not purchase a "Cable Lock" for under $10.00. After unloading your shotgun and locking the bolt back , place the cable into the receiver from the bottom opening and out the ejection port. Then merely secure the cable to the attached lock and you're good to go... Quote
