What's up guys? This is Austin from A Man In His Gear. Today we're going to be
0:03
talking about a new product that came out semi-recently. It's a little bit different idea than everything else but before we get started on that let's make
0:11
sure that you subscribe to the channel and also check out more of a review down
0:16
in the description about this product. There's going to be a link down in the description
0:22
So let's go ahead and get things started here. Today we are going to be talking
0:27
about the stop box. The stop box is a handgun retention device. It's not meant to be replacing
0:32
it with a gun safe or a pistol safe or anything like that. It's more for if you want to keep your
0:38
firearm near you while you're transporting in between where you're going to and where you're
0:42
coming from. So things like being in your vehicle, it's on your side next to you or next to your
0:48
bedside, but you're not going to leave this alone. This is going to, you're going to want to hang on
0:52
this within reach. What it's meant to be is a quick access, something that you can really quickly get
0:58
to your pistol if you need to. So let's take a look. I have not actually opened this up myself
1:05
I did kind of do a quick review in the past and it was really cool. The stop box just wanted to
1:09
send out a review unit to me so I can take a look at it. So let's take a look. So this is a box. It's
1:14
going to be talking about all the different features of the safe. It's good for your nightstand
1:19
office vehicle, travel, or camping. And yeah, it's pretty standard. It's all
1:26
mechanical so no external keys electronics batteries and it going towards you know no failures Because the more you make something complicated the more likely it is to fail that why new cars are the way they are anyways so let take a look and I
1:41
guess I should probably brought a knife with me my name here my dogs walking
1:49
around the back we're gonna cut this all out all right I did not just use a
1:56
Phillips head screwdriver to open this thing. So let's take a look. Open it up. First things
2:04
All right. So it looks like we have probably an instruction guide looks like
2:10
Yeah. Instruction guide. Okay. So read me this stop box code lock is unique. And with some practice
2:17
you will be able to operate fluidly. Take the time to learn and understand before use
2:21
Please read all the warnings and safety precautions located in the instructions manual. So this is
2:25
actually a really good idea so this is kind of a gesture based opening so you
2:30
want to practice a ton with this thing because you want to make sure that you
2:34
are ready to do to do the combination so let's go ahead and there's the box and
2:41
here's the stop box let's go ahead and open it up really well packaged all
2:49
Alright, so this is the stop box. So kind of first impressions
2:55
it definitely is kind of a plastic material. I think it like a specific type of material but it very lightweight You can see right here let see You can see right here This is where that SnapSafe cable goes into which is pretty cool What you going to do is so this has five
3:12
keys on it. You can see there's one, two, three, four, five. So what you're going to do here is you
3:19
always have this thumb key right here, and then you have to push down. You can see. Let's see
3:26
See how it kind of goes down like that. That's not an issue with the product. That's actually how it's supposed to be. So you have to press down. So you press down with your finger right here
3:36
Then you have your thumb. And then this one and this one is how it's stock. You can change this
3:44
and it opens right up. And you can see the locking mechanism right here. So you can kind of see how
3:51
it works it's very very simple but very very quick access and you can see the foam insert
4:00
it's not a like you're not yeah don't expect when you're getting this to get something super
4:08
expensive super nice on the interior this is not meant like we were talking about before to be a
4:13
replacement for like a three or four hundred dollar gun safe and this is meant to retain your device
4:19
or your firearm to keep it away from kids keep it away from burglars whatever
4:25
or somebody that's coming after you you just want to make sure you're keeping your firearm away from them and just like any gun safe really what you're
4:32
doing when you buying a gun safe is you buying yourself time and when you buying yourself time this actually does a great job of it because what it does is say somebody breaks into your car and tries to steal your pistol what it
4:44
going to do is give you some time to figure out what you need to do because they can't get to your
4:48
firearm they have to figure out how to open this up or if you have quick access you can open it
4:53
right up so notice i can do this i literally have never used one of these in my life uh you can see
4:59
that I'm able to open it up right away. It's a very cool product, a very different idea
5:07
than anyone else is doing in the industry right now. Everybody's focusing on gun safes and pistol safes
5:13
and steel or aluminum or whatever everyone else is doing. This is a very different idea, and it works
5:20
I think I was seeing these around $80. So for $80, you can keep your gun safe out of somebody's hands
5:27
buy yourself some time and have quick access to it. Hey guys, so after I did the review
5:33
I spent some time to kinda get used to a little bit. Once you actually have something in here
5:37
it's a little bit easier to get into because it kinda springs up a little bit more
5:41
and also when you're not holding it. So once it's on a table, it's super easy to open
5:46
You just gotta have something in there that kinda springs it up a tiny bit
5:50
So you just press down and opens right up. Super easy, super quick
5:55
Still the quickest access box I've ever seen and is very, very neat
