I would want to come up with some way to cover it up or disguise it since a criminal looking in your window would know immediately it was a gun safe.

[@cgrreviews7220]

Showing the safe off to multiple people they have sat in my car and they don’t even notice or care for the safe less did they know it was a actual gun safe but theft happens everywhere so covering up could be good idea just a extra step to do that and remember every time to do it

[@Ad48069]

Just lay a sweater over it

[@PariahTheGreek]

I've owned some pretty expensive gun vaults with electronic locks, and they've all presented access issues at some point. I've been switching over to Simplex; so far I have a solid steel tactical trunk and locking wall mount for my Mossberg. They're actually faster than punching a code into most electronic safes. Definitely gonna look into the StrikeBox.

[@cgrreviews7220]

It’s honestly nice how the strike box works it’s no electronics at all purely mechanical and works amazing

[@PariahTheGreek]

@cgrreviews7220 I ordered two. Pretty excited to check em out.

[@cgrreviews7220]

@@PariahTheGreek been using mine since the day I purchased it zero issues best safe in my opinion

[@newguy2794]

We have a couple of lockboxes in each of our vehicles. They attach to the seat mounts just like this gun box. We use them when we can't take our guns into a prohibited (there shouldn't be any prohibited places but thats another story) place. When driving, we have "driving holsters" from Azula. They make high quality holsters at very good prices. The driving holster goes on your belt in the front and are basically horizontal rather than vertical. I believe they call the seated holsters. They are awesome for road trips as well. Have a great day y'all and be safe. P. S. The lockboxes are about $30.

[@cgrreviews7220]

Very true I guess what made me go this route is I wanted to have a full size pistol on hand at all times plus my garage is attached to the house so I just lock it and it’s always there no matter what so if I don’t bring my mid size with me that full size is always in my vehicle plus I didn’t want a magnet 🧲 mount or holster mount because it’s still very visible I already hate police encounters or even traffic stops enough that if they saw it like that I can’t imagine what they would think so this safe gives me protection fast access to it at all times and to this day some people still don’t know it’s a gun safe but I do see what you mean

[@brianburke2392]

Great video ! Thank you sir . I am getting one also

[@cgrreviews7220]

No problem glad you enjoyed the video and the strike box is the one to go with it still enjoying mine

[@greko137]

Thanks for the info.

[@cgrreviews7220]

Any time!

[@nickd8406]

I was legit ready to buy a hornady, and it seemed like the best on the market. Then I saw a short from kwik, and then this video sealed the deal. Thank you bro.

[@cgrreviews7220]

Yes trust me hornady has all the bells and whistle we would like but is so horrible to keep it mounted

[@CodeKiLLa26]

I thought of getting the rapid safe and creating a mounting bracket to the car seat instead of that air bag. I really like rfid for the speed.

[@cgrreviews7220]

I agree with you if you are able to create a custom bracket for the rapid safe instead of that air bag that would awesome to have for sure

[@garyzimmerman8679]

I bolted my Hornady to my Molle panel in my Bronco

[@dominicsue]

Key only access is a deal breaker for me. I get that you like the smaller safe, but I need more from my car safe.

[@cgrreviews7220]

I understand with vehicle safes there are many choices but I promise you to go look for a quick access safe that gets a handgun to you quick and easy you won’t find any other 2 safes then these two here

[@garyzimmerman8679]

I like the Hornady because with the rfid I’m in it fast. I don’t use the inflatable. I mounted the Hornady with security bolts to my Molle panel in my vehicle. Very secure and very fast to open. My only problem is that it doesn’t fit my full size 45acp and it’s tight fit for my Beretta 92FS. I stuck a rfid decal on the back of my vehicle key fob. I have issue with keys.

[@cgrreviews7220]

I agree with you the HORNADY destroys the stopbox with all the features it has out of the box 📦 but this comparison is more like a straight out the box install like you mentioned you had to modify your HORNADY to your liking and get it exactly how you want it. But many people do not have the time or knowledge on how to mod it to the way they want it but I agree with you

[@garyzimmerman8679]

@@cgrreviews7220 yes, I agree with you. Like everything what’s the best product for one person may not be the best for another person. Although there are also some bad products out there that are not good for anyone for many different reasons too. I found for my uses, I have to modify most things to get what I really want.

[@cgrreviews7220]

@@garyzimmerman8679 and that’s the way to go because if you can get something then modify it to fit exactly what you need no other product will ever top that

[@randyjoseph462]

You can use a soldering iron to re-embed the nutserts into the plastic ring. You can even buy oversized nut-serts from a fastenal/grainger type store and embed them with a soldering iron. The simplicity of a purely mechanical storage box is nice but I hate messing with keys etc instead of a simple RFID wrist band.

[@cgrreviews7220]

That is a good idea 👍 the key I only use it to unlock it once unlocked 🔓 just a tap of the knee and the safe opens immediately I will only lock it if I’m leaving the vehicle for a long time

[@hakankosebas2085]

please show inside of strike product and show how it is work, I wonder how it pop out and mechanism of it

[@cgrreviews7220]

I’ll try to make a video showing more

[@RedDawnAviation]

How about Titan Gun Vault. Ejects gun into your hand and add on for ammonias well

[@cgrreviews7220]

I didn’t know about that one I’m going to look it up right now thank you

[@RedDawnAviation]

@@cgrreviews7220 yeah no worries. I believe it was the first out of the box. It’s cool that it holds a magazine as well. Both are separated (ca law anyway) both are locked with a combination (ca law metrics don’t count) and when it opens you slap the haziness into the butt of the gun, pull the pistol out rack it and good to go. Perfect if one doesn’t have a CCW permit and better yet if they do!

[@cgrreviews7220]

@@RedDawnAviation I’m going to look at videos of it where I’m at it wouldn’t matter because if I didn’t have a ccw they still want the fire arm and magazine separated and the gun in the truck of the vehicle your driving and only to the gun range and your house that’s all

[@RedDawnAviation]

@@cgrreviews7220 they are separated, $80 add on is in its own locked container that can only be opened when the main container is opened. If you have a CCW the the extra constrained can simply hold another mag. This setup is legal inCA which is notorious for gun rules, that criminals don’t obey haha

[@petsmart2362]

Looks like someone you know is getting a Hormandy car safe for Christmas 😅

[@cgrreviews7220]

The hornady safe has awesome features just hate the mount they used for it

[@nickc7320]

3:10 if I'm in the car. I'm probably driving the car. This means the case has power. If I'm not in the car. I'm carrying a piece on me. If I'm getting into the car, I'm carrying a piece with me. If I'm getting in the car, I'm carrying a piece with me.

[@cgrreviews7220]

Honestly for me it was the way the hornady safe features I like but i hated the way it was supported by just a air bag and in cold climate it always deflated on me

[@BadmanMC407]

I really couldnt care less about how the box locks, im really just looking for quick access that is legal and comfortable. If it were up to me id just ride with fire in my lap but troll dont like that one bit

[@cgrreviews7220]

That is true so far for my state this has been the best safe where it gives me quick access to my firearm and I can lock it to keep it safe

[@tarichar8]

How does the cable in the quick strike fit through those two little holes?

[@cgrreviews7220]

I have a video coming up in the next day or two doing a update on how it’s holding up and you can see how it fits please subscribe so you don’t miss the video

[@saynotocensorship]

The Kwikstrike is a very simple but effective design. It’s very well constructed as well. And if you can avoid the urge to play with it, it will last you a long long time. 😂 I would never even consider the Hornady. It’s over engineered. 🤷‍♂️

[@cgrreviews7220]

100 percent agree with you the features are awesome and cool to be honest but the way the safe hangs by just a air bag pushing against your car seat and center console sucks because the safe is always sagging down it’s just too much weight for that little air bag

[@thomashernandez8601]

Why did you mention the price of the Hornady and not the other?🧐

[@cgrreviews7220]

Just a quick error the other one when I purchased it was about $250-$300 can’t recall

[@mannycuevas2573]

Can you put a gun with a light in it

[@cgrreviews7220]

I would say depends on the gun if it’s a full size I would say no but if it’s a smaller one I believe it would fit no issue I’m making a part 2 of the safe

[@robertschoessel8535]

Great video 👍. I'd also recommend Valtech gun safe for 250.00 very nice 👍.

[@cgrreviews7220]

@@deleteduser3749 yes the hornady has a cable with a cigarette lighter adapter and that powers the safe but also charges the battery that’s why the stopbox strike in my opinion is much better

[@george-a.m.75]

Hornady has disadvantage, that the airbag will quit in cold temperatures, because of the air contracts after driving around in a heated car, and then it gets cold inside 🥶 and outside... Bad invention, or put a small compressor who evens the pressure

[@cgrreviews7220]

I agree I feel like the features the safe has are amazing they need to work on a better way to mount it to a vehicle besides the air bag

[@marktaylor3630]

Only thing is. How? Quickly could you get into it with a key in a extremely stressful situation?

I only lock it when I’m leaving my vehicle for a long time but once I’m driving it’s always unlocked

how tough is the cable?

Of course no vehicle safe is criminal proof but the concept is it’s better than just hiding it under your front seat having a spare gun next to you at all times no matter what safe you get in a vehicle or home 🏠 they will find away to take it this is just an extra layer of protection that’s all
