Am I the only one to find this Recall a wee bit ridiculous??
Yes, that is ridiculous. This is not a product for children.
WTH is the issue?? Don’t you let your 2 year old child play with your SIG??
That’s crazy!! The only button battery-powered device that can’t be accessed by a child in my home is the laser/light attachment on my firearm locked in my child-proof approved safe.
What’s next? Child safety warnings on bullets and the gas pedals of cars?

At least they recalled an actual child product.
A good reason not to buy anything safety related from an Amazon marketplace seller without an actual name. Amazon bears zero liability, and the company, zero tracability:

Do you own a firearm of any kind? If so, what firearm safe do you store your firearm in? What is the LpL? My safe is a California approved safe and the one that my firearm is stored in.
LpL is a gun owning lawyer who posts as “Lockpicking Lawyer” on YouTube. He checks all types of locks (bike, door, gun, antique, etc). On occasional vendors watch his videos and improve the products.
What does that have to do with anything?
How about: he’s a well known YouTube creator, who also has a job as a lawyer, and when showing firearms on his channel, appears to use best practice gun safety and talks about gun safety. I personally trust his reviews of locks. He’s probably not a home inspector :-). He never shows his face, only his hands, but others have identified who he is offline.
Again, how does this pertain to MY SAFE and the firearm that is appropriately stored in it per California standards???
The YouTube channel tests gun safes and has found that many seemingly solid options actually can be opened without the original key or code, or in some cases just by dropping them. That’s as far as it goes. Just because your particular safe meets California standards is approved and is advertised as “child proof” could mean a lot or very little.
Perhaps the CPSC could spend a bit more time on YouTube, and pick something actually dangerous to recall :-).
Seems like you know a lot about droppable safes. Is your gun safe easily droppable?? You never answered me if you even own a firearm?!
Do you know how droppable my safe is? You’re assuming a lot !
You’re assuming I care what safe you have, which is untrue.
Then why the response? Just keeping misinformation to a minimum. I’ll still have a beer or latte with you since we’re so close…
and you’ve been very helpful to me as I’m a junior inspector to your experience so I don’t forget that
BTW… Here is the safe that I installed and store my firearm in. You can’t access my firearm with a fork. Stupid banter at its best
I, for one, would love to know how many young (or older) children can ‘pick’ a gun safe to gain access to the batteries within the sights… and then ingest them??
