The Bulldog BD8011 trigger lock cable provides reliable firearm security with its metal construction and universal design that accommodates handguns, rifles, and shotguns. This keyed security device meets federal storage requirements while offering quick access when needed. The flexible cable design allows installation on firearms with various trigger guard configurations.
What Makes This Different
The BD8011 features a flexible steel cable that threads through the trigger guard and action, physically preventing the trigger from being pulled. Unlike rigid trigger locks that may not fit all firearms, this cable design adapts to different trigger guard sizes and shapes. The metal housing provides superior cut resistance compared to plastic alternatives, while the precision key mechanism ensures reliable operation over thousands of cycles.

- Flexible cable accommodates various firearm configurations

The cable lock installs in seconds by threading through the trigger guard and ejection port or magazine well, then securing with the key-operated lock. This method works effectively on bolt-action rifles, semi-automatic pistols, revolvers, and shotguns. The steel cable resists cutting attempts while the metal housing protects the locking mechanism from tampering. The design allows the firearm to remain visible for inventory purposes while preventing unauthorized use.
