Hey everyone,
I am an Mechanical Engineering senior at Lawrence Tech University in Southfield Michigan (near Detroit). My group and I are working on our senior project. We want to design and build a better handgun safe or lock. We would like your guys help, what do you want in a handgun safe/lock? We want this handgun safe/lock ideal for all of you guys out there. If you would like to answer some or all of the fallowing questions it would help us out a lot, or if you just want to leave a question or comment that would be great. We are going to start our design in a few weeks (after finals are over with). We want to design a handgun safe or lock that more people will want to use. Your help will be MUCH appreciated!
Thanks!
1) Do you lock up your handgun? Why or why not?
2) Do you keep a handgun for home/work defense?
3) What is your biggest complaint about handgun safes/locks?
4) Where do you (or want to) keep your handgun? Is there anywhere you
want to keep it but cant?
5) Please rank the fallowing aspects from 1-5 (1 as the most important, 5
to the least).
a. Speed (time it takes to access the handgun)
b. Security (how hard it is for someone to break into it or steal it)
c. Protection (from fires or damage from the surrounding environment)
d. Weight (how much it weighs)
e. Mobility (ability to move from one place to another)
6) Would you be willing to buy a handgun safe/lock that's ideal to you?
7) What would you be willing to spend on your ideal handgun safe/lock?
a) $50-100
b) $100-200
c) $200-400
d) $400+
8) Would you be willing to buy a handgun safe/lock that uses biometrics
(like a fingerprint scanner)? Why or why not?
9) What do you like and dislike about your current handgun safe/lock or if
you don’t have one what do you like and dislike about the handgun
safes/locks out on the market today?
