Why is the Safety Bullet the # 1 selling safety device in the world?
The Safety Bullet out sells all other devices because it fills a need. For gun owners with kids this device works far better than anything else on the market. It is the speed of getting your gun ready to fire that gives the Safety Bullet its edge over all other Safety Devices. In a blink you can have your gun ready to fire. Yet if a child or intruder finds your gun and pulls the trigger on the Safety Bullet the Safety Bullet will lock up your gun solid. Plus no keys are required no combination locks to have to undo just rack your gun and its ready!

ANSWERS TO YOUR QUESTIONS
Question: What makes the Safety Bullet different from all the other devices?
There are a lot of Safety Devices on the market. Cable locks, trigger locks, you name it, and they can be priced from free to a couple of grand for a large gun safe. Or just hide your gun in your sock drawer! No one will find it. Your kids know exactly where your gun is, as well as the ammo you have put somewhere else.
So, what's the answer?
You have a gun for protection, not to be chained up. That's why a lot of us keep a loaded gun, me included. If I need my firearm I don't want to disable a safety device in the dark and then try to load my gun. That takes time and time in a home invasion is something you don't have.
That is why I invented the Safety Bullet®. If you keep your gun loaded, put a Safety Bullet® in the firing chamber and one at the top of the magazine. If anyone pulls the trigger the gun is locked up. If anyone cycles the action and pulls the trigger the gun is locked up.I know the Safety Bullet® is loaded in my firearm, so I cycle the action twice; once for the bullet in the chamber and the second time for the bullet in the top of the magazine.Two seconds is all it takes, and with practice, one second.
Any other device will send you looking for a key or trying to remember the combination to your lock. That's nuts and not for me. I like to keep it simple, so I use the Safety Bullet ®because it is simple, easy, safe and fast.
Question: How does it work?
When a hammer falls on the Safety Bullet® it ignites the primer. The primer is all the force that is needed to instantly send the components of the Safety Bullet® into action.
The force of the primer pushes a ram made out of Aluminum forward about 1/4 of an inch, where it stops. It stops because a crimp has been placed in the shell casing to stop the Ram and hold it inside the shell casing. The Ram has moved through plastic sleeve that is also held inside the shell casing.
The plastic sleve I call the Expander, because it expands outward against the inside of your firearms firing chamber.
The Expanders forward end has an X cut placed in it to allow it to be spread by the ram. It expands outward less than 1/4 of an inch against the walls of the firearms firing chamber. That does not seem like much, but it is held in place by enough pressure that no one can remove the Safety Bullet® without the use of an ejector rod.
The expander is made of Delrin and does not harm the gun in any way.
The Ram has moved out past the end of the Safety Bullets'® expander and into the barrel of the gun. In an automatic it works like a dream. In a revolver, the Ram that has moved into the barrel of the firearm stops the cylinder from revolving and renders the revolver locked up also.
To remove the Safety Bullet®, push the ram back inside the Safety Bullet® and this will relieve the pressure. A rod comes with the bullets for that purpose.
After firing, send the Safety Bullet back to us with $2.00 to cover postage and handling and we will reprime them for you. We will inspect your Safety Bullet to make sure it is still perfect and if it not we replace it for free.
Question: Isn't education and training the real answer to this problem?
What I did before I started on the quest to invent a new Safety Device was to read as many stories on Accidental Shootings as I could find.
Education and training is what my father hammered into my head. He sent me to a firearm Safety Course and it taught me a lot. Most responsible gun owners have had a Safety Course and practice those lessons that were taught to all of us.
OK, then why are we still having Accidental Shootings? What I found after 6 years of reading hundreds of cases, is that most Accidental Shootings are caused by those people that did not have the benefit of a Safety Course. Rarely do those of us who have had the education and experience get involved in an Accidental shooting.There are some gun owners who will never use a safety device. Even if it means putting their kids at risk and violating State Law. They state that using Safety devices will get them killed. The only safety device they rely on is their brain.
Go to Google and do a search for accidental shooting cases and start reading. Every one of those involved state " I never thought it would happen to me" The results of their thinking ended in an Accidental Shooting and got them throw in jail. Now they have completely lost all rights to own a gun.
Most cases are caused by people that don't have any experience with a firearm other than what they see on TV. Guns are power, they have a mystique to them. For that reason some children are drawn to them.
Emory University in Atlanta did a study of how children respond when they see or find a firearm. They put several kids in each of 20 rooms and they also placed an unloaded firearm in each room. The parents got to watch how their kids handled the situation if the unloaded gun was found.
In 15 of the rooms a child found the unloaded firearm. In several of those instances the kids pulled the trigger on the gun. In only one case did a child leave the room to tell an adult that there was a gun in the room.
My suggestion to you is to go to any search engine and type in Accidental Shootings. Start reading the stories.
Is this better than keeping an unloaded gun? Yes!! Just put in the Safety Bullet®. If a kid or anyone else that is not supposed to touch your gun pulls the trigger, clink, it's locked up. If the gun was empty, the unauthorized user would then go looking for some bullets. With the gun firmly locked up they cannot load anything in the gun. Yes, it is better to load a Safety Bullet® than leave the gun totally unloaded.
For real safety, place a Safety Bullet® in your firearm and pull the trigger. It just became a paperweight. Now you can proudly display your guns without fear that someone will place a lethal round in it, until you remove your Safety Bullet®!!
Is this a great idea or what!!
There are some that object to the Safety Bullet. If you take the time to analyze what they are saying they have never tried one. They refuse to do a side by side comparison between the Safety Bullet and any other gun safety device. Why? Because NOTHING is faster than this. I have offered everyone that thinks something else is better to do a side by side test they have ALL refused. The Safety Bullet blows all other locks out of the water. There simply is nothing better.
Does the Safety Bullet offer a false sense of security?
I sent out a question to a # of my dealers and distributer to answer the question: Does the Safety Bullet offer a false sense of security.
Here is what a former Navy Captain had to say.
A sense of security is just that?.a sense and, buddy, they are all false.No matter what safety device is in use it is a foolish person who thinks it is infallible.Kids find the keys, watch you set the combination or find where it is hidden, latches fail to close completely, batteries go dead, and, yes, the Safety Bullet can be removed.A savvy or lucky (maybe unlucky) person can defeat any safety device ever invented.
Any device you have is only that, a device.It has no brain.Ejection seats fail to fire, parachutes fail to open, seat belts break and airbags fail to deploy.The thought that a safety device can give a false sense of security has merit.Those who take that logic to the point of not wearing a seat belt since they might not be able to escape a burning car are not worthy of continued discussion.
If you fly fast aircraft, own guns, drive race cars or date strange women you are tempting fate at every turn.Any safety device is better than none and, while none is perfect, the Safety Bullet is, in my opinion, by far the best when it comes to primary function (safety of children) while still allowing the owner use of the weapon in very short order.
Failure to use any safety device as directed and developed increases the chances of raising the IQ in the gene pool.
Old, fat safety officer and accident investigator
Here is mine.
The safety bullet like any firearm safety device does what it does But it does it better than any other safety device on the market. It offers the gun owner instant access to his gun with out a key or combination lock. It protects the owner of a gun and everyone else that may come in contact with it from an accidental shooting. Does it have its faults of course! All safety devices have their faults. The Consumer product safety commission has show that cable locks and trigger locks are simply not safe. Please go to Safety Bullet Vs web page and read their findings. Gun safes offer great long term protection and are not comparable to the Safety Bullet. All of them except the instant access models and not comparable to the Safety Bullet. Those instant access gun safes have issues also. In the worse case scenario if your gun is needed and the battery is dead, or the unit got wet and shorted out your back using a key. Plus lets talk $ and cents. The Safety Bullet for what it does is far more inexpensive than the instant access models and you never have to worry about it shorting out. The safety bullet was engineered to give the owner of any firearm that it is configured for instant access to live rounds so he can protect his family if needed. Yet if anyone tries to use the gun that is not authorized the safety bullet will instantly disable the firearm. The safety Bullet goes a long way towards giving the owner a real sense of security. He knows that he has purchase the finest firearm safety device made.
If you examine those that have a real issue with the Safety Bullet you will find that they sell other safety devices. Most other devices have been made obsolete by the Safety Bullet because nothing is faster or easier than the safety Bullet, period.
Mike Worley Inventor of the Safety Bullet
Mike,
I completely agree with these statements, and especially with Rule #1. As they say,"never wrestle with a pig, you both get dirty, but the pig just enjoys it". Seriously, I believe it is in our best interest to be champions of ANY type of safety device; is our mission not, after all, to help keep people safe and possibly save lives? I NEVER speak down any safety device anyone has or uses, but when I promote the SB at shows I tend to make this distinction: While any safety device is a good addition to your firearm, I don't consider any other safety device anything other than a SAFE KEEPING DEVICE just like my safe. Why? For the same reason people don't use the other safety devices, time to access your firearm or the inability to easily take the safety device with you. The Safety Bullet is the only ACTIVE safety device, period. We know the rest. The SB is the only device that easily goes with you ALWAYS protecting you, camping, traveling, and so on, even in your holster. Does the SB, or any other safety device, take the place of proper training, handling,and Respect for a firearm? Again, absolutely not. Does it give a false sense of security, I hope not but some people may get that notion and if so, we should discourage it by reminding them nothing's perfect, including the firearm and ammunition itself. After all, firearms NEVER malfunction and ammunition ALWAYS works and for that matter, the government always has your best interests as their top priority. The bottom line is, The Safety Bullet is simply the best system available to keep innocence, curiosity, (kids) and, unfortunately, stupidity, (adults who should know better but don't) from getting hurt or killed from a mistake. It is our responsibility to present the product fairly and ACCURATELY. People are going to think and do what they want.
For those guns that we have configured it to, yes. It works perfectly every time. For now we have Safety Bullets® for these calibers:
9 mm - 357 cal - 38 cal - 40 cal - 44 mag - 45 acp
We are working on several other calibers and will list those as they become available. If you have a special need let me know by emailing me.
