Security Chains or Cable for Airguns

[copperjacket]

I am looking for recommendations for a replacement security cable or chain for my Airguns - my current versions have preformed coils in them which is a monumental pain.

So I am looking for something chunky / strong ,flexible,straight and plastic coated that will pass through the trigger guards of most Airguns with particular attention to the eyelets at the end. Ideally with eyelets or hoops at each end that I can use with my own padlocks.

Ideally something long enough for at least 10 rifles / pistols but I can of course daisy chain if needed.

What are you all using or can recommend please?

Many thanks.

Would a motorcycle or bicycle security chain/cable work for you?

Or maybe a motorbike throttle or bicycle brake cable?

One of the cables you buy for dogs, looped at both ends and plastic coated

That’s the sort of thing I am thinking of however the problem may be the size of the ferrule or indeed finished loop as no one seems to quote this. Being brutally honest I’m hoping someone else can take the guesswork out of this!

Some push bike ones designed with a seperate lock can be a bit narrower, in the current one you mention coils being an issue, have you tried using heat to take the coils out to make it work?

Thank you for the idea but I’m concerned not to melt the plastic coating. Tried hanging from the ceiling for 2 weeks with 15 litres of paint on the bottom but very quickly recoiled itself on release.
