This ad came up on the webpage for a respected business news site in NYC (where guns are, for all intents and purposes, illegal).

Access Your Chambered Firearm In 2.3-Seconds Or Less

If you're like most gun owners you keep your home defense weapon in a safe…usually, in your master bedroom closet. Nothing wrong with that except...what if you need to quickly access it to protect family or yourself from a home invasion or burglary?

By the time you make your way to the safe and unlock (in the dark)...you’re already too late!

In fact many experts believe if you can’t get to your gun within 10-15 seconds there’s no point of having it around as home defense weapon.

In order to protect yourself, family and property you need to be able to get to your weapon in seconds no matter where you're at in the house.

The trick is how do you do that?

The fastest, easiest and most practical way is too strategically place a Tactical Trap in your home or office...

1. Note the trigger locks, required in most states.

O, sorry. Doesn't seem to be any. Hope the kids don't look under the bowl.

5. In don't think most places require locked-up guns

to also have trigger locks.

To be fair my knowledge is feeble at best —I only own one really old gun, I don’t have any ammunition for it, and it exists purely as a cool historical piece to sit harmlessly on the wall. My interest in firing it is nil.

2. Ooh, LED lighting system

Does that come on automatically when you open the gizmo? No sense letting your intruder shoot wildly in the dark when you can have a light come on to give away your position.

3. There are 41,000+ civilian gun permit holders in New York City

Not counting the 40,000 active-duty police officers who are allowed to bring their sidearms home.

Sounds like there is a sizeable, legal customer base for this in NYC and the surrounding area.

4. I see that kind of stuff on Pinterest sometimes.

At least that shelf looks like it locks.
