Been watching a lot of his video's and he talks about the little portable safes and locks mainly. It's worth a watch but be warned he does have some foul language so if you can't handle it don't press play.

The guy is a major prick but knows his stuff. He would be waaaay more popular and professionally utilized if he'd keep his pottymouth shut.

We just bought a biometric double pistol case for MIL that we moved into Assisted Living this last week. Anchored it to a Wire shelf that is screwed to a wall that is not the most secure, but it's gonna make stealing it and the contents more difficult.
I put my print into memory, Wifes print into memory, and could not get MIL's print to take.
I finally asked to look at her fingers. She is as smooth as a baby's butt on her fingers. Zero fingerprints at 85 years old.
There is a key pad for an alternative method to enter as well as an emergency key, so it's the keypad for her.

Ran into the same problem a few years ago with my wife, before she passed away. Her prints were worn down so smooth the biometric function wouldn’t store hers. Also had poor experience with a Hornady Rapidsafe. Looked like a great pistol safe, wouldn’t work even half the time. Had to use the key.

Wife's oldest sister played and taught piano for decades. She was also a teacher that was required to get fingerprints done ever so often. Can't see fingerprints on her either. She would have to be examined and it confirmed that she didn't have anything to be able to see when fingerprinted.

I'm really a fan of the Fas1 safe. 3/16 thick steel, mechanical pushbutton lock that never needs batteries and gas piston door that presents the firearm to you

When I got fingerprinted for my SDA license back in the day, an older married couple was also getting printed for their SDA licenses. The deputy was having trouble getting a clear set of prints from the lady, and asked if she worked in a bank. When she said she did, he said he often saw that with bank or clerical workers--handling papers all day, they wore down their fingerprints, and they'd often have to send them up to the OSBI. I think he was finally able to get a clear set of prints, though.

He was using the new digital method not the old ink and roll which might work better because digital relies upon pixel size and scanning methods. Eventually, the digital will get there.

A lot of those folks that couldn't get fingerprints at the Sheriff's office ended up being sent to the OSBI to let the fingerprint people there do the job. If I remember right, all the prints that they took were with ink and roll, even though we had the digital available to them. So, you are probably right about the ink system.

Those ladies seemed to know all the tricks in getting fingerprints with the ink and roll system.
