I agree it's not the best place to put the lock. I would think they could lock the top of the holster somehow so you didn't have the lock around the trigger..

Why should they have to lock them anyways????

Because guns have been known to jump from their holsters and go on shooting rampages when the owner is not present. Friggin' guns. I hate when they do that.

That's right. And how can you trust your pilot? It's not like they're responsible or anything.

Thanks for the link. Had some jackass on my other gun forum jacking with me and saying he knew more than the news media and the pilot involved. He got one finger from me and this video.

So..... the same pilot who is trusted with hundreds of lives (possibly thousands more on the ground as well) can't be trusted to carry a weapon without a frigging padlock on it? THROUGH THE TRIGGER GUARD?!?!? It's not like they got Barney Fife up there flying that thing.
