Do you live in LA, DC or *gulp* Austin? How are you dealing with the knowledge that you’re now on Kim Jong Un’s nuclear hit list? If a new gun safe’s in your future, you need to be damned sure you can help fight off the Hermit Kingdom’s hordes of invaders after the red dawn breaks, even if the electronic innards are frazzled. No worries. Cannon Safe has you covered with their new dual access EMP Locking System. It “combines the day-to-day simplicity of an electronic lock with the long-term assurance of a manual combination lock.” Reassured? Press release after the jump . . .
San Bernardino, Calif. – Safe buyers no longer have to choose between the speed and convenience of an electronic lock and the unfailing reliability of a mechanical lock. With the all-new EMP Lock, Cannon Safe is now the only safe company to offer a dual-access locking system that combines the day-to-day simplicity of an electronic lock with the long-term assurance of a manual combination lock.
The EMP Lock comes standard on all Armory, Cannon and Commander series safes in 2013.
The day-to-day advantage of an electronic lock is that opening the safe is quick and requires the owner to simply enter the combination on the keypad for immediate access.
The long-term advantage of the mechanical lock is that it is impervious to power outage. In the event of an electromagnetic pulse or any disaster that prevents the owner from getting new batteries for the electronic lock – the manual dial on the EMP Lock will still provide access to the contents inside.
“Cannon’s EMP lock is the cutting edge of high security lock technology. It allows the ultimate user experience with the ease and security of a Type 1 high security lock with the peace of mind of a mechanical override, all of this rolled into the ultimate UL Type 1 rating,” said Aaron Baker, president of Cannon Safe.
“At Cannon Safe we have been the drivers of safe innovations and technology advancements since 1965. This is a huge step forward for safes and for the experience a safe owner will have in the future. The EMP Lock will provide the peace of mind you want and deserve but will only find being a member of the Cannon Family.”
Cannon is proud to be the only safe company to offer a lifetime, hassle-free, zero cost warranty on their safes. If a customer’s safe is ever damaged due to a fire, natural flood, or burglary Cannon will cover all costs including locksmith, freight, parts, etc. to repair or replace the safe, even if the owner is not the original purchaser.

Damn I fell hard for that. Now I’m just depressed. Good one guys
EMP my stuff all you want; my safe is opened by a key and I’m too cheap to afford electronic optics so no harm done to my guns really
I might be totally wrong here, but doesn’t just about every electronic lock come with a key back-up anyway?
Hurumph!!! Now where’s my paddle ball?
Bravo Bravo!!!
Maybe I am wrong but isn’t an “ASSAULT WEAPON” by defination , one that has SELECT FIRE MODE ? The Media has given us the WRONG DEFINATION of what is TRULY an “ASSAULT WEAPON”
Walking around with your off side hand pulling the forearm against your thigh must be a cruel joke.
“…caused by the devaluation of the dollar to the point where a $200 investment for an NFA device isn’t as much of a pain in the ass as it used to be”
Hilarious! …I mean… sort of 🙁
He does want to take our guns. All of them. His career has been dedicated to doing that. The universal background check, AWBII, and magazine cap is just a first step in establishing that there is a way to do it. Just wedge that ban in there, wait a decade and ban some more. Once precedence is set, it becomes the legal equivalent of MadLibs -(insert gun type)- to ban anything they can convince the press to allow.
-If he really wanted background checks, he would open the NICS hotline to everyone. Done. Then the conversation would be about making it an internet form instead of a phonecall.
-If he really wanted to reduce gun crimes he wouldn’t even consider rifles. Rifles wouldn’t be on the radar. We would be talking about handguns – if anything. Biden would be touting AR-15’s to replace pistols instead of shotguns over AR’s.
-If he really wanted to reduce violent crimes he would also be spending more time in the blue cities with high crime and shouting at his own voters, “stop letting your neighbors kill each other – you only have yourselves to blame!”
-If magazine capacity truly mattered they would be aiming more for 100 rnd magazines. Stuff so obscure we probably wouldn’t give a damn. (Then they can do their MadLibs game later if they liked, and we wouldn’t have a chance to dial a senator before it was too late.)
Instead we get him trying to label our guns with scary names like: High-capacity, weapons of war. And his arguments are labeled with soft titles like: Sensible, reasonable, deserving. He sees that he may be able to slide a ban under everyone’s nose while they sit there convinced by his charade that it truly is weaponry too deadly, too advanced, too powerful for civilian consumption, and too easy to acquire.
He is dangerous because the press never questions him. They never challenge him. He can have as much screen time as he likes. He’s a marketing expert with a love for convincing the people to give up on the Constitution.
That’s where we suck. We are terrible at marketing. Just when we start gaining ground a madman set us back. Never mind that violent crime has been on a steady decline. Never mind that the rise of conceal carry and the AWB sunset did not result in a sudden national mass murder-fest. We have the facts supporting our cause but the press isn’t interested. We have a Constitutional amendment that declares such bans are off limits! Doesn’t matter to the press. They are not taking Obama to task and asking how his plan is going to work or if it’s even legal. We really need to work on our marketing skills. This should be an easy debate for us to win, but we can’t get the mass media to listen.
Hay if you have a Type1 Electronic Lock on your safe with a Mechanical override don’t you really have an inexpensive mechanical 2 or 3 wheel lock on your safe that is not manipulation resistant and can be over ridden or manipulated open easily.
The lowest security you have on your safe is the security you really have. Regardless of the value or how wonderful the Electronic lock is the safe can be opened by manipulating the simple Mechanical lock? Food For Thought !!!!
I have the EMP lock on my Cannon safe and it has not worked well for me. I have to enter the combination many times for it to open. I can dial the digits quicker manually which defeats the purpose of the electronic lock. I plan to contact Cannon concerning this issue.
