If you are killed in an auto accident, isn't getting sued in court the least of your problems?
Time for some thread drift, as we've pretty well beaten this subject to death. Where's Dixie and her beating a dead horse?
Regardless, the joke: A young couple about to get married is killed in an auto accident. While waiting at the pearly gates, they ask St Peter if they can get married in heaven. He gets this grave look on his face and says "wait here, I'll be back." About 2 months later he returns and says "yes". So as they're entering, the turn and ask him "what if we're unhappy, can we then get divorced in heaven?"
Of course St Peter blows up at them. "It took me 2 months to find a priest in heaven, you know how long it might take to find a lawyer?"
Sorry, it was just the right time for that joke.
Back to the action and thread. One soft technique for plugging the side hole (the only hole the lock has, as opposed to the slot) is to just fill it with silicone. Use the black or silver automotive stuff, depending on the color of your gun. Put it in from the inside, with a piece of tape (any kind of tape) on the outside. That'll keep it from oozing above the finished surface. If it extends a little on the inside, no one can see it. Then its easy to reverse the process, just push it out.
Chucks advice is good, just don't buy the gun if you'll spend eternity pissing and moaning about it. The reason to buy a gun with the lock is also pretty simple. They're some of the most interesting and useful revolvers ever produced. We all wish we could buy a 329, 357, 386, 360 (I've got one), 396 (I've got 2), etc without the lock. If you can't find one, then do without or pull the lock, simple.
