     STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT made this 29th day of October, 1996 by SAF
T LOK INCORPORATED, a Florida corporation (the "Company"), in fa-
vor of J. THOMAS SMITH (the "Holder").

     AGREEMENT:

For  good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency
of  which are hereby acknowledged, the Company has agreed,  among
other things, to grant to Holder the Option (as herein defined).

      1.    Grant.  The Company hereby grants to Holder the right
to  purchase  one hundred thousand (100,000) newly-issued  shares
(the  "Shares")  of the Company's Common Stock, $0.01  par  value
(the  "Common Stock"), exercisable at any time and from  time  to
time through December 31, 2001 (the "Option").

     2.   Exercise Price.  The exercise price per Share for which
all  or any of the Shares may be purchased pursuant to the  terms
of the Option is seven dollars ($7.00) (the "Exercise Price").

     3.   Exercise.  The Option may be exercised by the Holder as
to  all or in increments of ten thousand (10,000) Shares (or  the
balance of the Shares if less than such number), upon delivery of
written notice of intent to exercise in the form attached  hereto
as  Exhibit  "A"  to the Company at the following address:  18245
S.E. Federal Highway, Tequesta, Florida 33469, or such other  ad-
dress  as the Company shall designate in a written notice to  the
Holder, together with this Agreement and a check payable  to  the
Company  for  the aggregate Exercise Price of the Shares  so  pur
chased.   Upon exercise of the Option as aforesaid,  the  Company
shall, as promptly as practicable, and in any event within thirty
(30) days thereafter, execute and deliver to the Holder a certif-
icate  or  certificates for the total number of whole Shares  for
which the Option is being exercised.  If the Option shall be  ex-
ercised  with respect to less than all of the Shares, the  Holder
shall  be entitled to receive a new Agreement covering the number
of  Shares in respect of which the Option shall not have been ex-
ercised, which new Agreement shall in all other respects be iden-
tical  to this Agreement.  The Company covenants and agrees  that
it  shall pay when due any and all state and federal issue  taxes
which may be payable in respect of the issuance of the Option  or
the issuance of any Shares upon exercise of the Option.

      4.    Covenants  and Conditions.  The above provisions  are
subject to the following:

          (a)  Neither the Option nor the Shares have been regis-
tered  under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the  "Securi
ties  Act")  or any state securities laws (the "Blue Sky  Laws").
The Option has been acquired for investment purposes and not with
a view to distribution or resale and may not be pledged, hypothe-
cated,  sold,  made subject to a security interest, or  otherwise
transferred without (i) an effective registration statement under
the Securities Act and applicable Blue Sky Laws, or (ii) an opin-
ion  of  counsel, which opinion and counsel shall  be  reasonably
satisfactory to the Company and its counsel, that registration is
not  required  under the Securities Act or under  any  applicable
Blue  Sky  Laws.  Transfer of the Shares issued upon the exercise
of  the Option shall be restricted in the same manner and to  the
same  extent as the Option and the certificates representing such
Shares shall bear substantially the following legend:

     THE  SHARES OF COMMON STOCK REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFI
     CATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES  ACT
     OF  1933,  AS  AMENDED (THE "ACT"), OR  ANY  APPLICABLE
     STATE  SECURITIES LAW AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED  UNTIL
     (I)  A REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT OR SUCH AP-
     PLICABLE  STATE SECURITIES LAW SHALL HAVE BECOME  EFFEC
     TIVE  WITH  REGARD THERETO, OR (II) IN THE  OPINION  OF
     COUNSEL  ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY, REGISTRATION  UNDER
     THE  ACT OR SUCH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAW IS NOT
     REQUIRED IN CONNECTION WITH THE PROPOSED TRANSFER.

The Holder agrees to execute such other documents and instruments
as  counsel for the Company reasonably deems necessary to  effect
the  compliance of the issuance of the Option and any Shares  is-
sued  upon  exercise  of the Option with applicable  federal  and
state securities laws.

           (b)   The Company covenants and agrees that all Shares
which  may be issued upon exercise of the Option shall, upon  is-
suance  and  payment therefor, be legally and validly issued  and
outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable, free from  all  taxes,
liens, charges and preemptive rights, if any, with respect there-
to  or  to the issuance thereof.  The Company shall at all  times
reserve and keep available for issuance upon the exercise of  the
Option  such number of authorized but unissued shares  of  Common
Stock as will be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of the
Option.

     5.   Transfer of Option.  The Option may not be transferred,
in  whole or in part.  In the event of the death or final  deter-
mination  of legal incapacity of the Holder during such  time  as
the  Holder shall possess the Option granted hereunder, the  per-
sonal  representative of the Holder may, for a period  of  ninety
(90)  days following the date of death or final determination  of
legal incapacity, exercise the Option to the extent that the Hol-
der was entitled to exercise the Option on such date.  Any person
so  desiring to exercise the Option shall be required, as a condi
tion  to  the  exercise of the Option, to furnish to the  Company
such  documentation as the Company shall deem necessary  to  evi-
dence the authority of such person to exercise the Option on  be-
half of the Holder.

     6.   Adjustment Upon Changes In Capitalization.

          (a)  If all or any portion of the Option shall be ex-er
cised  subsequent  to any stock split, stock dividend,  recapital
ization,  combination of shares of the Company, or other  similar
event occurring after the date hereof, then the Holder exercising
the  Option shall receive, for the aggregate price paid upon  the
exercise, the aggregate number and class of shares which the Hol-
der  would have received if the Option had been exercised immedi-
ately  prior  to  such stock split, stock dividend,  recapitaliza
tion, combination of shares, or other similar event.  If any  ad-
justment  under  this  paragraph 6(a) would create  a  fractional
share of Common Stock or a right to acquire a fractional share of
Common Stock, such fractional share shall be disregarded and  the
number  of shares subject to the Option shall be the next  higher
number of shares, rounding all fractions upward.  Whenever  there
shall be an adjustment pursuant to this paragraph 6(a), the  Com-
pany  shall forthwith notify the Holder of such adjustment,  set-
ting  forth  in reasonable detail the event requiring the  adjust
ment and the method by which such adjustment was calculated.

          (b)  If all or any portion of the Option shall be ex-er
cised  subsequent  to  any  merger,  consolidation,  exchange  of
shares,  separation, reorganization or liquidation of the Company
or  other similar event occurring after the date hereof, as a re-
sult  of  which shares of Common Stock shall be changed into  the
same or a different number of shares of the same or another class
or  classes of securities of the Company or another entity,  then
the Holder exercising the Option shall receive, for the aggregate
price paid upon such exercise, the aggregate number and class  of
shares  which  the Holder would have received if the  Option  had
been  exercised  immediately prior to such merger, consolidation,
exchange of shares, separation, reorganization or liquidation, or
other similar event.  If any adjustment under this paragraph 6(b)
would  create a fractional share of Common Stock or  a  right  to
acquire a fractional share of Common Stock, such fractional share
shall  be  disregarded and the number of shares subject  to  this
Option  shall  be the next higher number of shares, rounding  all
fractions upward.  Whenever there shall be an adjustment pursuant
to  this  paragraph 6(b), the Company shall forthwith notify  the
Holder of such adjustment, setting forth in reasonable detail the
event  requiring the adjustment and the method by which such  ad-
justment was calculated.

      7.   Notices.  The Company shall provide the Holder with  a
copy  of any notice that the Company is required to provide those
persons holding shares of the Common Stock on the same date  such
persons receive such notice.

      8.   Loss, Destruction, Etc. of Agreement.  Upon receipt of
evidence  satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft,  mutila
tion  or  destruction of this Agreement, and in the case  of  any
such  loss, theft or destruction, upon delivery of a bond of  in-
demnity  in such form and amount as shall be reasonably satisfac-
tory  to  the  Company, or in the event of such mutilation,  upon
surrender  and  cancellation of the Agreement, the Company  shall
make  and deliver a new Agreement of like tenor in lieu  of  such
lost,  stolen,  destroyed or mutilated Agreement.  Any  Agreement
executed  and delivered under the provisions of this paragraph  8
in lieu of any Agreement alleged to be lost, destroyed or stolen,
or  in lieu of any mutilated Agreement, shall constitute an orig-
inal contractual obligation on the part of the Company.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company and the Holder have executed
this Stock Option Agreement as of the date first above written.
