Internal component lock

An improved internal component lock for storage containers comprises:

• a body having a hasp space, a keyway and a retaining space, the hasp space, the keyway and the retaining space being joined within said body;
• the keyway having a locking mechanism contained therein, the locking mechanism having a shackle actuated thereby, the shackle adapted to slidably extend from the locking mechanism across the hasp space to the retaining space when the locking mechanism is in the locked position and engaging a hasp extending into the hasp space, the shackle being retained with in locking mechanism in the unlocked position;
• at least two retaining pins having a shaped upper edge adapted to deter drilling, the at least two retaining pins being vertically mounted on either side of the retaining space to retain the shackle therewithin in the locked position;
• and
• a air gap defined by the top of the at least two pins and the body.
