ABSTRACT:
A gun trigger blocking apparatus to deter children and unauthorized and uninformed adults from being able to work the trigger and shoot a gun, rifle or shotgun. A first body member, adapted to be mounted on one side of a trigger guard, has an opening therein with buttress thread engaging grooves for receiving and releasable holding a locking rod affixed to a second body member adapted to be mounted on the other side of the trigger guard. A key lock is mounted on the first body member and arranged to rotate to an open mode by a key. Once in the open mode, the lock must then be depressed inwardly and at the same time a spring biased safety pin must be forced inwardly to disengage the buttress thread engaging grooves from the locking rod to allow the body members to be removed from the trigger guard. In addition, a second spring biased pin is provided which, when depressed inwardly, prevents the key lock from being depressed inwardly to deter and confuse a child or thief into thinking that it too must be actuated to release the connected body members.
