ABSTRACT:
A locking device clamps an abutment on the lever of a lever action firearm to engage the small of the stock preventing the lever being closed into depressing engagement with a pin on the stock which, if depressed, would disengage an internal safety device disconnecting/blocking the trigger and permit discharge of the firearm. The lever has a handle loop providing opposed, spaced apart rails and the clamp has plate-like clamping jaws with rail-seating grooves locating the jaws on the rails in bridging relation with the abutment extending towards the stock integrally formed by ends of the plates. A key or combination lock engages in a snap action by moving the plates together and biasing springs throw the plates apart when unlocked.
