ABSTRACT:
This invention is basically a small plate that is spring loaded that fits under the sear pin of a hammerless firearm. Under normal conditions when the firearm is fired the sear pin will drop into a notch in the plate. The notch is of sufficient depths that the sear pin can fall a sufficient depth and release the spring loaded firing pin and thus fire the firearm. However, if the gun is dropped, upon impact with the ground this plate moves backward and as the sear pin drops, the sear pin makes contact with the ridge of the plate and is unable to fall into the notch and thus is unable to release the firing pin.
