ABSTRACT:
A safety device for a repeating firearm includes a main body which fits in the magazine well of the firearm, closing its outer end. An outer end of the main body is clearly visible at the outer end of the magazine well when the main body is properly located therein. A chamber-blocking member movably attached to the main body excludes cartridges from the firing chamber of the weapon and, in one embodiment of the invention, includes a barrier which prevents a firing pin from reaching the primer of a cartridge which may be located in the firing chamber undetected. The chamber-blocking member, in one embodiment of the invention, is pivotably attached to the main body. In another embodiment of the invention the chamber-blocking member is a cylindrical plug attached to the main body by a flexible cable.
