ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a tactile cue which provides a safety reminder to the user of a firearm or other trigger-activated device. A tactile stimulus, preferably either an indentation or protrusion, is positioned on the firearm or other device where the user's finger should rest, off the trigger, until the firearm or other device is “on target” and pulling the trigger is appropriate. In preferred form, the tactile cue is placed on one or both sides of a trigger guard or if no trigger guard is present, on the frame or body of the firearm or other device.
