gun lock
Firearm safety device
A gun lock is a device that prevents a firearm from being fired, used for safety and to restrict unauthorized access.
Trigger locks clamp around the trigger guard; cable locks thread through the action.
Many jurisdictions require firearms to be stored with gun locks, especially in homes with children.
