Embodiment Construction

[0024] FIG. 1 represents a version of the block member 30 having a leading end 34 followed by the frangible section 32 then on to a external threads 33 finished with a cap head 38 preferably with special torque features 36.

[0025] FIG. 2 represents a block member 30 of the present invention a safety block employed in a common firearm 90. The frame 10 has an extended trigger 40 having shape 42 with a hole 44 by means located orthogonal to the movement direction 60. Section FIG. 2A represents a section through frame 10 with trigger 40 free position. Frame 10 having an internal threaded hole 12 by means aligned to hole 44. block member 30 leading end 34 located in hole 44 is by means screwed into internal thread hole 12 located in frame 10 having clear hole 14. Illustrated in FIG. 2B a similar section now with the trigger 40 by substantial means pulled in direction of movement shown by arrow 60 thereby causing block member 30 to be bent of fractured at preferably at frangible section 32...

Abstract

The present invention is a firearm safety block device that increases the needed pressure on a firearm trigger required to discharge the first shot. The invention consists of a block member mounted to the firearm and extended to prevent the movement of the firing mechanism. A substantial force great enough to break or shear the blocking member is required to operate the firing mechanism as needed to cause the firearm to discharge. A spent frangible bar may be renewed. When the firearm safety block is not applicable the block member may be removed.
