Locking device for installation in a frame assembly of a firearm, and also a frame assembly equipped therewith and a firearm equipped with the frame assembly

A locking device for a firearm, the locking device includes a slide lock for installation in a frame assembly. On the slide lock is a first guiding part to be received in a first receiving slit of a frame of the frame assembly. Also on the slide lock is a second guiding part to be received in a second receiving slit of the frame of the frame assembly. The slide lock can be received in the frame displaceably between a locking position and an unlocking position. Further, the slide lock interacts with a barrel of the firearm such that the slide lock can be received in the frame displaceably in a transverse direction between the unlocking position and a self-holding position. Still further, the slide lock, when in the self-holding position, is secured to prevent it from being displaced of its own accord into the locking position.

Firearm locking system

A firearm locking system (100) that can lock a trigger (30) by remote activation by an authorized user using a trigger lock (102) that can block the trigger (30) of a firearm (10) from being pulled sufficiently to fire the firearm (10). The trigger lock (102) can be advanced forward into the locked configuration and retracted into an unlocked configuration with the use of an actuator (110), such as a motor. Tamper-resistant features can be employed to prevent unauthorized users from disabling the firearm locking system (100). For example, when the trigger lock (102) blocks the trigger (30), the trigger lock (102) can also lock the upper receiver (12) from being removed preventing access to the firearm locking system (102) from the top of the firearm (10). The actuator (110) can be detachably connected to the trigger lock (102) such that when the grip (18) is removed, the actuator (110) disconnects from the trigger lock (102) causing the trigger lock (102) to enter a jammed configuration.
