Abstract
A tamper resistant trigger blocking device for weapons having a trigger guard featuring a pair of blocking members that cover the opposite sides of the trigger guard preventing entry into the trigger area. The two blocking members are clamped together by a pair of oppositely disposed combination locks each of which has a plunger in the other blocking member that is grasped by the combination locks. Movement of the blocking members in the plane of the trigger guard is minimized by a plurality of indexible rods in one of the blocking members that are engageable with both sides of the trigger guard to prevent that movement. The user adjusts the positions of these rods to fit the user's trigger guard size and shape.
