Abstract
A firearm safety device for use with semiautomatic pistols and other firearms which use striker pins to activate a firing pin is disclosed. The invention uses apparatus which selectively blocks the travel or operation of the striker pin to place the firearm in a safe condition. The invention allows for the application of key lock systems to place the firearm in a safe condition and to prevent tampering by unauthorized individuals. In the operation, the safety blocking mechanism operates by preventing the striker from reaching its released position upon application of trigger pressure. The firearm is also caused to be placed in an out of battery condition when selected on and there is any attempt to pull the trigger on the firearm.
