Abstract

A trigger block and tamper notification system for use on a firearm includes a main enclosure assembly with an engagement element receivable through a trigger guard and a slide assembly having a complemental element releasably engaging the engagement element on an opposing side of the trigger guard. A magnetic reed switch is carried within the engagement element and a switch magnet is mounted in the slide assembly adjacent the complemental element so as to be in a position adjacent the magnetic reed switch when the slide assembly is engaged with the main enclosure assembly. A control module includes a signaling element activated when the switch magnet is moved from the position adjacent the reed switch.
