re: #48 A Man for all Seasons

We have that already. It’s called a trigger lock.

Hmmm…

There is controversy surrounding manufacturing standards, usage, and legislation of trigger locks. While supporters of trigger locks argue that they will save children from dying in gun accidents, critics point to demonstrations that some models can be removed by children with very little force and common household tools. Many firearms can go off if the gun is dropped.

I was envisioning something fancier, e.g. built into the trigger itself, “knows” when the owner’s finger is on it, gun can’t be fired otherwise (meaning someone couldn’t use it even if they wrestled it from you).
