A trigger lock for a trigger of a firearm, components thereof, and associated methods. The trigger lock comprises a first guard including a bolt having a catch. The trigger lock includes a second guard comprising a bolt receiver configured to receive the bolt to connect the first and second guards with the trigger between the first and second guards for obstructing access to the trigger. The bolt receiver includes a keeper arranged to engage the catch when the bolt is in the bolt receiver to maintain the first and second guards connected to each other. The second guard includes a shield overlying the bolt receiver and configured to obstruct cutting of the bolt receiver to disengage the keeper from the at least one catch.

A biometric electro-mechanical locking system for a firearm includes a generally hollow main body having a pivot plate that is secured along the first end. A hand grip is positioned along the main body and configured to slide between a FIRE position where the trigger assembly of the firearm is accessible, and a SAFE position where the trigger assembly of the firearm is not accessible. A release button is positioned along the main body and is mechanically coupled to a dual locking assembly that is positioned within the main body. The dual locking assembly including an electromechanical locking unit having a processor, memory, fingerprint sensor and electric servo, and a mechanical locking unit having a mechanical combination lock.

Devices for securing and retaining firearms that include either a lockable firearm cabinet or a firearm securement system. The cabinet includes a receptacle; a locking device and locking mechanism; a spring for biasing the locking mechanism in the locked position; and a bar for overriding the locking mechanism. The securement system includes a wall mounted plate for securing a firearm thereto; a release mechanism that allows the firearm to be removed and electronics for wirelessly communicating with a computer and the firearm to provide information regarding removal of the firearm or firearm cartridge from the wall mounted plate.

Described herein is a physical interlocking rifle or gun magazine that temporarily incapacitates the weapon but allows the owner to quickly remove the safety magazine and insert a usable magazine with live ammunition to respond to an emergency situation. In one example embodiment, the safety magazine includes a biometric actuator that identifies an authorized user of the weapon and immediately disengages that interlocking mechanism in the safety magazine to allow its prompt removal and replacement with an operative magazine.
