Abstract: An improved tamper resistant combination lock with large planar easy to shift blocking slides with spring fingers that fool the lock picker into believing all three positions of the slides are blocking positions, rather than passing positions. The slides block or pass spaced spheroidal obstructions on a plunger. A small bifurcated clip prevents the complete removal of the plunger when all blocking slides are in the pass position. In one embodiment the lock is a padlock-type with a "U" shaped shackle that lies in a common plane with the slides to reduce lock size.

Abstract: A tamper resistant combination lock including a housing having a through bore receiving a locking plunger with a plurality of integral-spaced obstructions thereon, the housing having a plurality of transverse slots each receiving one of two identical blocking slides that snap between three distinct positions, one passing the obstructions and plunger, and two blocking the obstructions and plunger. Lock picking is minimized by flexible fingers in the slides that engage the plunger obstructions when the slides are in the plunger passing position to simulate the slide blocking positions as the lock picker tugs the plunger.

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.
