Abstract: In one embodiment, a safety attachment for a bolt snap (e.g., a swivel bolt snap) is provided that prevents unintentional opening of a bolt action gate. The safety attachment includes a body with an integral top ring, an integral bottom ring, and a hollow center cavity. The body may have a convex outer surface that extends beyond a release button of the bolt action gate. The integral top ring may contact the release button. The integral bottom ring may prevent movement of the safety attachment along a shaft of the bolt snap. The hollow center cavity may accommodate the shaft of the bolt snap. The body and its integral top ring and bottom ring may be constructed of a durable, flexible, elastic material that can, in response to pressure on the release button, permit motion of the release button and bolt action gate while increasing the force required.
