Abstract

A firearm safety system restricts the use of the firearm by reference to biometric data received by a sensor (23) coupled to the firearm trigger (26). The biometric data is compared to at least one record of biometric data associated with a permitted user to determine whether firearm actuation is permitted. Firearm actuation is controlled by an anchor (24) that is pivotally coupled to the firearm trigger (26). Firearm actuation is prevented when the anchor is extended between the trigger (26) and the trigger aperture (21). Firearm actuation is permited when the anchor (24) is retracted in response to a positive identification by the sensor (23).
