👉 A blocked weapon, also known as a weapon obstruction or obstruction device, is a type of security measure designed to prevent unauthorized access by restricting or blocking the use of certain firearms or ammunition. This can be achieved through various methods, such as using a gun restraint system, a blast shield, or even a physical barrier like a lockable grip. The primary purpose of a blocked weapon is to enhance security in sensitive areas by ensuring that only individuals with proper authorization can handle firearms, thereby reducing the risk of accidental discharge or theft.
