Abstract:
A device for opening, in an emergency, a locked handgun storage container without having to use a key or combination or any tool whatsoever. A sheet of tempered glass is installed in one side of the handgun storage container. A trigger device is installed over the corner of the sheet of tempered glass. The sheet of tempered glass is retained by one or more shear supports. When the sheet of tempered glass is struck by a human fist the shear supports break away and the sheet of tempered glass, which is held firmly at one corner, shatters into many small, relatively harmless pieces, thus allowing access to the enclosed handgun.
