Safe firearm storage and reports of stolen firearms to law enforcement agencies

Storing firearms locked up has many benefits:

  • Locked up firearms can't be accessed by curious children
  • Storing firearms securely prevents them from being misused for suicide or violence

Another benefit of safe storage is preventing theft.

  • Firearms that are stolen from private owners often end up getting used in other crimes.
  • Keeping guns locked up in your homes and vehicles is a great way to protect your investment AND keep guns out of the pipeline that fuels community violence.
