Safe Storage Basics

Safe storage is a critical part of responsible firearm ownership. A firearm should be secured in a way that helps prevent unauthorized access, theft, misuse, or careless handling.

Why it matters

A firearm that is not properly secured can be accessed by children, visitors, unauthorized adults, or anyone who should not handle it.

What to remember

  • Store firearms securely.
  • Limit unauthorized access.
  • Consider the specific needs of your home and household.
  • Secure storage matters whether you live alone or with others.
  • Storage practices should support safety, responsibility, and control.

G.L.O.W. Tip

Safe storage is not just about where a firearm is kept — it is about who can access it.

Graceful. Ladies. Operational. Well-Equipped.
