Exactly

Responsible gun ownership...

If you've got kids in the house, when they are old enough to understand, explain guns and gun safety to them.

While growing up, my dad had shotguns, and handguns. I knew where they were - the handguns were locked up, and the longguns(shotguns/rifles) were hidden in the closet, with the firing pins removed/locked withthe handguns, and with trigger locks on them.

My dad could have left them loaded on the kitchen table and nothing would have happened though. I'd been trained in gun safety and had shot a rilfe, a .22, albiet small, still potentially deadly, from a young age - pretty good shot too

When I decided what gun I was going to buy, the next two weeks - before I bought my gun - went into deciding which safe I wanted to get. I bought the safe before I bought the gun - I don't even live with any small children, have an individually keyed room/lock, etc.


Now, the funny thing about trigger locks is that they don't actually prevent guns from being fired.
