Disassembling Your Gun
One weapon in the fight against gun accidents is to actually disassemble your gun before you store it. By taking it apart, you can prevent it from being used even if your child or anyone else gains access to it. To ensure gun safety, however, you should not store all of the pieces together in one place. Divide them up in different locked locations, so even if any portion gets into the wrong hands, it will not cause any harm. This is a particularly good option if you have a collectable gun or one that you don't use but don't want to part with. If you don't know how to take the gun apart yourself, ask your local gun shop or shooting range if you can pay them to do it for you. When this is done in conjunction with the proper gun safety equipment, you can make your home safer.
