A locked firearm can still be unsafe, prove your storage plan works before you need it. Check that the safe is properly mounted, the battery or key backup works, and every authorized adult can open it without exposing the firearm to children. Then practice the process with the firearm unloaded and under supervision. If you cannot explain who can access it, how fast, and what happens if the lock fails, the plan needs work. Get free course.
