Keeping weapons at home: 5 rules for safety

Knowing how to keep weapons at home in the correct way is fundamental to ensuring that the sporting or defensive tools you choose to keep in your home environment never pose a risk to you or your family, but not only: Italian law, in fact, provides for the obligation to safely store pistols and rifles to prevent misappropriation and misuse.

Here are five simple points to summarise how to keep guns safely at home:

• never leave your firearms in a place accessible to unauthorised persons;
• when storing firearms, always make sure they are unloaded;
• always keep ammunition in a separate place;
• check that stored weapons have the safety catch on;
• choose a burglar-proof safety cabinet.

Weapon storage in the home: safes and cabinets

To ensure an optimal level of safekeeping, weapons in the home and ammunition should always be stored within a solution characterised by the highest levels of security.

In Italy, in fact, it is not only members of the police force who own firearms: in our country, more than four hundred thousand people are licensed to carry firearms, and each of them should have an armoured cabinet or gun safe at home to minimise the risk of misuse, theft or damage.
