27 states + DC have Child Access Prevention (CAP) laws. Secure storage isn't just about safety—it's about legal compliance. Using a lockbox or safe protects everyone in your home and helps you follow CAP policies. #CAPlaws #SecureStorage #ResponsibleFirearmOwnership

Electronic lock safes offer quick access without keys or combinations, but require battery power and maintenance. Every storage option has tradeoffs—what features matter most for your needs? #SecureStorage #GunSafety

Secure storage prevents unauthorized access. That's the message from @walkthetalkUS President Mike Sodini. More gun owners investing in secure storage = a safer community for all. #SecureStorage #FirearmSafety #SecureStroageTalks

Biometric safes = fastest access yet. No keys, no combos—just your fingerprint. But, they can be pricey, they need a power source, and dirty or wet hands can affect getting an accurate scan. Tradeoffs matter. Would you use one? #SecureStorage #GunSafety

🔒 Not all gun safe locks are equal. UL certifications help you pick a reliable one—because securing your firearms starts with a lock you can trust. #GunSafety #SecureStorage #PausetoProtect

Great perspective from Kids to Kings. When firearm retailers promote secure storage, they do more than sell products - they save lives. Every firearm owner deserves to know their storage options. #ResponsibleOwnership #GunSafety
