The Second Amendment is just one of the many things that combine to make America a great place to live. Our right to bear arms is one of the few privileges that separate us from the rest of the civilized world. But with every right comes a responsibility. We owe it to our children to keep guns out of reach until they have been trained to respect their power and handle them safely.

Gun safes are essential storage spots for any gun enthusiast, but that’s especially true if there are kids in the household. A gun safe should be kept out of sight – preferably somewhere in the master bedroom. It’s also important to warn children up front about the potential dangers of handling a gun without training. These and other precautions can help prevent a tragic accident.
