re: Gun safety question for you baws

I keep a loaded pistol and a flashlight in a touch pad lock box. All of my other guns are in a locked gun cabinet. I trust my kids and they are educated in gun safety and handling. I feel it is the gun owners responsibility to make sure that weapon does not get into the wrong hands. I also do not live in an area that I feel I need to have a loaded pistol just laying around at all times.
