Introduction, looking to be a legal gun owner...

[Jpnguyento]

my storage box is bolting / lagged to a concrete floor and wall studs,, in a secure locked closet.. none of my guns are hidden,, to easy for children to find ,, always stored safely

And Welcome,,

Perhaps in my situation, I'm the only person who knows about the storage of a firearm in my home. Safety measures will be taken, storage, gun lock, etc. hiding it... then hiding from my family is the greatest task... My opinion has always been better to have and not need, then need and not have ready to go... My family don't share my opinions, and so you can understand why if I owned a firearm, it can't be in the open...

No. No. And no. Bad idea.

Hello thank you, hope all is well!

There are FAR easier ways to figure out who owns guns than buying off a gun store owner. Lots of people advertise it outright:


Ever seen one of these?

Or, you know.. you could join a gun club. Good chance you'll meet people who own guns there.

But why be paranoid? Just be smart.

1) Get a decent safe, and keep it locked at all times.
2) Don't put your safe somewhere obvious.. like in your bedroom closet. Hide it. Security by obscurity.
3) Don't brag to every Tom, Dick and Harry you meet about the wicked-cool survival arsenal you have.
4) Keep your house locked. Own a dog. Get a home security system.

It seems like it's easier to own a gun if you don't live in a major city... Yes sir safety first if I shall own one, away it goes in a safe and hidden in clever place... But in all honestly criminals are smarter these days, as there are YouTube videos that shows people the best places to hide a gun... I don't talk about fight club sir... House will be locked but wife won't let me own a dog... Home security can work though lol... Cheers!

How so?

Well, at least the government doesn't keep a shopping list of who has what for non-restricted firearms anymore.
Or, at least officially.
