What should be done with firearms when not in use?

Leave the safety on
Store them unloaded in a locked cabinet, safe, or storage case
Keep them loaded for quick access
Store them in any convenient location

The correct answer is: Store them unloaded in a locked cabinet, safe, or storage case

It is important to store firearms unloaded in a secured location, such as a locked cabinet, safe, or storage case. This helps prevent accidental discharge or access by unauthorized individuals. Keeping the safety on is also important, but it is not enough as it could still be handled or accessed by someone who should not have access to the firearm. Keeping the firearm loaded for quick access is also not recommended as it poses a safety risk, especially in homes with children or individuals who are not trained in firearm safety. Storing firearms in any convenient location is also not advised as it could increase the likelihood of accidents or unauthorized access. It is important to store firearms properly to ensure the safety of both yourself and others.
