Which of the following statements about storing firearms in a home with minors is true according to Connecticut law?

  1. Firearms must be stored unloaded and locked, regardless of the presence of minors

  2. Firearms can be left out in the open if they are unloaded

  3. There are no specific storage requirements in homes with minors

  4. Firearms must be stored such that they are inaccessible to anyone under the age of 16

The correct answer is: Firearms must be stored such that they are inaccessible to anyone under the age of 16

In Connecticut, it is a legal requirement for firearms to be stored in a way that renders them inaccessible to individuals under the age of 16. This law is in place to prevent accidental shootings or injuries involving minors who may not understand the dangers associated with firearms. By securely storing firearms in a manner that restricts access to young individuals, the risk of accidents is greatly reduced. It is crucial for gun owners to adhere to these storage regulations to ensure the safety of minors in the household.
