59. Some clarifications are needed from you.

In what way does the owner's responsibility for acquisition and storage become problematic? Gun safes are an extremely good option. Lock boxes, if safes are too expensive or otherwise logistically not workable. Cable locks get the job done often for free.

While useful, firearms are dangerous tools. Allowing others unsupervised, easy access to them is no better than allowing children to play with chainsaws.

What is your ideology that you are having a problem applying to real life?
