New York Firearms Safety Course Practice Exam

When handling a firearm in a home with children, using a gun lock and storing ammunition separately is a safe practice. This practice helps ensure that children cannot access the firearm unintentionally, reducing the risk of accidents or misuse. Keeping the firearm on a high shelf, teaching children how to shoot, or hiding the firearm in an obscure location are not recommended safe practices as they do not actively prevent children from accessing the firearm easily. Storing the firearm securely with a gun lock and keeping ammunition separate is a responsible approach to keeping both the firearm and children safe in the home.
