Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 None that I know of in Arizona, but one is encouraged to be safe with their guns....and the vast majority of people are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sassnetguy50 Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 There are also tax breaks for gun safes in some states. https://firearmsport.com/gun-safe-tax-write-off/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loophole LaRue, SASS #51438 Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 In MA, if not under your direct control, lock it up or face up to 15 years in jail and/or a $20K fine. Notably, NOT applicable to percussion guns. https://www.mass.gov/info-details/mass-general-laws-c140-ss-131l LL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LawMan Mark, SASS #57095L Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 By law, here in Alabama, you could store them on your front porch if you wanted to. However, Alabama is known as "tort hell", and juries are well known for awarding stupid money to stupid people, so civil liability makes it prudent to at least try to secure them. I own two safes and a handgun lock box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Note that Loophole and I are in neighboring states and have wildly different attitudes though folks from Mass move up here because of freedoms and try to convert things.

Southerners go through the same thing. Yankees and Left Coasters move down South to get away from the craziness where they are from- and immediately want to remake where they are now into where they just left. If where you left was so great, then why did you leave? If you liked it so much, why not move back and quit trying to ruin my life, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tequila Shooter Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 None that I know of here. In fact a woman can carry a pistol in a purse without a conceal carry permit. And don’t say it……..no self respecting man in Mississippi would carry a purse , but I guess it would apply to them too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dantankerous Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 None here of which I am aware. But, using one is prudent for many reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michigan Slim Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 No law in Indiana that I am aware of but I (we, my kids and I) keep all ours in safes. My wife wanted me to buy Kaya a cute little ten gun unit. I was choking and laughing at the same time. I didn't know how to tell her how foolish that was. LOL. She got the 25. She can buy another when she moves out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sixgun Sheridan Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 In WA guns have to be secured, but the law is so vague it can mean pretty much anything. Technically as long as you lock the door to your house when you leave it doesn't matter if they're all lying on the living room floor. However if a child or criminal gets ahold of one and the state decides it wasn't adequately secured you're the one facing a jail sentence and fine.

John Kloehr Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Tennessee requires no sales tax be collected by retailers on new gun safe purchases until this summer. This is the equivalent of the legislature handing out 10% off coupons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
