Question: When storing a restricted firearm, what is the minimum security measure required?

Answer options: ✅ It must be unloaded, rendered inoperable by a secure locking device, and stored in a locked container or safe.

  • It can be stored unloaded in an unlocked cabinet, as long as it's out of sight.
  • It must be prominently displayed unloaded to deter intruders.
  • It only needs to be unloaded if it's not being carried.

Correct answer: It must be unloaded, rendered inoperable by a secure locking device, and stored in a locked container or safe.

Explanation: For restricted firearms, the legal requirements are stricter. They must be unloaded, rendered inoperable with a secure locking device (e.g., trigger lock), and stored in a locked container that cannot be easily broken into, such as a safe or vault. This is mandated by the Storage, Display, Transportation and Handling of Firearms by Individuals Regulations.
