I guess I never thought about, how about your action? Locked back or closed? Both my AR's are in the safe open action with a mag in them.
i too don't have any kids in the house and had a few guns stashed in easy access till the neighbor kid started having the cops come to his house, I heard he was threatening to kill himself. So I hid my shot gun and my pistol alittle better, I've been wanting one of those biometric safes but haven't bought one yet. Idk if it's a nation wide law or a state law but if a minor gets ahold of your gun and it's loaded your liable for the out come, even if it's a break in
