What is a legal requirement for storing a firearm in a home with children in Indiana?

  1. Using a firearm safe

  2. Keeping the firearm unloaded

  3. Using a trigger lock

  4. There is no specific legal requirement

The correct answer is: There is no specific legal requirement

In Indiana, there is no specific law mandating how firearms must be stored in homes that have children. While it is strongly advised for gun owners to store firearms safely and securely—such as using a firearm safe, keeping guns unloaded, or utilizing trigger locks—these practices, although highly recommended for the safety of children, are not required by law. This means that while individuals are encouraged to adopt these safety measures to prevent accidental access by children, the state does not impose legal consequences for failing to do so. Therefore, recognizing the absence of a specific legal mandate makes the understanding of safe storage practices all the more critical for responsible gun ownership.
