Thread: Firearms storage question - shotgun forend removal

The original question was:
"Just had my security checked and the inspector told me that break action shotguns must be stored without forends attached. I have never seen nor heard of this through multiple inspections. Is this true?"

That is not required by the Arms Act and clearly incorrect.

There are lots of things you can do to improve security however that is a personal decision, not a legal requirement.

(and living in the country we leave the keys in all our vehicles and I have no idea where the house keys are!)
