Thread: New version of the Police's firearms secure storage guidance

Agree that it is lame. You couldn't use that in court with all the soft terms, like 'recommend'. It should really be 'must' and 'shall not' language, and give minimum standards, so you can draw a plan from it and build or buy suitable storage, rather than guess and be found deficient when it is too late.

I didn't hear any announcement by COLFO or any other association about it, so assume it was done fairly low-key without broad consultation? Happy to be proved wrong on this point...

It seems to be a wasted opportunity to potentially make a real difference to firearm safety.
