What type of storage is required for firearms in a home with children in Rhode Island?

  1. Locked cabinet

  2. Trigger locks

  3. Safe storage is recommended but not required

  4. Firearms must be unloaded

The correct answer is: Safe storage is recommended but not required

In Rhode Island, it is recommended but not legally required to have safe storage for firearms if there are children in the home. While a locked cabinet or trigger locks can be used for added safety measures, they are not mandatory under the law. However, it is important to note that firearms must always be unloaded when stored, regardless of whether it is in a locked cabinet or with trigger locks. Therefore, while options A and B are potential storage methods, they are not necessarily required by law. Option D is a given and not directly related to the question.
