You should also take steps to reduce the chances of your firearms being stolen.

We suggest the following:

• Do not "advertise" that you own guns.
  
  
• Instruct your children not to "brag" about your guns to their friends or acquaintances.
  
  
• Do not display your guns in plain view.
  
  
• Do no display stickers or signs on your house or vehicle which indicate you own guns.  The stickers only advertise to burglars that there are guns in the house.
  
  
• Do not leave guns in your vehicle where they can be seen.
  
  
• Keep a record of all your firearms (please email us to receive a free brochure along with a gun inventory sheet)
  
  
• Practice all the basic burglary and theft prevention techniques, such as locking all of your doors and windows.
  
  
• Use a high security gun safe or hidden storage area such as a false wall closet.
  
  
• Check with your insurance company to make sure your guns are covered under your homeowners policy.
