Free Gun Safety Locks No Questions

Published on June 20, 2024

Did you know that the Culver City Police Department offers free gun safety locks to the public, no questions asked, year-round? Taking simple steps to store firearms safely can prevent tragedy. The hallmarks of safe gun storage are:

1. Be sure to unload your firearm and store it in a locked box, cabinet, safe, or vault.

2. Secure unloaded firearms with a cable lock or trigger lock.

3. Store the key and ammunition separately from your firearm.

4. Keep firearms locked in a secure location that is only accessible to responsible adults.

5. Check your firearms regularly to ensure they are still unloaded and locked.

A gun lock, also known as a firearm lock, gun cable lock, or a gun safety lock, is a device designed to prevent unauthorized use of a gun. Gun locks and gun safety educational materials are available free of charge at the Culver City Police Department located at 4040 Duquesne Avenue.
