Trigger locks and the implied mandatory use of them made it in to the best of my knownledge. When a firearm, needed for home defense, must have a trigger lock on it home defence is severly compromised.
I believe trigger locks are only required in the transfer of a gun to a person without a firearms permit, but I'm not sure.
only if you feel it necc to place a trigger lock on your firearm as it lays on the nightstand next to you each night. ;-)
Actually, this is an improvement. Currently a person could be sued if an unauthorized person stole their gun and used it regardless of whether it had a trigger lock or secure storage. This seems to exempt gunowners from lawsuits if they take those steps. Not as good as a total exemption, but better than the current law. There is nothing here suggesting that you need to keep them locked when others don't have access to them. As a responsible gunowner it does behoove you to to lock up your guns in situations where others would have access to them or you are not home. I always lock mine in a safe when not at home.
They must provide the trigger locks to avoid responsiblity, I'm guessing. You do not have to use them.
