The bill would require the firearms to also be secured using one of several methods, including the method involving a steel rod or cable or the method involving a safe or vault, as described above.

If a safe or vault method is used, the bill would require the safe to meet specified safety standards established by the Attorney General relating to risk reduction of firearm-related injuries to children 17 years of age and younger. The bill would also authorize the dealer to secure the firearms by storing them in a shatter-proof or other specified display case, or in a windowless room without a door accessing the outside of the building, or by use of a steel roll-down door or security gate gate, or in a locked steel gun rack.
