Store Firearms Responsibly

Responsible Firearm Storage – WTTA

Responsible storage prevents unauthorized access. Each gun owner defines who is unauthorized for their home. It can mean preventing access to young children, guests, and potential thieves. It can also mean preventing access from themselves in a crisis by asking a loved one to change the safe code or by other means. Responsible storage is often carried out best by storing or staging your firearms in a safe or other locking device. Responsible storage is a big one because we know access matters. Storing firearms responsibly can prevent negative outcomes with firearms like suicide. Walk the Talk America created this resource to draw attention to realistic firearm storage. Throughout our history working with healthcare organizations, we felt that some of these groups didn’t have realistic options for storing responsibly. For example, storing firearms and ammunition separately and using cable locks are not options for many gun owners. We want gun owners to pick […]

By: Valerie Lyons Posted at 8:12 PM, Dec 12, 2023 CINCINNATI — Two Queen City entrepreneurs developed a way to put gun safety in the palm of gun owners’ hands.

RITZ HERALD: Why This OTC Company Has a Better Solution Than Apple’s Air Tags

METALERT IS A LITTLE-KNOWN COMPANY WITH A BIG POTENTIAL (OTC: MLRT) PUBLISHED ON OCTOBER 31, 2022 One of the most debilitating things about neurological disorders like dementia is that there is no cure, no treatment, and no standard form of care. It takes an enormous amount of skill and effort from both family members and caretakers to provide proper medical service to patients. There are few resources in terms of medications or personal safety devices that can provide families with peace of mind. An off-the-cuff solution has emerged as people begin to utilize technology to make life easier for both patients and caretakers.
