It’s a very special week that is near and dear to National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) President and CEO Joe Bartozzi, who joins Fred on the Sportsmen’s Voice podcast to talk about Project ChildSafe® and Gun Storage Check Week. Fred welcomes Joe Bartozzi to the show to emphasize the importance of firearm safety, secure storage, and the myriad of educational resources available to gun owners. Bartozzi shares personal stories and insights on the significance of proactive measures to prevent accidents and misuse of firearms, and they cover the need for responsible gun ownership to protect and support our rights, the impact of new gun owners on the shooting sports and firearms community, and the various options available to gun owners for securing firearms at home and in vehicles. Key Takeaways: Project Childsafe®: This incredible program has distributed over 41 million firearm safety kits. Gun Storage Check Week: This initiative aims to remind gun owners to assess their storage practices, and provides education that is crucial for new gun owners to understand secure storage options. Responsible Storage Tips: There is no one-size-fits-all approach to firearm storage; it varies by individual circumstances. However, technological advancements have made secure storage more accessible and efficient. Firearms should always be unloaded when not in use, and cable locks are a simple solution, and vehicle storage is critical, as many firearms are stolen from cars.
