Currently I keep my handgun on me or locked wherever I go. I just wanted to verify that there weren't any laws saying that I had to have a safe or have my AR bolted down somehow. Sometimes I leave one of my handguns on my desk since I'm the only person living in my apartment, so I wanted to make sure that wasn't illegal.

After a quick search I couldn't find a previous topic, so if this is a repost forgive me. Are there any laws that I should know about regarding proper storage of firearms? Am I required to have locks on them or have some way of preventing intruders from having easy access? I have locks on all of my firearms and have them hidden (though that wouldn't do that much good.) Also, are there any laws regarding storage if there are minors in the house? There aren't currently, but occasionally I bring my carry gun with me if I stay over somewhere else. I currently move too frequently to get a large enough safe for my AR 15 to bolt to the floor. Thanks for your time.
