WARNING: Access to a firearm in the home significantly increases the risk of suicide, death during domestic disputes, and the unintentional death of children, household members, or others.

Secure firearm storage is the law in Rhode Island. Rhode Island state law requires gun owners to securely store their firearms any time the firearms are not in their possession or control and to securely store firearms in premises under their control where a child or person prohibited from purchasing or possessing firearms is likely to gain access to them. Failure to securely store firearms as required by law may result in fines and/or criminal prosecution.
