An unsecured firearm handled by an unsupervised and curious child can
result in deadly consequences. Under certain circumstances, the parent
of a child who gains unlawful access to an unsecured firearm may be
charged with the crime of Making a Firearm Accessible to a Child, Texas
Penal Code.
Gunlocks are available at the Police Department
for anyone who is interested. You may also stop any police officer and
they will provide you with one. Help us protect kids from accidental
firearms injuries and deaths. Keep your guns and ammunition locked and
away from children.
