Ok, but she didn’t own a gun safe. Big mistake.
Yeah, that’s not very smart.
Even “well hidden” is not as good as a floor mounted safe.
The effort required to get at the guns is really not worth it to most.
He could’ve done the same job with a couple pistols he could’ve gotten anywhere. I keep my stuff locked up and I don’t even have kids, but I don’t think it would deter anything that much.
