This week, the U.S. House of Representatives voted to overturn the federal requirement that federally licensed firearm dealers provide a “secure gun storage or safety device” (e.g., trigger locks, cable locks, gun safes, gun cases, lock boxes, etc.) with the sale and/or transfer of every handgun. The amendment, offered to a larger appropriations bill, was sponsored by U.S. Representative Marilyn Musgrave (R-Colo.), and passed by a vote of 230-191. This legislation has yet to be considered by the U.S. Senate.
