1 in 20 adult Coloradans have a loaded gun stored unlocked in their home. This is a risk factor for not only accidental injury, but also for firearms to be stolen, accessed by children or used in a moment of crisis for the purpose of self-harm. If guns are locked and unloaded, it can prevent violence, suicide, and theft.
