gunswpadmin — Tue, 06 Oct 2026 23:03:17 +0000

In Colorado, community can look like many different things. It can be helping someone load their bike onto their car, letting a neighbor borrow a tool, or texting a friend to make sure they made it home safely.

Preventing gun injuries and deaths is another way we can look out for one another. June is Gun Violence Awareness Month. Here are a few small actions that can make a difference this month and the rest of the year:

• Lock up firearms when not in use.
• Have conversations about safe gun handling and storage.
• Check in on people who may be struggling.

Traveling for the holidays? Take a minute for a firearm safety check:

• If you leave your firearm at home: Make sure it’s secured and inaccessible to others.
• If you bring your firearm with you: Laws change from state to state. Check local laws before you go, and make sure it’s in a reliable, locked case.

Planning to gift a firearm this holiday? Here’s what to know: Make sure the recipient is legally able to own a firearm. Gifting across state lines? The transfer must go through a Federal Firearm Licensee (FFL) in the recipient’s state. Include essential safety tools: ear/eye protection, a quality lock box or safe, or, best of all, a gift certificate for a professional safety course. As a bonus, print out a firearm safety checklist to include with the gift: https://letstalkgunscolorado.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/Lets_Talk_Guns_Colorado_Safety_Checklist-ada.pdf
