DOES AN UNAUTHORIZED PERSON ACTUALLY HAVE TO GAIN ACCESS TO MY UNSECURED FIREARM BEFORE I HAVE VIOLATED THE SAFE STORAGE REQUIREMENT?
No. You are in violation of c. 140ยง131L, simply by storing or keeping any firearm, rifle or shotgun in an unsecured manner so that unauthorized access could be gained. As the statue is currently written, if the police responded to your home for an unrelated emergency and saw an unloaded rifle sitting in the corner of your living room, you would be in violation of the law.
