standardized form. The File of Life is then placed on the front

Limited Number of Gunlocks Available
Project ChildSafe is a new
program developed by the National Shooting Sports Foundation and funded by a
U.S. Dept. of Justice grant to ensure safe and
responsible firearms ownership. The goal of this Project is to prevent
a loaded gun from being left unattended in a place
where a child may find it.
Millions of gunlocks are being distributed nationwide through
this grant. The Truro Police Department has a limited
quantity. If you are a Truro resident, and need a gunlock, you can
obtain them in person between the hours of 8AM and
2PM weekdays. These locks cannot be installed unless, in most cases, the
weapon is unloaded, thereby adding an extra level of safety.
For more information, contact
Lieutenant John Lundborn
or
S/Sgt David Costa
at the Truro Police Department.
