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 at the Truro Police Department. |
