When storing firearms and ammunition, you should?

Store them together for easy access
Lock the firearms and store ammunition separately
Keep them in your vehicle for convenience
Hide them under your bed for quick access

The correct answer is: Lock the firearms and store ammunition separately

When storing firearms and ammunition, it is crucial to prioritize safety and prevent any unauthorized access, especially by children or individuals who are not trained in firearm use. By locking the firearms and storing ammunition separately, you ensure an additional layer of safety. This measure helps prevent accidents and misuse of firearms, as individuals will not be able to easily access a functional weapon when ammunition is stored separately. It is always recommended to store firearms and ammunition in separate secure locations, as stated in choice B. Storing firearms and ammunition together (choice A), keeping them in your vehicle (choice C), or hiding them under your bed (choice D) are unsafe practices that may lead to accidents, theft, or unauthorized access.
