Creates a new class A misdemeanor for unsafe storage of a firearm where a minor or prohibited person is likely to and does gain access to it, and requires distribution of safe storage materials to violators, so more restrictions and enforcement on firearm storage around minors.
A person is guilty of failure to safely store rifles, shotguns, and firearms accessible to a minor or a prohibited person when: (a) such person stores or otherwise leaves any rifle, shotgun or firearm in violation of section 265.45 of this article in any location where the owner or custodian of the rifle, shotgun, or firearm knows or has reason to know that a minor or a prohibited person is likely to gain access to such rifle, shotgun or firearm; and (b) a minor or a prohibited person gains access to such rifle, shotgun or firearm.

Why the model tagged it this way: The bill primarily addresses firearm storage requirements around minors and prohibited persons, creating a new misdemeanor offense when unsafe storage leads to access by them (restricts storage-minors), downgrading the basic storage violation from a misdemeanor to a violation (expands), and removing explicit ERPO references from the basic provision while keeping prohibited-person coverage (mixed for red-flag-erpo). It also adds data collection on minor injuries/deaths from unsafe storage and requires safe-storage materials for violators, but these are tied to the storage changes. No other tags
