What is a requirement for storing a firearm in a home with a minor in DC?

Firearm must be disassembled
Stored in a locked container
Kept on high shelves
Hidden in an undisclosed location

The correct answer is: Stored in a locked container

A requirement for storing a firearm in a home with a minor in DC is to store it in a locked container. This means that options A, C, and D are incorrect. Storing a firearm disassembled may prevent accidental firing, but it is not enough to keep it completely safe from a curious child. Keeping it on high shelves or hidden in an undisclosed location may also be insufficient, as children can still find and access these areas. The safest option is to store the firearm in a locked container, ensuring that it is not accessible to a minor.
