There are several of those cases working their way through the court

as we speak.

Florida? $25 fine, right?

2d degree misdemeanor

$500 and 60 days in jail for the first offense, if there are no other

charges present.

If you knowingly provided a weapon to a minor or anyone else who was

prohibited from having one you can get up into felony territory.

Here's the law in MA:

Section 131L. (a) It shall be unlawful to store or keep any firearm,

rifle or shotgun including, but not limited to, large capacity weapons,

or machine gun in any place unless such weapon is secured in a locked

container or equipped with a tamper-resistant mechanical lock or other

safety device, properly engaged so as to render such weapon inoperable

by any person other than the owner or other lawfully authorized user.

For purposes of this section, such weapon shall not be deemed stored or

kept if carried by or under the control of the owner or other lawfully

authorized user.

(b) A violation of this section shall be punished, in the case of a

firearm, rifle or shotgun that is not a large capacity weapon, by a fine

of not less than $500 nor more than $5,000 or by imprisonment for not

more than one year, or by both such fine and imprisonment, and in the

case of a large capacity weapon or machine gun, by a fine of not less

than $1,000 nor more than $10,000 or by imprisonment for not less than

one year nor more than ten years, or by both such fine and imprisonment.

That's just for them finding out you didn't secure them as required.

The last sentence in (a) gives you an easy out.

Except that if you want to have quick access to one at night while you
sleep, it sounds like you must sleep with a holster. Having it under
the bed (12 gauge) or in a night stand drawer (9mm) doesn't sound like
it qualifies for that exemption. It has to either be locked up, or in
your hands/on your belt.

Refer to John.. he has it... it's all leading to confiscation, the
desired outcome. Problem is libs don't ever compromise, they just think
they are smarter than you..

Oh, man, there goes that jawbone again!

What a childish post.
