Project ChildSafe® and the Moultonborough Police Department would like to remind gun owners to:
- Properly store firearms in the home.
- Practice safe firearm storage options in the home.
- Make certain that firearms in the home are not casually accessible to anyone - especially a child.
Stop by the police department and pick up your Gun Safety Kit provided by Project ChildSafe®. Gun Safety Kit Instructions can be found on this page or by visiting Project ChildSafe® online.
