Gun Locks Save Lives

Gun locks make a direct impact on preventing injuries and deaths from accidental shootings and suicides by restricting access to firearms.

What We Believe

We are for gun safety.

Are we against guns? NO.
Are we against gun violence? YES.

We are a gun safety group that serves our Kansas City community.

Stand With Us
