I keep a 642 in my Speedo....
Will this pass legal muster? Going in the water at the beach and leaving the firearm in a beach bag in one of those small handgun safes. I have one with a Combination lock. Thanks
I would look for a beach where I didn't think I needed to carry my gun.
It's probably enough to meet the requirements of § 131L, but you could be open to a negligence claim. In Jupin v. Kask, where a woman was found negligent for giving her son a key to the house where the father had guns stored (the son took a gun and shot somebody with it), the court ruled that "a defendant owes a duty of care to all persons who are foreseeably endangered by her conduct".

I'm perplexed as to what tactical situation you're trying to prepare for. What's your threat model and why does having a gun on the shore while you're in the water help you fight that threat?

Note, however, that in Jupin v. Kask the judgment wasn't against the owner who had stored the firearm, but against the homeowner who had allowed her emotionally disturbed son access to the home in which she knew that guns were stored. Nonetheless, it definitely wouldn't be a particularly smart idea for numerous reasons.

The real question here is a 9mm enough to take out a shark?

I can't believe the responses... Nothing bad ever happens at the beach, right ?
You could put it in a ziplock bag and that in some kind of tactical fanny pack made for swimming and you're good to go.
I have off-road stickers to 3 beaches on the Cape so I've become spoiled over the years. Rarely do I ever actually have to get out of my car and lug a bunch of stuff down to the sands. Air the tires down, put it in 4x4 and cruise to the desired spot next to the dunes. Unload chairs, coolers, grille, table, horseshoe set, logs and kindling for the fire pit, fishing pole, bait, Coleman lantern and then plop down with sweat already running down my face.

Very quotable.... I'm stealing that for later...If you're going to stick your head in the sand, I supose the beach is as good a place as any to do it.
You know, as a negligence claim (criminal or civil), I'm not sure I have a problem with this...It's probably enough to meet the requirements of § 131L, but you could be open to a negligence claim.
