I think I know the answer to this question, but wanted to get other views:
Is it legal to store my Mauser 1891 rifle unlocked as long as I have the bolt and firing pin removed and locked in my pistol safe? I can always snag a trigger lock, butI figured that since the rifle is effectively disabled, it may meet the letter of the law.
"If not under the your direct control, or under the direct control of some other person with the proper FID or LTC, all guns must be stored in a locked container or equipped with a tamper resistant mechanical lock or other safety device, properly engaged so as to render the gun inoperable by the owner or other lawfully authorized user."
I'm thinking this falls under "other safety device" but I'm not 100%. Any ideas?
