    Anything regarding storage is essentially unenforceable until after a tragedy has occurred.

    One could require a receipt or proof of purchase for a safe or a lock when buying a gun.

    It also implies that everyone’s situation at home allows them 1) to purchase two safes and 2) to have room for two safes and 3) limits their ownership of either guns or ammo to the size of that safe.

    That’s intentional.

    It also doesn’t make much sense to have two safes if the person doing the shooting is the one that is buying the ammo and guns in the first place.

    We need comprehensive laws grounded in addressing specific issues

    I was specifically addressing teenagers access to their parents guns, specifically to prevent school shootings.

    As for operating under a license, what would that do beyond the existing restrictions for procuring firearms? Do they expire and what would happen then?

    Like a car license. You may not be checked all the time, but every once in a while and it’s a crime to not have it if you’re driving.
