If it's a restricted firearm, they must be locked up AND disabled.
Most of the stories I read about accidental shootings in the States seem to revolve around a kid just "finding" a loaded firearm. If that's the case, not hard to imagine lots of legally purchased guns being stolen from peoples home with ease.

As far as I know there are no Lock them up laws like in Canada. Heck up until july this year in Alabama you could have a fully loaded ar15 in the back seat of your car (or front) with out any license what so ever. But if you had a pistol, no matter if it's unloaded in the trunk and locked in a nuclear bomb shelter, you must have a license to carry it.
Stupid crap like this is what makes it even worse. We have dumb laws that make no sense that do nothing for safety.
