|Updated:

The Department of Justice has announced a new rule about how licensed sellers must store firearms, set to take effect on Feb. 3.

The new rule implements the existing Gun Control Act requirement that imposes strict licensing and regulation on the firearms industry, and states that federal firearms licensees (FFLs) that sell firearms to the general public must certify that they have secure gun storage or safety devices available.
