Seriously, if you have children visiting, other than what you might securely carry on your person, all other firearms need to stored in a locked safe. If you don't have a safe, all firearms should be unloaded, rendererd inoperable, separated from any ammo, and stored out of sight and reach. Please never depend on any firearm "safety" device to be child proof.
