Where should your M4 be stored when you are in a vehicle?

• A. In a certified M4 lock in the vehicle
• B. In the glove compartment
• C. In a locked trunk with no specific device
• D. In a backpack stored behind the seat

Answer: (A)

Storing a firearm in a vehicle should restrict access to authorized personnel and minimize the risk of theft or accidental discharge. The best approach is to use a certified M4 lock installed in the vehicle, with the firearm secured inside that lock. This provides a validated locking system designed for the weapon and ensures controlled access, meeting safety and policy requirements while you’re in transit. Other options—like the glove compartment, a backpack behind the seat, or a trunk without a certified device—leave the weapon more accessible or not compliant with the mandated secure-storage standard.
