First of all, you are going to have to keep your firearm out of the reach of children so they would not have possession of the gun. A good place to put it would be on top of the shelf out of children 's eyesight, and do not keep in under a pillow because whenever you are sleeping, you heads could move a little bit and the weapon would go off. Now another important fact of firearms are to have the gun unloaded whenever it is put away. It should be unloaded because if something happens and it slips, it could fire anywhere. You would have to put the gun into a case because the case has ammunition holder so if you would have to ever use the weapon/firearm, you would have it close by.
