The NSSF (National Shooting Sports Foundation) is actively working to enhance community safety through various initiatives. These include partnerships with law enforcement and government agencies to promote firearm safety, strengthen background check systems, prevent thefts from gun stores, deter straw purchases, and support suicide prevention efforts.

The firearm industry actively collaborates with policymakers and law enforcement nationwide to implement safety programs aimed at reducing firearm accidents and keeping guns out of the wrong hands. These initiatives include distributing millions of gun safety kits, often featuring cable locks, to promote responsible storage of firearms not in use. This proactive approach has contributed to firearm accidents reaching all-time lows, even as gun ownership increases.

The NSSF actively partners with law enforcement agencies on initiatives like 'Real Solutions for Safer Communities' to address gun violence and suicide. Programs such as 'Operation Secure Store' and 'Project Child Safe' demonstrate the industry's commitment to reducing crime and promoting safe firearm handling through education and resource provision to retailers and the public.

This video celebrates 20 years of Project ChildSafe, an NSSF initiative focused on firearm safety. Since 1999, they have partnered with numerous law enforcement agencies and organizations to distribute over 38 million firearm safety kits containing literature and cable-style gun locks across the US. The program's impact is highlighted by a significant decline in fatal firearms accidents between 1999 and 2017, as reported by the CDC.
