Abysmal A-Cat security is rampant, particularly among the older generation. In many ways you can't blame them as their flimsy MDF and similar wooden gun cabinets with gaps and a tiny lock passed muster ten years ago and prior. One senior gentleman said to me today, "I've had this gun safe for thirty years and it's done the job so I don't see why I should have to change it". His gun cabinet would take even the dumbest of thieves about twenty seconds to break open. Of course, he's never had the misfortune of being burgled.

Vetting personal need solid, straight forward standards that aren't open to interpretation for A-Cat security. The only way to achieve that is to make a law change that everyone understands. Counting on common sense is a lost cause because many people don't possess it.
