Clarifies North Carolina's firearm storage law to include both loaded and unloaded firearms in the definition of unsafe storage.

North Carolina H643 amends the state's firearm storage law to ensure that it applies to both loaded and unloaded firearms stored in a manner accessible to minors. This change follows a court ruling that found the previous law ambiguous. The revised law makes it a Class 1 misdemeanor if a minor gains access to a firearm stored unsafely, regardless of whether the firearm is loaded or unloaded. The law aims to prevent minors from accessing firearms that could result in injury or death.
