Divided Attention wrote: at 15 months my oldest made "stairs" out of the drawers in our kitchen and was on the counter when I came in from moving laundry from the washer to the dryer. The bottom drawer was tupperware and the next up plastic spoons, utensils, small cups and their lids - she always played in these two, the next two would only open a small bit as they had child locks on them. This is what she was doing when I walked to the other side of the kitchen door for about 90 seconds. Imagine my surprise when a sweet little "HI!"came from the counter top. Fortunately the stove was not on.
My rambling point - start now with your weapon like you will handle it when she is able to reach everything. That way it is a habit that has less of a chance of being missed. JMPHO.
NOTHING is truly child-proof to a sufficiently determined child!

All guns have at least two safeties. One's digital, one's cognitive. In other words - keep the digit off the trigger until ready to fire, and THINK. Some guns also have mechanical safeties on top of those. But if the first two don't work, the mechanical ones aren't guaranteed. - me
