“Warning: children can operate firearms which may cause death or serious injury. it is a
crime to store or leave a loaded firearm in any location where an individual knew or should
have known that an unsupervised minor would gain access to the firearm. Store your firearm
responsibly!”

massachusetts:

“Warning froM THe MaSSacHuSeTTS aTTorney general: This handgun is not equipped
with a device that fully blocks use by unauthorized users. More than 200,000 firearms like
this one are stolen from their owners every year in the united States. in addition, there
are more than a thousand suicides each year by younger children and teenagers who get
access to firearms. Hundreds more die from accidental discharge. it is likely that many more
children sustain serious wounds, or inflict such wounds accidentally on others. in order to
limit the chance of such misuse, it is imperative that you keep this weapon locked in a secure
place and take other steps necessary to limit the possibility of theft or accident. failure to
take reasonable preventative steps may result in innocent lives being lost, and in some
circumstances may result in your liability for these deaths.”

state-by-state warnings

certain states require, by law, that their own specified warning notices, in larger-than-normal
type be conspicuously included by the manufacturer, distributor, or retail dealer with firearms
sold in that state. Sig Sauer sells its products in compliance with applicable laws and
regulations. Because our products may be sold in these states, we include the following:

waRning

“children are attracted to and can
operate firearms that can cause severe
injuries or death. Prevent child access by
always keeping guns locked away and
unloaded when not in use. if you keep a
loaded firearm where a child obtains and
improperly uses it, you may be fined or sent
to prison.”

de fuego guardándolas siepre con llave y
descargadas cuando no las esté utilizando.
Si usted tiene una arma de fuego cargada
en un lugar en que un niño tiene accesso a
ella y la usa indebidamente, le pueden dar
