The City of San Antonio is investing $100,000 into educating the community about gun safety and a giveaway of gun safe boxes in District 3.

These must-have Insider Deal household items are at unbeatable prices!– June is National Gun Violence Awareness Month and the City of San Antonio in partnership with District 3 Councilwoman Phyllis Viagran and COPS Metro are giving away free gun safety boxes.

The boxes are basic and Viagran said there are others that are more high tech and cost more, so those who can afford that should get them.The safe boxes given away by the city are meant for those who have guns and don’t want to get rid of them, but can’t afford to buy a box. “It’s really for the people that didn’t do the buyback program and turn in their gun because they just thought, well, one day I might need it or I’m going to go to that shooting range once again. We’ll make sure it’s in that lockbox when you do,” Viagran said.Viagran said gun owners who have stickers on their vehicles or signs outside their home to be sure to secure their weapons, since those signs are advertising the fact that there might be guns inside their home or vehicles.
