Hold My Guns’ mission is to connect responsible firearm owners with voluntary, private off-site storage options, through our national network of partnering gun shops and FFLs, during times of mental health crisis or personal need.
Find a storage locationTo be human is to go through ups and downs. We believe that times of hardship should be met with an outpouring of compassion and camaraderie.
While many organizations use “gun safety” as a cover to take away your rights, our focus is to never compromise rights for the sake of “safety”.
Each HMG Storage Partner is vetted through a process that includes attorney review of storage contract, and proof of licensing and insurance coverage.
Hold My Guns® connects our donors and FFL partners to provide crisis services to their communities.
Offsite storage helps to prevent suicide, accidental shootings, theft of firearms, and stolen firearms used in crimes. Would you like to be a partner?
Sponsoring educational and volunteer opportunities through our FFL partners.
Provide training in suicide prevention for gun owners and firearms professionals.
Cultivating holistic approach to mental wellness including connection within the firearms community, athletic challenges, and mental health resources.
Hold My Guns® is a 501(c)(3) non-profit. While we seek to minimize our operational costs as much as possible, there is a significant amount of work being done to coordinate efforts with our storage partners, legal team, volunteers, community collaborators, and our clients, to ensure that the storage process is a smooth as possible while staying legally compliant. Please consider participating in this mission through your financial sponsorship. Together, we can help save lives, protect property and preserve rights.
Donate to Hold My Guns“We are extremely proud to offer firearms storage to our community via the Hold My Guns program… we saw the opportunity to provide safe, offsite firearms storage without individuals being deprived of their Second Amendment or due process rights.”
“Hold My Guns is the best thing the 2A community has to combat mental health concerns. This program gives people a better chance to seek help and not lose their constitutional right. Out of all the options proposed this is the best way to combat mental health risk in the firearms community.”
“What I love about Hold My Guns is their proactive actions and positions on maintaining one’s 2A Rights when life gets tough. When life kicks your tail, take a “time out” to reset and get yourself together. HMG partners want to make sure your firearms are safe and cared for while you’re taking care of yourself.”
“Everyone goes through tough times and gun owners are no different. Hold My Guns helps connect responsible gun owners seeking assistance with volunteer storage options so they can focus on themselves. Difficult times can be handled without legal avenues that often come with hidden, yet intended consequences.”
“Maintaining our freedoms comes with a responsibility, and even more so, accountability. In the midst of whatever stress we may face, we also want ourselves, our loved ones, and even our possessions to be safe, overall. That includes safe practices, like storage of firearms. It makes me happy to know that there is an organization, like Hold My Guns, working to partner with FFLs nationwide, to offer a ’no stress, no worries’ alternative for offsite firearms storage when/if needed. Hold My Guns’ mission gives me peace of mind knowing that if ever in the event that I may have to store my firearms outside of my home, it’s by MY choice and not through infringements on my individual liberties.”
“I’ve been promoting members of the firearm community as good people that care about their fellow man. Hold My Guns is an example of grassroots advocacy in the firearms community. They recognized a need, then went about creating a solution. I’ve supported HMG from the beginning and I promote them and their mission, it’s a great alternative to turning firearms over to the government, losing your property and possibly your rights.”
“We’re very pleased to offer our 2,000+ members the opportunity to attend the Question, Persuade, Refer (QPR) Suicide Prevention Gatekeeper Training. Too many have been touched by the suicide of a friend, colleague, or family member. As firearm owners, it is important that we learn how we can help those who may be experiencing suicidal thoughts. We are especially grateful that Hold My Guns® is helping with this training. Having an option for firearm owners to retain their firearm rights and firearms while they deal with a temporary condition is a valuable tool to assist with suicide prevention.”
“Active Self Protection is honored to partner with Hold My Guns®, FFL holders, and the gun community at large to find innovative solutions to help people facing challenging situations to take courageous action to protect themselves and their loved ones.”
“Mental health is one of those issues that has affected just about everyone, including friends and colleagues here at HK. We couldn’t be more proud to be working with a network of such great Americans. They are passionate advocates for mental health, with an understanding and respect for the culture of the legally armed citizen.”
“We’re 100% aligned on the mission to support HMG in their efforts to support responsible gun ownership. When we exercise individual responsibility, the entire community benefits. We’re thrilled to see such a positive response to HMG and are excited to see their growth continue.”
“POM Industries financially supports the mission of Hold My Guns® because we want to ensure that our community has the option of voluntary firearms storage, and the peace of mind that goes with knowing firearms are secured in a professional, stigma-free environment”

Read moreWorking together within the firearms community, combined with appropriate community partner alliances, we will raise awareness and promote a self-governance, non-legislative approach to addressing the prevention of suicide, theft, and accidental shootings. We will encourage educational and enrichment opportunities that approach stressors contributing to suicide risk (such as financial wellness, conflict resolution, or re-acclimation after deployment) in a way that is matter-of-fact, helpful, and in the stigma-free environment of partnering gun shops. Isolation and lack of connectedness, which are risk factors for suicide, are holistically addressed as gun shop customers volunteer shoulder-to-shoulder through community service opportunities available through HMG partnering gun shops. It is inevitable that those taking the time to serve others will in turn feel a sense of pride and camaraderie knowing that they are working together to make a difference in their neighborhood.
“Everything we do at STBISC stems from a core belief in the US Constitution and the general principles of freedom and liberty. To that end, there has to be a way for people to store guns safely and confidently in times of need with minimal opportunity for red tape and governmental intrusion — HMG is that option.”
