So getting ready for a road trip to California to see my Grandparents. The way I understand Pinko Comie law is a handgun locked into a case with loaded mags not in the gun but in the same case and inside the cab of the car is ok. No mags over 10 rounds. Anyone understand otherwise?

I order a hard side handgun case with number combo lock. I set new combination of numbers and it works. I know you could open this thing with a screwdriver but I checked the lock with off numbers just to check. It has resistance without popping. Just for grins I pushed real hard and it pops right open. Could this be a problem if I got pulled over in California? Driving across all the free states to get there I could have it on the dash if I wanted. Lol. Might be exaggerated a little but....Damn near.

I'll try and not speed and be polite if I do happen to get pulled over. Maybe my comrade won't look so hard.

The headed to Hell part is were going through Death Valley. Only been getting up to 120.
