I have this one from First Alert, and I recommend it. It's affordable, easy to access my firearm quickly in an emergency, and works reliably. My only complaints are the size, and sometimes the battery compartment cover falls off if I leave the safe open.
I'm saving up / wait for a sale to get this one from Hornady, though. Lots of great features and should work better in my vehicle.
One like this: RPNB Gun Safe, Portable Metal Handgun Safe & Case with 3 Digits Combination Lock, Measures 9.4" x 6.9" x 1.9" Black, 1 Year Warranty https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B07CVFP85H/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_i_gBBCDbH716G9Y
I prefer not needing to worry about a key, and no matter what with the right tools someone could bust into something more expensive. This will keep someone from finding and grabbing it when you need to leave it in the car.
I am not a lawyer.
I take this section as pertaining to interstate transport from the repeated reference "through the state." When I am transporting to the range I am usually carrying a handgun on myself and have my other range guns in an unlocked soft case thrown into the rear of my Jeep. I don't keep them loaded (other than my carry weapon) due to safety reasons (not due to a restriction in the law). For hand guns, I typically have a soft case like this and for the rifles, I typically have a soft case like this, with a range bag like this that holds the range equipment and magazines for the rifles.
I do load the magazines before going to the range because, more shooting less loading.
EDIT: More reason this is referring to interstate transfer here.
EDIT - EDIT: I see that you probably know this was referring to interstate transfer due to the title of that section of law. Maybe it wasn't clear to you that this section refers to out of state residents driving through the state or to a shooting range within the state and does not apply to you as a CT resident.
