You can ditch the trigger locks if that safe locks , you can fit 4 more in there. Every canadian should have an sks

Also don’t need a trigger lock while transporting if it’s non restricted

Just be careful, make sure to confirm with you local hunting seasons. Some restrictions can get added if you don’t have it locked or in a case during certain seasons

You can also store ammo with gun in cabinets or safes.

I store all of my rifles with trigger locks inside the cabinets.

I figure that I'm better safe than sorry. I don't want some twinky horse cop accusing me of unsafe storage. I don't have enough money to fight the charge.

My ammo is locked cases in another room. I do have some Spam cans still in wooden cases but they're not easily opened without tools.

Overkill? Yes.

I do the same thing, my firearms are always double locked. Like you said, better be safe than sorry.

If a castle law was ever passed (and pigs are flying), would you change how you store them ?

I'm not sure about this.

I like the idea of being "ready" but I don't trust that my grandkids would obey the "Do Not Touch" rule. I have a couple of cans of wasp spray handy, never know when the murder hornets might show up.

I have relatives in Missouri and Arizona and they're comfortable having loaded pistols in their bedside tables.
