Buy recommendations Recommendations on new rifle case locks ( Everyday and Airport )

Had some issues with the locks on my rifle case and wanted to replace them. I was hoping for some recommendations on something that could be used for everyday ease and airport. Thanks for any help in advance.

For airport the minimum I use are newer American Lock 1100s that can’t be bypassed. Guns do not need TSA approved locks, you open them when you’re checking in, and shouldn’t be opened again until they’re in your possession at the destination.

Your gun case can be opened without you present while flying. Even if it passed the check at oversized bag drop. Some places might call you to open them or just cut the locks. If they cut the locks to get in you might not get your guns on the same flight.
