Your vehicle isn’t a lock box.
If it has locks, it sure is.
Why not?
This.
My house is a lock box, too. My safe is a lock box inside a locked box.
Change my mind.
Allowing unauthorized access to a firearm is a serious mistake that leads to thousands of stolen weapons each year as well as tragic deaths each year involving firearms.

Gun theft is a problem. These guns really do end up in the hands of murderers. A 2012 report from the ATF makes clear that “[t]hose that steal firearms commit violent crimes with stolen guns, transfer stolen firearms to others who commit crimes, and create an unregulated secondary market for firearms.”

About 1.4 million firearms were stolen during household burglaries and other property crimes over the six-year period from 2005 through 2010, according to a report released today by the Justice Department’s Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS). This number represents an estimated average of 232,400 firearms stolen each year— about 172,000 stolen during burglaries and 60,300 stolen during other property crimes.
From 2005 through 2010, household property crimes involving only stolen firearms resulted in a total loss of about $27 million per year. The average financial loss when only one gun was stolen was between $400 and $500 per incident.

Other findings showed—
- About three out of four household property crimes involving stolen firearms occurred in households headed by white non-Hispanic persons.
- From 2005 through 2010, the majority of household burglaries (56 percent) or other property crimes (59 percent) involving stolen firearms occurred in the South.
- Households in rural areas experienced a disproportionate percentage of burglaries involving stolen firearms (34 percent), compared to the overall percentage of U.S. households located in rural areas (17 percent).
I have this in my Ram 2500. They make for many different trucks, etc. Very happy with it.
You missed your own point. Unauthorized access isn't allowed access.
Having my property stolen from inside a locked and secured place isn't "allowing unauthorized access"... is it?
Like I said......
Such a lock box is moot once someone breaks a window or in some other way gains access to the interior.
When I was working at a "major national electronics store," I had a young man come in looking at car alarms. He told me that he had just had a $2000 auto stereo system stolen from his vehicle. The alarm he was looking at required two elements, one of which was a magnet, and wanted to make sure they would fit between his door and the door frame of the vehicle. So, we took the alarm outside to his vehicle. It was a soft-top Suzuki Samurai. I told him that the alarm wouldn't help a lot because all anyone needed to get access was to have a pocket knife.
