Hard or soft gun case? Does it need to have a lock on it?
No, you don’t need a case to transport a gun. You can transport it in a wide variety of ways, depending on the type of gun and the amount of ammunition you’re carrying. If you’re only carrying a small handgun, for example, you could conceivably just put it in your pocket. Larger guns may require something like a holster or shoulder strap. Ultimately, it’s up to you how you want to carry your gun, although certain states or municipalities may have restrictions on how firearms must be transported. For instance, some places require that guns be kept in a locked case when transporting Backingng them in a car. When in doubt, err on the side of caution and consult your local laws.
