I apologize if this is rehashing an old topic, but I would really appreciate some feedback on how those of you with hatchback cars transport a pistol and ammo to the range. My understanding from reading the NJSP website is that they need to be in separate containers that are sealed but not necessarily locked.

 

So, what type of containers or bags are you guys using in the real world? Do you haul two totally separate containers? What about keeping them in separate boxes, and both boxes are then put into one range bag?

For me it's handguns in their factory boxes locked and ammo in a separate locked ammo case from cabelas. I guess you could do less bu why do the bare minimum in this state.

I have been using one of these

only because I have it handy

I keep the pistols and ammo in my backpack. Pistols in the main compartment in their cases, ammo in the secondary one. Then throw it in the back of my hatchback.

 

I think the law is really about keeping the gun out of practical reach and use.
