Who it's for
- Lightest lock box with a built-in combination in Best Lock Box for Flying With a Gun – 5 Picks by Lock and Weight: A traveler with one pistol (up to a full-size 1911) who watches bag weight and wants no padlocks; the built-in lock is TSA-recognized, which some owners prefer to avoid.
What we like
- Only 1.6 lb, the lightest locked box with a built-in lock here
- 4-digit combination with 10,000 codes, plus a 1,500 lb rated cable
- SnapSafe lifetime warranty
What to know first
- The built-in lock has a TSA keyhole, so a TSA master key fits it
- Not on the California DOJ list per SnapSafe; no water seal claimed
