Electronic Gun Locks-Vehicle

[A1Paracord]

Hey guys,

So I'm wanting to install a long gun mount in my vehicle for transportation and defense purposes. My question is about the legality of electronic gun locks such as those that they install in police cars, SWAT vehicles etc. I know that I can have a long gun (shotgun, AR) in my vehicle but I don't know if I can legally purchase and install an electronic activated lock to the mount that I may install. Does anyone know what the laws are on this? My opinion is that it would be more secure like that than it would be in a case or something else in the vehicle.

Thanks in advance for replies/advice!

There are no legal restrictions on gun locks in Indiana. No license/permit/credentials required to own/purchase/install/use gun locks.

I'm showing my age but I remember when we had long guns in a rear window rack in our trucks.

I'm showing my age, but I remember when my parents used to reminisce about when they used to have long-guns in the window racks in their trucks.

I'm showing my age because I can remember seeing trucks like this in the student parking lot of my high school!

I'm showing my age. I've seen maybe 5 in my lifetime. But yet I love them so.

You must be a young buck then.

My grandfather said they had a gun rack in the back of the classroom for all of the kids that hunted before and after school. Oh the humanity.

this one, rifle racks - RIFLE RACK - RTD

I have seen that one. It's really cool looking but I'm trying to stay on the cheaper side. My plan right now is to build the stand myself and buy the lock (prob a Santa Cruz SC 5) and mount it to the stand I make. I'm still trying to work out how to mount it inside the car though??

I'm showing my age when I see....er wait, what was the question?

I not only remember gun racks in the trucks at school, but I remember half the gun racks were made in wood shop in school. My math teacher actually finished his class one day by bringing a bolt action rifle to show " the boys" in the class because they might find his new hunting rifle interesting. This was in Indiana, but he hunted in KY with is 270 rifle. Good Times. As a friend of mine says when we recall "the good old days" is "These will be the good old days tomorrow".
