Great work but Not in Mass
What if there was a Trigger Lock in place ?
The OP realizes Quick Access is not possible; that's not the goal.
The goal is Theft Prevention when the OP enters the Post Office, maybe a Bar (illegal in some states to CC in a Bar), etc.
Still need to meet the storage laws - glove box, center console even locked I don't believe cuts it. Section 131L - never tried and don't think I want to be the test case either.
Trigger lock is lawful for storage.
Trigger lock is not lawful for transportation. And it had to be unloaded for transportation.
Yes correct , I just don't know if the law looks at a glove box or console which both can be locked the same was as a lock box under the seat. I've read plenty but never got a good answer about storage in a car.
Does anyone know if they make simplex lock versions of those little cable-fastened boxes you put under your car seat?

No idea, but this is a Simplex Lock:

I think in Reyes, that correction officer got arrested for storage in his glove box. Not sure if it was locked though?

I'd bet LEO's get bent out of shape by Glove Boxes and Consoles just because who locks those things ?
It's likely a rare event they witness a Driver using a Key in those places.
I'm not certain the firearm needs to be unloaded, but do it anyways. LEO's rarely know the law, and one may think it has to be unloaded.
99% of the time when people get in trouble is when they reach for the Registration and a gun falls out.
So if I go to the range with my AR and it has a cable lock through it and inside a gun case, am I legal or not ?

Does anyone know what the company is that makes the safes to fit in the console of you vehicle?
What options do you use to secure your weapon in your vehicle?

I don't know the brand, but I saw one such safe at a gun show that came complete with a pre-printed sticker on it advising that the owner does not grant consent to search of the locked container and that a warrant is required. Although this probably won't stop a cop on a fishing expedition, it would make it harder to successfully argue consent was given.Does anyone know what the company is that makes the safes to fit in the console of you vehicle?
I have one that I use all the time made by GunVault (I think). Although it isn't a Simplex lock, it has combo dials so no key is needed, if that's your need. I hate having things with keys, so that's why I went with this one, and I can use it in my truck, or take it when I travel. Bought at my LGS for $20-$30.
