Here's a poor man's method to get relatively good security today:
(NOTE: I no longer recommend this method in pic 1. I'm keeping the pic here because people have already talked about it. See the other method I added below.)
That cable is homemade of materials that cost me less than $3 from my local hardware store. I homemade it because I couldn't find cable that thick that came ready-made.
Remove the magazine. Empty the chamber. Wrap that cable around your seat post and padlock lock your gun to it. Stuff the gun under your seat out of sight. Then, place poopie pants on the floor in front for added security.
I believe this method keeps the gun about as secure, or more secure, than that lock box you can find at Amazon.com for $30.
