Richard, that's a good question. Actually there's nothing in law here in illinois about trigger locks. My sure about Cook county(Chicago) though. The only thing there is here is about transporting a firearm. They must be unloaded, in a case, bag, or even wrapped, and either locked in the trunk or if up front, be in plain visible sight. Nothing under the seat etc. pistols can be stored in a glove box but still must be secured in a case and unloaded.
I transport my firearms to the range unloaded and in gun bags, and the
ammo and empty magazines are in a separate dry box with a lock on it. No
loaded magazines in the dry box.
I was stopped once for a blown out taillight and happened to be
returning from the range. Told the cop I had an unloaded revolver in a
bag on the back seat, and offered to hand it to him in the bag. He
wasn't interested.
Got a nice deal on a bag for my AR15 5.56/.223:
