With all the overlapping laws, and jurisdictions, some things can get pretty complicated, so much so that many cops aren't sure themselves. However, knowing the hierarchy of jurisdiction, and how superseding works, it's manageable, i.e., the feds set the minimum, local and state agencies can go above and beyond the feds regulations, but can not have less. A state agency's laws/regulations supersede local government...
eemm

ammo can be with gun
ammo can be in magazine
ammo cant be in magazine in gun
and or in chamber

gun must be in locked container
ammo does not need to be in locked container

this is while in transport in public

see calguns
and the various codes
for clarification

best I feel(though I think it sucks)
is to keep gun in locked container
and ammo and mags with ammo
in another separate locked container
like u mention
well you did mention generally speaking

some cops don't know the law
and its better not to have to fight it
just to get your gear back
and or avoid getting shot by accident

if they see that you have a gun
or you admit to it and or allow a search
they can by law inspect it to see that it is being properly stored
and is legal to own

glovebox storage is not a good idea
locking or not

also I think
transporting near schools and fed buildings
can be problematic

be careful out there

while fishing
I would rather carry a spear
and have thought about it a few times
