Going abroad for several years? Take a spae pair of locks that you can simply drop into the gun if you have a failure. Not a bad option.

For security, the guns can be packed without locks making them less attractive to a thief and less likely to be used against you.

You can drop the locks out, clean the internals of the action body, clean and re-oil the locks and re-isert. Quite handy in dusty and wet or damp climates.
