It's not the same thing. I was being very specific with my words.

Not just any gun storage, not "provided with" - which doesn't require that the gun is LOCKED when it's sold, only that the option for the gun owner to lock it is provided.

Opt in vs. opt out. It sounds like a small distinction but it's significant.
What's the big push to have the lock installed upon initial sale? All you do is open the case, insert key in lock and remove the lock. You could do that before you even leave the store or when you get to your car.
