A weapon is an instrument to maim or kill. That is the sole purpose of a weapon.

A firearm is a machine that shoots projectiles. That is it's sole purpose.

A firearm can be a weapon if need be but it is not it's intended role.

It's all in the meaning.

But to answer the original question, I would put a lock on the trigger, then lock the case that it's in and keep it out of reach. i.e in the cargo area under a blanket or some form of cover.

Edited to add- Probably better if you can break down the gun for transport. Still lock the receiver/trigger but if you want to be ultra safe, transport in pieces.

It's all about intent. If you take proper cautions and reasonable measures then there is no intent.
