The problem may be that even though the locked gunnies is in the
suitcase locked, the suitcase is not locked.

A sticker on the gun, or on the outside of the case - saying "There's
a gun in this one, steal it now!!"

I seem to remember reading that once the gun is cased, locked, and
stickered, you can place it insde another, unmarked case and send it
on it's way without the "Steal Me" sticker showing to casual
observers.
