In this case, I think a really clever hiding spot somewhere in the interior of your vehicle would be the safest option. You just need to be able to be very discreet about hiding it in case somebody is watching you as you park and leave your vehicle.

A gun you're comfortable giving to a thief.

Not everyone lives in Harlem

Nobody considers Denton, TX to be "Harlem" .... yet.

But can't tell you how many reports I took of guns stolen out of vehicles. Happens all the damn time.

---

Not Harlem but damn sure has become Austin north.

Yeah, I'm glad to be out

Just hide it in your work boots. Theives won't touch work boots for nuthin.....

Not sure why all these dudes feel like they need to offer "advice" not asked for. 2 pages worth of Karens.

Glock 43x

I don't think there has been any advice that's out of line, Karen.

Unless you plan on getting into many conflicts, one that shoots bullets.
If you cant keep it loaded and chambered, dont bother you will never have time to use it!

A similar recommendation would be the Andy Dufresne method, although I recommend using a Princeton Review SAT Prep book

Your vehicle is not a secure holster. So first get a secure vault in the vehicle..
Then you realize it won't be easily accessible....so accept that.
I carry constantly. IWB Springfield HDS 45....in the car....on the couch....dinner table whatever. I don't notice it anymore.

I know someone who had their firearm stolen out of their vehicle and used in a crime on someone they love. Don't be that guy.

Damn! Sad

He asked for gun recommendations, not a lecture.

Glock 19.... You want something that will actually work when the trigger is pulled.

I like an old pump shotgun. Brand doesn't really matter for a truck gun.

Not saying I break the law......

But 95% of the time I see a 30.06 it is not valid signage as it is not at every door....
Additionally.... I feel their is a greater chance of getting mugged to or from than getting checked.... or a greater chance of losing it to a car break in specialist than getting checked.

Not saying I do and not saying I don't but I don't leave handguns in the car for 30.06..... I'm allegedly willing to face the penalty rather than leave it in the car.... in theory. Allegedly.

....even at schools.

Some people...and I won't names because I may or may not know anyone specifically who does this...just ignore the signs and subscribe to the theory that if they don't have metal detectors then they don't really care that much.

True story...a buddy of mine once had his truck stolen from his driveway and his Bible was in the front seat. A few days later he came home to find the thieves had returned and placed his Bible on the steps of his front door. Never found the truck, but I guess they felt guilty about stealing the Bible.

Play the long game. Keep a replica gun in your truck in the console and put an air tag inside the magazine. When it gets stolen the bad guy can't inflict harm with it and when you discover it's stolen just show the location of the air tag to cops.

Also, join the FBI as a part time consultant and maybe the airline will let you carry concealed on flights.
