I feel that the door pocket or even behind the passenger seat would be best. You could access the pocket behind the passenger seat very quickly if you have longer arms and be prepared to exercise your right to defend yourself, your loved ones, and your property, from foreign invaders, the government, and criminals alike. Just in case. I believe in gun ownership because it takes too long to learn kung fu like Jackie chan.

A majority of people left and right in America are peddling authoritarian government, the individual deserves a defense, in case of the worst case scenario.

I wonder how difficult it would be to fab up a small metal lockbox to bolt in under the passenger seat.

Not to hijack a thread but where can I buy a gimbal system to mount my AR to the top of my windshield?

That being said, I have never felt the need to carry a gun in a car or own a gun.

How about that space behind the lower console make a compartment there? Or a drop down holder from under the instrument cluster?

Its a Right.

Its not a federal law or a state law or a local ordinance or a privilege or a guideline or a suggestion.

Its not a political position or a culture or a way of looking at things.

It is equal in importance to free speech, abolishing slavery, and allowing women to vote.

And never forget; the Second Amendment is what protects the First.

a place for my piece

I'm a newbe on this forum and thank you all for the great information and advice. I am also an old fart retired guy, former SF, Cop(SWAT), Instructor,Teacher, Adj.Prof., Contractor... ad nauseam.
I have carried a firearm for 50 yrs., mostly concealed, and I found your self- presentation can defuse most situations. If you act like a victim you become one. I believe everyone should defend themselves and others when necessary, but just toting a smoke-pole isn't the answer. Become ONE with your weapon, practice every chance you get, and become better every practice or you become complaisant. Learn retention, disarming techniques, and practice drawing from you carry holster(?) or whatever. Learn to identify and neutralize the threat within 1-2 sec. or you become a statistic. It is a mind-set. Showing your **************** and talking **************** is just that. Keep your **************** close and know how to use it. Don't flaunt it! Learn to walk the walk and you will be much happier and safer. Any punk can snatch a smoke-pole from a vehicle in seconds. Stupid Idea folks.

special compartment

What would be very cool is to have the cubby in the front console have a door that looks like an old school equalizer and that moving the levers to the right position (like those combination locks) it would pop the door and slide the gun out, too bad I have soo little time to play with something like that

Also, +986

Idc what stats you state in either direction, philosophically there is no argument to be had for the left. It is a right, just like your right to privacy, and if you sacrifice one right to the government then that gives them allowance to start taking away others.
