Anyone here into firearms?

I also have an extra 30 round glock mag keep in the glovebox... just in case

I just bought a surplus Soviet SKS. Added a Tapco stock and collapsablle butt stock. Chambered in the very inexpensive 7.62X39. I picked up a thousand rounds of Ukrainian ammo and it's even non-corrosive ($0.25 per round) I'll see just how fast I can blast away a thousand rounds this weekend. Fun times!

Where do you all like to mount or store it?

My Bladetech OWB paddle holster actually clips right under the steering wheel and holds in well. Quick access and fairly hidden. I've seen setups in other cars where the holster was custom made to the car. Pretty cool IMO

I keep mine in the paddle holster and slip it in between the passenger seat and the center console with the butt of the gun resting on the seat belt clip. It is fairly hidden or at least blends well and access is perfect as it is in a natural position to grab. When i need to hide it a little more as in when i park i a lot i set it in the rear cubby. Takes no effort at all.

If i'm carrying that day it just stays on the belt.

yeah that rear cubby is perfect for a compact

Is storing the weapon hidden in the car legal where you are or are you figuring no one will ever find out? I am just curious.

car in an extension of the castle doctrine, at least in FL.
with or without a ccw license its legal.
(there changing it from permit to license to avoid confusion on what it actually is)

Didn't know that...pa is strict with legal carry in the car....oh is similar what what I have ready to pa but not quite as strict(just moved to oh ) In,PA without permit the gun and ammo have to be in separate compartments ie gun in car in case or visable ammo in trunk so it is,not easily accessible.

but I think it should be in a case in the glove box that can be readily seen when asked. Should not be hidden under your seat as this would require a conceal weapon permit. Ammo should be in separate compartment.
Which I find absurd.

yeah, your right.
if u have ur ccw license its easier because it just has to be out of sight/concealed.

if u don't have ur ccw license it has to be in something that closes or seals..
like a glove box or center consul with a lid.

But in either case it can be loaded with mag in and one in the chamber. perfectly legal

Here in cali that's illegal for ccw holders. Yep, found that crap out in my class. My friend (none-ccw, and unloaded) has this in his jeep. Depending on vehicle you plan to use I'm sure you can find something similar:

God I love living in Texas. The state actually goes out of its way to make laws promoting gun ownership

I kinda understand the process behind it. If a cop pulls over a little thug and sees the mounted safe and wants to check it out he needs a warrant or consent. So before the law was changed little thug a**holes would mount a safe in their car and stash their stuff in it when getting pulled over. So Cali made it a law that a safe mounted to the car was illegal to store weapons. Giving the cops the ability to check it out for weapons. At least that's how it was explained to me.
