Every crack one of inside a vehicle?
Tell everyone what it's like to to fire a gun inside a car .Yes. Even took a class where we had to shoot out the front windshield of a car and shoot into cars.
I haven't actually done any live shooting from inside my car but I have been trained and understand the vulnerabilities of being assaulted while sitting in the drivers seat. So for that reason I have planned for my defense from that location and the defense of any family or passengers that may be riding with me.
Without fail, I always remove my conceal carry firearm from my person prior to getting in the drivers seat of my vehicle. I place the unholstered pistol in a predetermined location on the under side of my steering column. I do this for two reasons.
1. It is uncomfortable for me to conceal carry when I'm driving and I haven't found a way to alleviate that discomfort and keep the firearm easily accessible.
2. I have effectively made my pistol as quick and easy to access from the drivers position as the headlight control knob or radio tuner in the vehicle.
When I had determined that I could not comfortably conceal carry while in the driving position, I toiled for months on where to strategically locate my pistol in the car when I'm driving. Many trials and fails finally led me to keeping it safely and firmly located under my steering column, held there by a commercially available magnet designed for the task. I can actually access my pistol quicker from this location while in my car than I can draw it from my on body conceal carry when I'm not in my car.
I drive a 2019 Ford Mustang and interior space is at a premium so it was difficult to find a location for my Sig P365 that I could access easily with my right hand (strong hand but I do shoot lefty too). I keep two extra 12 round mags in my console where they are not as easy to access as the pistol but I know where they are if I need them. Though the pistol leaves with me whenever I exit the car, the extra mags in the console stay put and are dedicated solely to remaining in the car fully loaded.

Who cares if you need to save your life, you gonna worry about putting in earplugs first?Every crack one of inside a vehicle?

I bought this magnet off of Amazon. It is strong enough to hold my Glock 19 solid so my Sig P365 is no issue at all.I'm curious how you were able to mount your magnet. I've got a couple magnets for this reason but keep thinking that the plastic that cars are made of nowadays it may prove too big of a task holding a pistol time and time again.
Full electronic earmuffs for the class. And you better have eye protection because little bits of glass bounce back from the windshield.
No, rather I'm suggesting perhaps there are better options that won't blow eardrums out and rattle teeth loose.
OK, here's my two cents. First, I don't subscribe to shooting out a windshield from inside the car. Situational awareness is the key as mentioned in the video.
I think a car magnet is a good option even with their limitations and after factoring in my own "What If" scenarios.
I bought a Remora holster that I leave in the car. I simply move my pistol from my carry rig (RH) to the Remora and position my gun in a comfortable cross draw position. My access just became a bit quicker.
Curious, is this holster used as an appendix carry, if not which model?
