Thinking about a truck gun

[etrain16]

Four door Dodge. I have looked everywhere and nobody makes one for under the back seat for a 2007! So I was thinking of having one made but not sure what that would cost me.

I have a similar issue with my truck. I've got a 2003 F-150 crew cab, but no one makes a center console pistol safe for that model. The years before and the years after, yes, but not for my year Seems the 2003 model year was a one-off in design that made it not worth the effort

They should custom make one for us for free just because its us.

I'd be happy to spread the word for them if they did.

thought about this one for my front seat. But would love to have one for my back seat as well.

A true truck gun should be able to withstand the rigors of being bolted discreetly to the undercarriage of said truck and left there until needed.
what thief looks under a rig for goodies?
remember to not leave the keys in the ignition though.. just a thought

Not sure I want to climb under my truck when the sh!t is hitting the fan? I would rather have it a little more accessible. For instance I'm driving home and everything goes sideways. If I can reach it then I can run people over and shoot the ones I can't.

a freudian slip by my autospell... Gunna leave it though. it definitely works.

Edit: Nope... OCD wins again. I had to fix it.

Here is a great thread on gun storage: Improvised Weapon Mounting And Storage Solutions | Survival Monkey Forums

Maybe at Cabella's? Improvised Weapon Mounting And Storage Solutions | Page 4 | Survival Monkey Forums

Not sure if there are lockable versions - seems like they all would be...

This one looks like it was improvised from a locking tool box: Improvised Weapon Mounting And Storage Solutions | Page 6 | Survival Monkey Forums

Well at least you know it'll be there, no matter what. And as an added bonus you'll be under there anyway for cover when the laserbeams start a flyin'!

How about a cheap 12ga with sights and slugs? Should be decent up to 75-100yds. Use different shells for close in needs like buck shot. You could get shotgun for real cheap.

Also, looking at the definition of a truck gun, cheap is one of the parameters.

I agree. A sub-$100 break open shotgun with a set of those caliber changing inserts plus some ammo for each caliber would very useful.

I'm probably one of the few that still uses a club on their steering wheel. Your not taking my rig easy.

I nice metal lockbox would be great. But still wouldn't leave a firearm in my rig 24/7. I worry enough about the tools, rigging, survival gear as it is. I like the cable idea for short term storage , while covered of course.

Good luck stopping a meth head with a pry bar and some time.

It's hard to beat an underfolder or AK pistol.

Sadly, finishing grad school makes me cash poor, and unless you need a custom built Mauser, I have little for trade options...
