What do you carry in your vehicle?

[Backlighting]

Here in Vegas it's legal to have a gun either in plain sight or concealed in the vehicle. I keep a Bulldog 44 sp. within easy reach.

My policy when it comes to guns is to trust no car, no neighborhood, no supermarket parking lot, no one...no foolin'. Cars are not gun vaults, and it is the height of irresponsibility to leave a weapon in your car, legal or not.

bolted gun-safe in center console, when i get in, it opens and my HK Mk23 sits beside me...when i get home it goes in with me...if i go into a location, it gets relocked...while i'm at work, it's in my desk...

I don't leave

a gun in the car but when I'm traveling I keep my M&P 9 in the console. (I don't have a carry permit).

 

[Shuutr]

Bersa Thunder 9 UC pro. I work in a hospital, so I have to leave it in the car. In a safe of course. I understand the risk, and I don't want to arm a thug, but my option is to leave it or go unarmed for most of my time away from work or home.

I have a small gun safe in my car, and if I have to leave a gun in the car (for example, when I take my wife to one of her physical therapy appointments, which is in a hospital) then I lock it in the safe. I realize that it isn't perfect, because nothing is totally foolproof (a thief could steal the entire car!) but it will delay or perhaps stop a smash and grab thief. When I get home, I do not leave a gun in the car, even though it is in an enclosed garage.

Backlighting from Vegas is correct, but fails to mention that although Nevada is a 'must-issue' state, there are private establishments who post 'No Firearms Allowed" signs on the doors to their premises. This is a problem for CCW folks who obey such signs. If possible, I will not patronize such locations. Medical offices, where folks may have to undress for exams, often have such signs. I usually take my chances and not carry when going to an MD's office. I will not leave a weapon in a vehicle unattended.

 

[CAJUNLAWYER]

The only weapon I leave in my car is an 18" length of 000 gauge copper service cable.

I bet that hurts. I have an old aluminum T ball bat that is around 30" long in case somebody wants to start up a game I also have a cane knife in the back with the tools.

I have those gun vaults in my car and truck. The car has a G17. The truck has a G21. meh, Glocks. So what if they get bounced around and scratched up?

Yep, plus it's not a "weapon". It's even farther away from a weapon than a baseball bat, which closely resembles a club or bludgeon! I learned that one from an old STRESS cop.

What Do I carry

My registration, certificate of insurance, drivers license and a credit card for gas

 

[richeyo2]

I never leave a firearm in vehicle myself, but my normal CC is always available along w/back up.

 

[Rangerpat]

The only "weapons" I leave in my vehicle are a hickory walking cane, also a knife located in a pocket on the inside driver's door. I have a CC permit so the knife is covered if a LEO questions the knife; I have never had a problem about it but was informed by my BIL (a police chief) that it could be an issue with some offficers.
When carrying my gun, it goes wherever I go.

 

[photoman]

I very rarely leave guns in the car.

 

[mawguy]

Just remember guys, if someone steps out of a vehicle with a baseball bat, tire iron, length of chain, length of wire, hatchet, numchuck, sword.... you get the message. Anyone who is armed with a device that could cause bodily injury or even death can be shot in self defense. The knife attack is more worrisome because an attacker can close distance very quickly and deliver a fatal stab or cut. Bat swinging can be stopped before you can yell "play ball".

Moral to the story. Have your gun with you.

 

[Berserker]

I leave a gun in my vehicle, cause I want to make sure I always have gun. I recently picked up a M&P for under $200, need to work in the springs a little more and test it, but that will be my truck gun.

I have no kids.

Someone could break in my house and still a gun too. I'll have to look into laws. But if my truck gets stolen, and I lose my permit, that is just more liberals not putting the blame on the criminal.

I do lock my doors when a gun is there.

 

[Berserker]

I have thought about getting a club for my truck and bike. WI allows the carry of a batons with CC. You could have a guy full of road rage, but unarmed. I don't want to get into a fair fist fight.

 

[airwrench]

Bodyguard .38 SPL

If you see me in my vehicle I am armed.

Luckily in WI, you can have your gun in your vehicle at work. When I lived in IN, you couldn't, so that was 5 days you couldn't carry.

IN changed their law about two years ago. As long as it is in a locked vehicle your employer can not prohibit you from having it.

 

[El Zilcho]

I keep a 1911 in a rug under the front seat, a Glock 27 in the console, and a Ruger SR22 in the glove box. Often times there's a .357 lever gun behind the back seat as well. It's seldom unattended for long. It's parked in the garage at night and wife has her own car.

On the few occasions I drive it to the big city (i.e., Little Rock), I pull them all out of the truck and just carry whats on my belt.
