Few, if any, civilian facilities exist where one can safely practice drawing a firearm from any kind of vehicle mount or from an interior vehicle compartment and then engaging a target.

If you want a firearm to be accessible, keeping it on your person in a holster you train with regularly is arguably by far the more sensible and prudent approach.
Agreed. The optimal way is to conceal carry. I disagree with open carry as the general public " Freaks OUT" points fingers... and adults that are uneducated on the US Bill of Rights find open carry offensive and if they have children........do a poor job of informing their offspring of their duty to protect their loved ones.

As a former Florida LEO.......I conceal carry.....everywhere. I don't leave my firearm(s) in my POV unattended.

A limp wristed English gent like yourself, would clearly have no idea how to operate a firearm. From your post, you strike me as one who would hold his girlfriend's boyfriend's coat, while they made out. Nevertheless, I think you would get much more use for my suggestion below! Cheerio!

More pictures and less whining, guys. For the record, I don't have a small penis (or one at all) and I wish I lived in a concealed carry state. The anti gun people really have no idea that this won't stop illegal guns from being used by criminals and the people that would've legally acquired theirs would have no way to defend themselves. Crime is up everywhere. Even in suburbs, perps are forcing themselves into homes at gunpoint by pretending to be selling something, etc. I'll be damned if I can't protect myself. I'd rather die than get raped or worse.

Question for the Canadian dude or whoever posted the "I can't imagine a situation where I'd need a gun". You're getting a haircut - guys walks in the place with a hammer & starts playing whack a mole…this actually happened where I live….3 people dead. If I was there there'd be one - the hammer dude.

I don't carry but have thought about it with all the crazy stuff going on the last few years. I would have never considered it 5 years ago.

Also, for those of you who wonder what situations would require those to carry….I mean, WTF, do you not read CNN every day? Pick any of 3 reasons daily.

You do realize that criminals….wait for it…go to rich areas to steal and rob, right? The smart ones at least….

This thread is supposed to be fun thread.
Why reply or involved in a thread if you don't like the topic or the content.

I migrated to US from 3rd world country where no gun allowed and unsafe for my race to walk in public or ride public transportation.
My house have 7' gate with barb wire around it.
When I got here, I was so relaxed and happy since it is a much safer place.
But, in the past 5-6 years this country is going from 1st world country to 3rd world country very quickly.
You guys who born and grew up here wouldn't realize it.
But, I do, and so as all of my friends that migrated from 3rd world corrupt country.
You guys who don't like us being prepared to protecting ourselves and our family members, have to understand. There are more illegal guns that circulates in the market for much cheaper price and owned by the bad guys.

What a wonderful dumpster fire! I do find it a bit funny that folks who espouse the inalienable right to express their opinion only seem to truly feel that way when the opinions discussed match their own.

You guys w/ Glocks in the left cubby,... for cripes' sake, get a trigger guard cover on those things! Seriously!! You never ever know what is going to break in an accident that you didn't cause. dang.

You can screw a tether for the guard to the bottom of the tray, so that when you pull the handgun out, the trigger guard will pull off before the muzzle is out of the tray.

carry on-

Agreed, this would seem to be more than speech though. IMO to each their own unless it harms me or mine.
