The ONLY time that I leave a gun in my vehicle is when I have to enter a location that both prohibits my concealed carry AND has a metal detector or other process to ensure that no one enters while armed. And that would mean that my vehicle is parked with the gun for only a short time. Twice in my life I have had a car broken into, but neither time was there a gun inside. I have no bumper stickers, window decals or anything else on any of my vehicles that would give a thief the idea that there might be a gun in the car. No "Protected by Smith & Wesson", or NRA decals, or for that matter, a MAGA bumper sticker or the like. No Glock baseball cap visible on the rear deck of the car, or anywhere else. I carry every day, but the gun is virtually always on my person and not likely to ever be seen, let alone stolen.
