Whenever I'm forced to lock my pistol in my truck for CCH prohibition reasons I use a lock box and still don't feel right about it. I'm obviously missing something because many smart people choose to keep a gun in their vehicle, so educate me - why?
My thoughts on this are from the SD perspective:
- A handgun in your truck can be stolen easily.
I never leave it in the vehicle very long unattended. Just when I go in somewhere that I can't carry.
- If it's in your truck when you need it you just lost a gunfight.
What if the fight comes to you while seated in your car?Carjacking, etc.
- If you go get it and come back to the gunfight you're going to jail.
It would be with me when I leave the vehicle 99.9% of the time.
- If you need it while driving are you going to dig around under the seat or in the glove box for it?
Nope. Easily accessible while driving
