A while back (in that other software platform) I wrote about cah car guns.
What kind of firearm? Is it readily accessible or in a lock box?
Which brings us to Part Two: Is it somewhere in the vehicle or on your person, AND, can you access it with speed should the need arise?
Not only that, but, does it live in the cabin, visible from the outside, when you are not present? And, if not, but it does stay there, how is it secured?
I’ve a couple gunnie friends who lost their firearms to auto burglaries, even though they weren’t visible from the exterior and there we no gunnie-type stickers (e.g. Security by Smith & Wesson) to alert burglars attention.
Serendipity for the burglars, I guess.
Can you access it safely (even if there are passengers) and quickly while driving?
Being left-handed, at least I’ve an easier time shooting from the driver’s side.
Brigid keeps hers thus.
And who knows what else she carries…
Mine’s on my side.
Whatever works!

“This is my Cah Gun.” Part Two
Mine rides either on my waist, or within arm’s reach – not locked, but out of sight. The gun you can’t reach, won’t help you.

As the Colonel said, while you’re reading this, if your pistol is not in arms reach, you didn’t get the point of API 250!
Of course, this applies when not reading in a vehicle, too!
Posted by guffaw1952 | March 8, 2012, 1:59 pmMy car gun also is on my hip. It’s my car gun, my hip gun, my headboard gun…it’s my gun, period.
