Suggestions on securing weapon when you have to leave it in your car.

There are times when my weapon has to be left in the car. So far I do not like this idea as I worry about someone breaking into the car and using my weapon.

I am looking for suggestions on how to better secure my weapon in car. Maybe an ammo can or metal box bolted through floor with a lock on it?

Yep. Have a similar handgun safe bolted to the floorboard.

that titan gun vault is pretty slick especially with the ammo attachment for people who dont have there concealed carry and have to have the ammo and gun separate.

Just FYI, you do not have to keep the ammo and gun seperate.

I really like the universal console vault, would work perfectly in my truck since I do not have a console in it. I would almost rather have an all in one drink holder/vault though seeing as I don't like the way my cupholders and have removed them, don't really like the vault and cloak two piece though. And it appears the universal only comes in a barrel lock form only and would prefer a combo lock of some sort.

Paranoia Strikes Deep!

What others don't know is nothing to worry about.

I made a experiment! I put a $5 bill in plain sight, but not where people knew.

I did this at work! if someone had searched for the money they could have found it. Nobody knew it was there, and for 5 years I left it there. When I retired I put it back in my wallet, and to this day no one knew it was there.

So if someone doesn't know your weapon is there why should they bother it.

Don't ask, Don't tell! I think you should never have any problems.
