To say its out of my leg holster or my waistband holster, it usually goes in my console till I get where im going then back on me. A gun in the car is only good if you're in your car and how often do people get mugged in their car? IMO to get me out of the car you would have to have a gun already aimed at me and in that case i wouldnt go for my gun anyways they have the distinct advantage. and if they dont have a gun how are they to open a locked door and pull someone out with a seatbelt on before you could drive away?

Mine is always in a holster on my hip when I am in my truck. Never know when you have to jump out quickly and it is hard to dig around in your console or between your seats. Believe me I know!

Man, if a cop sees this he will either stick his weapon in your ear or will drag you out by your head through the window!

I always wear mine in the vehicle. When police pull you over and you have it on you it brings a smile to their face that makes them almost forget you were going 86 in a 60 to begin with.

If I get out I just leave my IWB holster on and lock it in the glove box.

This, and also if you have a big shirt it conceals pretty good.

In my T/A and Max, I keep it in the center console. In the Suburban, I keep it in a black zippered pouch (it's actually a carrying case for a universal laptop power supply), unzipped, in the door pocket.

If you have a firearm on you or in your vehicle and you are a chl, you must show them your chl. MUST!

The new law removes the penalty for failing to show a police officer a concealed handgun license (CHL) when stopped by an officer who asks for identification. The law went into effect Sept. 1. Previously, if a person was carrying a hidden weapon and failed to present the CHL, they could lose the license for one year.

^ 2009 it changed.

Also be very ****ing careful about keeping a gun in the car. Don't be the dumbass that forgets it in there and puts another gun in the hands of a criminal.

I keep it in an unzipped backpack on the seat. I was taught its best to keep on your left side, so you can draw your weapon less conspicuously in the event of a car jacking. You don't not have to show the cop anything unless they ask. Learned that from a 30 year veteran of the police force who trained me for my CHL
