Gun Safe for Center Console (2020 Heritage Edition)

[Thomas5012]

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone figured out a handgun safe solution for a 2020 heritage edition land cruiser? The heritage editions have the cool box removed by default.

I am seeing some options for boxes with a cable that is meant to be attached to seats, but I was hoping for a cleaner solution, where a gun safe is bolted into the center console if that was possible.

Thanks,

Thomas

Sorry off topic. I did like the idea of a gun safe inside but I am personally against leaving firearms inside a car. Too many things can go wrong. Thieves…and then having to explain to cops why your stolen car has a gun in it. Child left unattended. Slow to draw. Forget to take gun with you when stepping out.

You guys have to try: ComfortTac Gun Holsters for Deep Concealed Carry - Ultimate Belly Band Pistol Holster for Men & Women, Belt Compatible with Smith and Wesson, Shield, Glock - Firearm Accessories, Black Amazon product

Best damn thing ever invented since sliced bread. So comfy. I carry Hellcat with one extra mag like it’s nothing! Does not imprint. No need to take your firearm out when sitting in car. I wear above holster outside my jeans…even more comfy!

You wear the belly band? I thought about one of those but just can’t pull the trigger on one because of the dang summer humidity in TN. I have a stealthgear holster that is pretty good when I carry but rarely use it because I am almost always wearing gym clothes…no belts.

Be honest… this was a paid endorsement, wasn’t it?

When I was at hotel, I wore this with my pair of basketball shorts. No belt needed. Comfy all day…walking around parks. Sweat not an issue.

I used to use inside the waist band uncle mike holster. But that is uncomfortable in the car. And requires a belt to secure it.

If it was then I would be promoting BFG KO2!

What are you carrying in there.

Center console carry, well you may as well leave it at home IMO.


Interjecting here wondering but ive been wondering if there is an actual gun mount thread anywhere? Is this cool with MUD?
Its chit chat but it is pertinent to 200 mounting. I wouldn't doubt we all carry the same 3-4 pistols anyway.

I'm not big on gun mounts. I'd rather have it on my person than mounted in my car. I know some people like the magnet mount on kick panel (issue w leg room for me) or molle panel on console, but I prefer to keep it on me.

I don't want it visible (I could see this making a trigger happy cop nervous) and don't want a potential attacker to know what I have. Plus I don't want to remove it every time I exit the car.

I could maybe go for a mount on a long road trip for comfort, but would want the molle panel so I can transfer the holster from molle to waist when getting gas, etc.

Springfield Armory Hellcat plus extra mag.

Yup, its sure to be alot of springfields, glocks, and Sigs lol. We should all be able to use very similar mounts.

This guy is the candidate for me to mount on the leg rest. Going to get retired from the nightstand and lose the laser light.
Loaded with 16 hornady critical defense rounds. I was going to do a red dot on / have it milled but its getting cumbersome.
Can you tell what my favorite color is by now LOL?

Yeah i agree on those points too. Doesn't help to look like a fat Osama in the south either.
Its just that like getting in there at that angle and losing all surrounding visibility for the reach is not inspiring confidence.
I would IWB carry but in a sitting position like that i would probably fumble it. And my stomach is going to protrude.
Im 6ft on a good day so leg space isnt a huge deal but stretching up to pull from waistband would still be awkward.

In any case, if you did want to carry on person then leg may be best, but in my climate im usually wearing shorts.
