Interesting question(s)... in this area, probably 25-50% of the trucks have a handgun in the glovebox/console... more during hunting season...

My 9mm lately has been in a case, under the rear seat... magazine full, not usually in the gun. I've been thinking it might end up in the console... or maybe something smaller might end up in the console...

Big concerns are:

others in the truck... stumbling onto it. Probably a little too concerned about that, but I do carry relative strangers occasionally... most don't open the glove box. LOL

the security of the gun and the idea of it falling into the wrong hands... (in an area where locking one's vehicle is not the norm...)

Sometimes I think that carrying it on the person is the best of all worlds.
