Help me choose a safe for my truck. - Page 2

I don't know about other states, but in NC "concealed" pertains to "on or about your person". A safe under your seat would be considered "about your person". I know for sure that a locked glove box is.

So if you have a CCW, you're covered.

Tennessee, it's legal. We don't have CCWs, it's HCPs.

What does what mean?

A previous poster was asking how authorities would know whether or not you had a gunsafe in your vehicle. I was providing a few pretty easy scenarios where they could find out.

Of course, in MANY areas it is perfectly legal (hell, one would think preferable) to have a gunsafe rather than just throwing the pistol in the trunk. Other areas, not so much.

Oh, I really had no idea what you were talking about.

Well, it's still not in yet. They say it should ship out this Monday. But on a better note, the wife is gonna let me keep it in the house!
