a set of police handcuffs under part of the dash frame of the truck would be an idea, the other side of the cuffs should wrap around the gun and trigger gaurd. this should be enough concealment and quick access for most while driving.

I don't care about the insurance or the cost of the weapon. It's the fact that an unsecured weapon may be used by someone who would never be able to possess that weapon legally, to use it against a pe

I keep my primary carry firearm with me at all times.  As a military spouse I often end up in states that won't issue a permit to me because I'm not a resident of that state (violation of 14th Amendme

The act of carrying a gun is to prevent being a victim. Not an intent to kill. IMO.

I've seen a version using a chain and padlock. The guy bolted it to the body underneath the box. Box  had a hole in the bottom the chain ran through. Then padlock through the trigger guard. The length was set so that is virtually, if not impossible, to get bolt cutters on anything. Anything that will add time to the theft is a good thing

I guess if a drunk steals your car and kills someone it the owners fault too!?. The laws keep people from carrying in certain places. Need to be changed. That way there’re wouldn’t be a need to leave the gun in the vehicle.

Premeditation? Definitely not how anyone who has a permit views it. And more importantly, not how the law views it.

 

In CCW training, the main take-away was ironically to NOT use the weapon. Don’t be a hero. Retreat if at all possible. It’s a last resort when your own (or a family member’s) death is imminent. 


Because even if using force is justified, you’re going to be in legal limbo for some time with the aggressive, anti-gun DAs we have running around. It’s the last thing I would want to be involved in unless I literally had no other choice.

seeing your from Texas,  and being there is a mass exodus of liberal commies from Kalifornia to AZ,New Mex, And Texas area's, you guys  can exspect more laws like this to place the blame and responsability onto the owner, even if your not really responsable. oh yeah, and the commies will make you pay for it with higher taxes. get prepared guys the commie wave is coming no matter who is president

 

i personally recommend using and locking up an 80% gun with no numbers to be tracked back to yall'

I would not use an 80% gun (or any modified gun even) for self defense. Reliability aside, you’re opening up a huge bag of worms if you need to use it. In court, you know the DA will paint you to be a trigger happy gun nut who manufactured an un-serialized pistol to evade detection. It’s not a good look.

Being political isn’t allowed here. That being said our cities in Texas are falling slowly but surely. Amazing how one state gets ruined to the point of mass exodus. Only those residents never learn only to repeat somewhere else. See I can be factual without being political. Just the facts, jack. I don’t carry or travel with a gun. I am mindful of where I travel. If there’s ever a national wide permit to carry or I get fearful of my safety. Then I’ll carry. It is our right.

So glad my comments got deleted on here. A liberal must have gotten upset that I stated "he" shouldn't be allowed to have a keyboard by making pointless comments! I guess we don't have freedom of speech!?!  ??

 

Anyways, GM makes a new rear storage area that is lockable. It would be a great place to put it while your away from your truck. Then when return, you could put it back in front counsel area.

The site was down for a day and some content across the site was lost due to having to load a back up copy of the site to the servers.

 

Your post apparently fell into that category. I can find no trace of it.

 

But yes there are limits on speech here. Read the site guidelines

I call bs...my post was deleted as well and I had a quoted reply that’s nowhere to be found. This forum sucks anyways all bullshit advertisements   in between the same useless questions asked over and over.

No such thing as freedom of speech in this snowflake “liberal” controlled internet.

      5 Best Slide Down Gameplay Tips! 

      By lanaderay · Posted

      Are you playing Slide Down endlessly but your score is still low? Are you constantly crashing into obstacles as the game speed increases? Don't worry, this article will share 5 invaluable tips to help you master the race and impress your friends. Golden Rules 1. Look one step further. The mistake of 90% of new players is only staring at their character. The secret of experts is to look towards the top of the screen (where the slide is about to appear). This gives your brain an extra 0.5 - 1 second to process the situation and determine the direction of movement before the obstacle approaches. 2. Use gentle movements; don't swipe too hard. Slide Down is very sensitive. Moving your finger too forcefully or with excessive amplitude will cause your character to be thrown off course or crash into a wall. Practise moving your finger with small, decisive, and precise movements. 3. Don't be greedy for gold in dangerous locations. Gold coins are tempting for buying skins, but life is more important. If you see a gold coin right on the edge of a cliff or next to a spike trap, ignore it. Our goal is a High Score, and your score only increases if you survive. 4. Make the most of Power-ups. During the slide, you'll encounter items like Magnets (attract gold) or Shields (temporary invincibility). Never miss them! Especially the Shield, it's your "get out of jail free card" to help you get through those deadly fast sections. 5. Stay calm when speed peaks. When your score exceeds 500 or 1000, the game speed will be very fast. At this point, don't try to think logically; let your natural reflexes work. Take deep breaths and don't panic. Apply these 5 tips to your next game, and your leaderboard will surely improve dramatically. Good luck climbing the Slide Down leaderboard!

      Why I Recommend a Desiccant Air Dryer for Cleaner, Drier Compressed Air

      By lingyuair · Posted

      If you use compressed air regularly, one problem you cannot ignore is moisture. Water in the air line can cause rust, unstable air pressure, poor tool performance, and even damage to sensitive equipment. That is why I highly recommend using a desiccant air dryer. A desiccant air dryer is designed to remove moisture from compressed air by using drying materials such as activated alumina or molecular sieve. Compared with basic water separators, it can achieve much lower dew points, making it especially useful for applications that require dry and stable air. For workshops, painting systems, pneumatic tools, CNC machines, laser cutting equipment, and industrial production lines, a desiccant air dryer can make a big difference. It helps protect equipment, improve air quality, reduce maintenance costs, and extend the service life of the whole compressed air system. Another advantage is reliability. Many desiccant air dryers are built for continuous operation and can maintain stable drying performance even in demanding environments. For users who care about long-term efficiency and equipment protection, this is a smart investment. When choosing a desiccant air dryer, I suggest paying attention to air flow capacity, working pressure, dew point performance, regeneration method, and maintenance requirements. A good model should match your compressor system and actual air consumption. Overall, if moisture is causing problems in your compressed air system, a desiccant air dryer is definitely worth considering. It is practical, efficient, and highly useful for anyone who needs clean, dry, and reliable compressed air.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By Jsdirt · Posted

      I went another direction after losing a trailer tire, thanks to not being able to access air at ANY of the 5 gas stations and garages I stopped at prior, with a Toyota Tacoma onboard, 50 miles from the Canadian border. They were either out of order, access was blocked, or the hose a few feet too short and I couldn't get any closer without risking damage to someone's property.   https://postimg.cc/gallery/X5QJ55w

      I took a 12 second video on my iphone but the file is too big to upload. I will have to figure out how to extract the audio or just do another start with an audio recording.
