Truck Pistol Location

Center console for me.
If I wanted to be more tactically sound, I could rig up a holster INSIDE the center console, or maybe velcro a holster to the left inside wall of that container, to hold the holster and gun in the same position every time, so I don't have to grope for it. Right now, I do have to grope for it, and that takes an extra 1.0 seconds. (not a big deal to me, but faster IS better, I agree).

P.S. You can use Bondo auto body dent filler to make an interface that lets a holster sit solidly in one of your vehicle's cup holders. The gun and holster go 3" deep into the cup holder, and the Bondo fills in all the gaps so that your holstered rig fits the cup holder perfectly. Now, since most of your gun will be sticking up out of the cupholder, it may not stay in place during a serious crash or roll-over, but it will remain in place during normal driving, even with abrupt stops and hitting big potholes. I used this method for a few years back in the 1990s.

Under a towel on the front seat. Lock box when I'm not around.

To each his own, but I feel like this invites trouble during interactions with police. Also, folks can easily see this through the window of your parked car, inviting them to break in looking for firearms.

Actually, it's pretty discreet. I've even had people in the car that took a while to notice it. I don't think I've ever had anyone outside the car see it.

If I'm about to interact with police, I simply move it to inside the center console. I also have that option when leaving the car, if I ever feel the need.

When I used to do such a thing I had an old cheapo uncle mikes holster stuck between the seat and the center seat and would just stick it there, handle up, and throw an old t shirt or grease rag over it. With all the other crap in my truck it blends in perfectly and nobody knows its there but me.
