From another old retired cop. I agree. Best car carry I use is a Smith 625JM in a Galco cross draw holster. I got this holster for just this reason. Add a large speedloader carrier and I can carry three 6-rd moon clips stacked. These moon clips can be carried in both front vest or jacket pockets and the weight makes moving the outer wear away for the draw easier. A 4 or 5 o'clock pistol waist carry is problematic due to the seat belt. Appendix carry is acceptable depending upon the size of the pistol. I can carry small, medium or large pistol cross draw. It is the most natural for me. Good testing.

In questionable areas I keep my HP grip forward under my left thigh, otherwise in vehicle , like you in left holster grip forward. Speed is much less important than situational awareness. Also well to remember that your vehicle is weapon of choice- stay in it! Use it.

Another old ex cop here. I like my Galco vertical shoulder rig in my truck and on my Harley.

@@7gfh7 A standard holster will often have the pistol at an angle (FBI cant). When you slide it around to the other side, the grip is then canted away from the direction of draw. If you're going to carry concealed regularly, you WILL wind up with a holster collection. That's just the way it goes. ;)

When he said "Trunk Monkey" I just knew he was gonna hit a button and the camera man would pop out the trunk with a street sweeper. THAT is the best choice for me. With the added benefit of you being able to pull a pistol off the magnetic sheath at the same time.

Or Massachusetts...lol

Stop running away from the fight 😂😂😂😂

Another moral: stop voting democrat.

Leaving doesn't fix the problem, it just exports it. Stay put, stop paying taxes and vote for change.

@@TheFus The citizens can FORCE the change by refusing to comply with the tyranny. Example: If I am EVER in a jury for citizen being charged for owning a firearm, that they bought with their own money, they WILL NOT get that guilty verdict from me whether the citizen is a convicted felon or not. If I can get the rest in the jury to agree with me, NOT GUILTY. Jury nullification is an AWESOME way to telling the sniveling, cowardly, SERVANTS in government, "Uh, I don't think so, buddy."

I'm 72 and know a lot more than most young people. But sometimes even a fossil can learn from a younger person. This man has extensive experiences with firearms in recent times. I've been out of the Army for over 50 years and many things have disappeared from memory. I appreciate this young man offering his expertise.

@@Bob-rd9vd I appreciate it too, just saying he's got a lot more time in the saddle than most folks. I'm 66 and don't have that kind of time in that saddle. And for sure a bit less limber :)

Thx!!

Also, you'd need to lock the glove box if children were in the car, to prevent them from finding and "playing" with it. Would add too much time to unlock, open, then draw

I thought the same thing. He said the shoulder harness wasn't a problem but for sure it would be when I did the same thing! That said, I would never carry in the glovebox...

Some mag mounts do offer trigger guard.

With the magnet mount that is why I practice so much Is muscle memory with your finger . I am 60 years old

If you get into anything more than a minor collision and are using a magnet mount, your loaded gun just turned into a flying projectile…

They make kydex trigger guard clips attached to paracord lanyards

The one I have has a rack stop on it, so I just push forward with one hand it's rack the weapon and you can grab, rack and pull the weapon up all in one fast motion.

I have a similar setup with my Taurus g3 and the cup holder in my Toyota venza… I’m a left handed shooter, and it’s a hell of a lot easier getting my firearm from the door than on my hip

My intuition says "Listen to his intuition". Intuition is like that sometimes. It's cross intuition I suppose.

​@@davidgraham2673I heard Democrats are offering free tuition or something like that.

@@MyRadicalLife , I hope it doesn't come to "fruition".....

@@jaylengregory7607 I have the Taurus G3 as well. How do you like the gun?

Yup, for someone who drives a lot, a shoulder holster is great as is an ankle holster...👍👍

That's a great point about toilet time. Worked at a lowes for a period of time and pistols left in bathroom stalls happened often including a police officer leaving one. Often wondered how many didn't get turned in!

The 80s ruined shoulder rigs. And Dobermans.😐

Thank you for being a member for so long! 🙂

That's absolutely ridiculous. In Florida you can carry a firearm in your vehicle as long as it's concealed and not accessible for immediate use - glove box, center console, in a case etc. With a level 2 retention holster you can place it anywhere in the vehicle except on your person. You need a CCL to have it on your person.. which is kinda dumb since it's a permitless carry state now. Some laws are just senseless

Actually, in Pennsylvania, as soon as you enter the vehicle with a firearm, it is considered concealed. It doesn't matter if you have it open on your person or not. Make sure you have a license to carry before entering a vehicle with a firearm.

@@jimchrist9749 actually I was going to see my daughter in her hospital (long term) and didn’t want to carry inside.But I knew I was screwed. There was no way they’d believe that was the true reason. But I was a mess that day. Everything that could go wrong that day did. 65/66 years old and my world disappeared. Luckily I got out quick enough to save my house. I’m a disabled veteran and on social security and both would have been lost. I had no idea about getting lawyers and bail bondsman’s. First thing they do is put you in quarantine for 3 days. After 2 days another person came in so I was in Quarantine for 5 days. As soon as I was allowed a phone call I got the bondsman and was out that afternoon. My world had been turned upside down. I was an accused felon. My lawyer did the rest to get it cleared out. But it took a shrink and 18 months of severe probation to do it. I got off early only because of Covid. They didn’t want anyone traveling to the office every day.

⁠@@jimchrist9749if I have a NC ccp, can I carry in my car in PA and on my person?

This is what Massad Ayoob recommends, the ankle holster.

Some people can't draw in a seated position...I tore my rotator...I can't draw sitting down...but I'm sure you thought of that already...

If you're Rolling, aka & You must come to a sudden stop, Hard turn, ect. The seat belt WILL NOT let you move @ all. Until @ a Complete stop. That's just the way they work. Don't Believe me ? While driving, & breaking, or accelerating, Tug on the waist or Belt part of the seat belt. Carrying another gun in a range bag, can make the difference between life & death.

This is what I do. If I have a garment or something around, sometimes I’ll just leave it on the front seat covered

I’d go a step further and not have an extra holster, but place the holstered gun between the seat and console and then place the holstered firearm in my waistband when exiting. You don’t want to be reholstering a loaded gun while seated.

@@Ben-qm9zq Extremely crucial point. Grip, and what hand you employ notwithstanding, firing a gun (even "only" 9mm) within the confines of a vehicle SUCKS. Anyone who hasn't experienced this - I urge you to try it, Please be safe and wear proper ear and eye pro, but also use that as a lesson that will hint at how absolutely dogshit miserable firing a weapon in a car is. If you need you, you won't have hearing protection. Not only that, but the percussive blast is... Disorienting, to say the least. IF you can, getting the muzzle out the window will help. Slightly. Chances are, you may not be afforded that luxury. Be prepared for that percussive blast. It'll suck.

@awkwardme5375 💯 % however, again, if your opponent is within the vehicle it'd be rather difficult to have the muzzle outside the window! 🤣 I might suggest that if you can put that biAtch against your attacker. This will still suck but may help some. Driver's of public passengers be aware! Also, if you opt for pepper spray, make sure it's a spray and not a stream if possible, for obvious reasons I think. Harder to accurately target the attacker with a stream.

Same here.

@@SemperDave0311 Semper Fi brother!!

You're welcome! Thanks for watching 🙂

Same here, I keep my head on swivel 24/7 and if the situation calls for it? I always make sure to have my Firearm out and in my lap, but that's only if all other options have been eliminated 🤔

⁠@@concretejungle8916If there was a situation that required you to pull your firearm, why would you have it in your lap? Please leave it holstered until needed.

Yep…
