I'm not trying to offend you here, just want to make sure you've thought this all the way through.

As someone who carries concealed nearly 100% of the time, I practice drawing each of the pistols I carry at least 100 times a week. I've taken a few courses and read a couple books... I forget the number, but I think it's around 3000. After 3000 repetitions an action nearly grows into a reflex. Until you've repeated the same drawing motion (or draw & c0ck or draw & safe>off) 3000 times, you're subject to a fairly high level of emotion, and consequently a high level of adrenaline.

After looking at the mounting system on the website you linked to, it looks like it's a plastic mount and you have it screwed into a plastic trim piece. I'd be willing to be the mount itself is fairly stout, but it looks like where you have it mounted to isn't all that stout.

My concern is that, in a moment of need, you'll become excited (which is understandable) and draw either with too much force, or at an angle other than rearward in relation to the holster - and that could easily rip the mount out. That would leave you holding a holstered gun with a cover over the trigger.

Obviously you would rather not get into a situation where you have to draw your gun this very instant, but if that becomes your only option it's preferable to draw from a known & slightly slower location rather than a faster location that could leave you surprised.

Again, not trying to offend you - just something to think about. For storage while driving, that location looks very comfortable compared to keeping your gun on your hip.

What kind of M4's are those I just purchased one from Panther arms chambered in the new 6.8 remington spc. Do you like that ACOG scope? I was thinking about getting one.

I was thinking the same thing. Pretty simple paperwork: "He was reaching for his gun."
It would likely be the same here in PA. Plus in FL they just passed the new law that doesn't require you to flee. I would probably do something under the seat if I was that worried about it. Mostly the center console is fine for my needs when the hip gets uncomfortable.

Nice idea, I would have to mount that somewhere else though. Here in Texas it would have to be conceal. Cop pull you over and see that right there he might shot first and ask questions later. :smoke:
Same in Florida to be legal. You have to have a carry permit and have the gun concealed on your person. It can not be out in plain sight in an vehicle, even if you are physically wearing it exposed. (This does not apply to long guns in a window rack.)

If not concealed on your person, it would have to be "securely encased" (requiring physical removal before firing) or enclosed in a location not immediately accessible and requiring an opening step before firing (i.e. glove box, console).

Under seat is open to interpretation, but some officers will arrest if the gun is under the seat but not in a case or holster that covers the trigger, since nothing has to be opened to retreive from under seat.

There is one exception here in Florida. If you are on private property or have permission of the property owner you can strap it to you forehead and do a rain dance as long as you stay on your property with or with out a carry permit. That includes in your vehicle. Just dont drive the vehicle off of that property with it holstered like that. If you do the dance part they might come and put a straight jacket on you though.

When I was an officer in FL, I stopped an ederly man for failure to stay in his own lane. The guy, who was in his late sixties and obviously slowed by his age and ailments had 5, yes 5!! handguns in his truck, and ALL were loaded and within his reach.
I felt bad for him, but I felt I was doing him a favor by taking the guns, because someone was either going to steal them, or hurt him with'em.

That sounds exactly like my Dad. He did three tours in Vietnam and came back a little stressed (to say the least). Toward the end of his life he always rolled with two .45 autos, a .44 Magnum, and a Ruger Mini 14, all fully loaded. He was never stopped by law enforcement in the vehicle, and never got into any altercations in the vehicle. He did stick a .45 in some punk's ear one time when he caught him siphoning gas out of his van in his driveway, but the responding police had no problem with that.

Well yeah, private property not withstanding. You can do pretty much whatever you want on private land. Except, I believe, you still can't shoot from a moving vehicle on private land?

That law only covers the "CARRY" on private property. That does not include the brandishing or discharge of a firarm. A whole different ball game there. So I would shurly say that firing from a vehicle is a big no no.

"In response to One BadassTitan"......................They are the Colt brand (military use) some are rigged with different nozzles, faster heat dissipation, point and shoot 3-6 mags fully automatic without getting too hot, the one with the green overlay just got finished not to long ago it was a custom job from a buddy who does gunsmithing. As for the ACOG scope i really like it its the commonly used 4x32 with the red sight (civilians can probably get a real good one for about $700.00) The one you see with the cat close by is a rigged 63 shot fully automatic M4 Carbine (1 bullet in the chamber makes 63 ) now lets keep that right of bearing arms alive soldiers.

I'd say he was a lil' stressed!!!

I think I'd take the Mini-those are pretty nice!!

Although, the .44 would do a nice job too.

i dont have a carry license but if i had a black powder flint lock that would be what i would carry
as it is the only thing( to my knowledge) that i could get away with (as far a pistols go) if i am not mistaken it is not considered a "fire arm"


any law enforcement officers out there agree?
