Here it is perfectly legal to carry a loaded ar15 pistol on the front passenger seat with a 50 round mag if one wishes and if the situation dictated i thought it might be necessary i certainly would.

Nothing terry did is irresponsible, the 2nd amendment gives us rights and many states allow either open or concealed carry, whether you agree or disagree is irreverent, laws be laws for a reason and if you are following the laws of your state you don't really have to give a hoot about other more liberal states who's laws are more strict allowing criminals to run rampant. unless of course you are crossing into them on a road trip.
I thought I was pretty clear in what I wrote but since you got on your 2nd amendment soap box, I will clarify. The irresponsible comment is regarding the fixed pistol position strapped to the console, like it is OK for all to do across the country, which it is not. I am all for the 2nd amendment, where I live we have open carry now, and I also have a CWP.

Even though you can ride down the road in my state, with your pistol holstered just the same as the LEOs do, you still have to have sense about dealing with a LEO if you are stopped. The 2nd amendment covers the law abiding citizen so there is a difference if you are pulled over because your license plate is out of date, or tail lights missing, or a head light out. Or you are pulled over because you got caught pulling a wild hair and was running 150mph in your Challenger!

That type of speed situation may be an extreme example, you may not be going that fast. But if you are way over the speed limit, or driving reckless doing burnouts, or such as that, and get pulled over by an LEO? You are instantly on the other side of the law fence, so you'd best be very careful how you decide to display a weapon then.

That should be clarified enough to easily understand! My 2 Cents.

Sorry lost you at irresponsible, you seem to be inferring a lot of things.

I think most guys carrying a gun are the exact opposite of what you are saying.

i know when i carry a gun i hold myself to a higher standard of accountability than when im not carrying.

Sorry for the soapbox 2 A rant, but i dont automatically assume every challenger owner is a speeding, with tabs expired and are burnout kings with broken taillights and missing headlights.

Although i do agree that openly displaying a weapon in any vehicle could make a traffic stop much more uncomfortable.

so i guess i do understand, thanks
 
@terry56

Every state has its own laws regarding transporting a firearm in a vehicle. Obviously your state allows carrying in the vehicle like that, but that does not apply to all states. If you have a concealed weapons permit you were trained and educated on what is, and is not legal. IMO, you posting this here, showing it mounted in your car is rather irresponsible!
If I were looking to jack someones car and saw a gun of any type on the seat, hanging from the seat belt or anywhere else, I would be most likely to look for another car to jack.
 
I use to carry an ankle holster for my "J" frame wheel gun, but in Az. we wear shorts most of the year and it just seemed counter-productive;)
 
Just me but too visible to LEO's. I don't want an "uncomfortable" situation. Or be scrambling to cover it. There are more discreet options. IMO.

You got a mouse in your pocket? You wear shorts. We wear blue jeans...

The fashionable military/gang age male invaders here are wearing camo. Neighbors down the road from me have been taking pictures of them for the past few weeks as they await a stream of paid D.A. American teenagers arriving in their Honda Civics to transport them into town. They ditch their camo just before getting in the cars. I suspect that they are all farm workers looking for a better life because those types of folks always sneak into a country in camo, right? Thanks Joe. BTW if anyone wants some slightly used camo uniforms for free, come get 'em. You probably paid for them through your taxes anyway in the form of foreign aid.
 
it attaches to the seat belt with a velcro starp and bunge cords to the seat frame its called high way holster and got it on amizon
Nice concept, but I prefer mine on my hip at all times. To each his own. Please DON'T EVER LEAVE THAT UNATTENDED!
 
Personally I keep my 9mm in the center console locked and cocked. Good this this pistol is a small one 3.5" barrel or it wouldn't fit, LOL.
 
To try and keep this on topic and related to the OP's post. I simply do not know the answer to this question, but I will ask it...

Chargers are very similar to our Challengers, and they are a common law enforcement vehicle. Are there any mounts / devices / holsters / locking safes / etc that are designed for Chargers that could be used in our Challengers??

No Law Enforcement Agency is going to allow a handgun to be carried in anything other than on the LEO's person. Shotgun and Tactical Rifle mounts are a different story. There are plenty of 'gun safes' for vehicles on the market. I have one in every car and use it for other valuables as well as my pistol if I will be in a place/business that restricts firearms.

For long guns...

I'm assuming you spend your summer in an air conditioned room.
Nope, I'm a native; born and bred. I don't even have A/C in my house; just a swamp cooler...

Not even A/C, that's unfortunate. Funny how people handle the heat. Of my 11 man crew, myself included, only two of them wear long pants in the summer and most of them wear shorts just about all year long, except for a few days when it's not summer. My two young Mexican labors wear long pants all the time, when I talk to them about it I get the impression that it's a macho thing in their culture, men with naked legs sort of thing. Myself, I find the material sticking to my sweaty body uncomfortable, but I've only been here since 1947 so I have time to get my mind right and maybe man up like you

I don't like A/C. A swamp cooler is much more enjoyable if I turn it on. It humidifies. Otherwise a ceiling fan suits me just fine. I've never had denim stick to my legs. It's how I grew up here...
 
Had to re read the title, thought I was in the wrong thread. I at one time thought about the magnet style for my RV but never did anything. I think as the our country gets crazier I might go down that road again and install something for long trips,
