35. the ubiquitous car seat slit for hiding
Tue Jul 16, 2013, 09:35 AM
Jul 2013

ceu: Many of the minorities I know that ccw like myself .. If I should breakdown and Mercedes or aaa can't get me help fast I like the peace of mind in knowing if I had to use my firearm for protection I have that option.

You could pretty much have done the same thing with a gun in your glove compartment, or, like many gun owner's I've known, hidden in a slit in the car seat vinyl just below the steering wheel (truth now, did you used to do this prior to getting ccw permit?)
One guy pulled his pistol out while carpooling to work, flashed it about in the car as a demonstration of how he had a gun. I didn't report him tho, woulda been a he said he said.
I used to keep a looks real fake plastic snub in the door comptmt, about as good as a real one for most intents & purposes; just get a black or grey one, don't go with red or green, tho your adversaries might stop cause they're laughing so much.
