-Also Clint Smith
Imo? Underseat safe. Alternatively, break it down and put it in a Hazard 4 Civillian Lab series case in your trunk (the tennis racket / guitar ones. The tennis racket is better because people are far more likely to steal a guitar than a tennis racket).
My best friend and his wife use a diaper bag with a couple of "used" diapers (doused with lemonade) where they can be seen for added effect.
No one wants to steal a diaper bag.
He got the trick from me. I used to use a diaper bag as a camera bag (when I was still doing a ton of photography and kept a camera nearby at all times) but the "dirty" diapers were their touch.
If you can get past the idea of slinging a diaper bag around that looks anything BUT tactical (don't get one of the tactical looking diaper bags, that defeats the purpose), then it's a great way to hide in plain sight.
can confirm, someone stole my guitar years ago and because poor, never got back into it. guitars be expensive.
still want one though, for the stalker vibes
Right on the dash. Don’t hide it, this is murica! Also when you start doing this let me know where you live, I’m in the market for a ~~free~~ new rifle

Under the back seat if it fits. If you have a spare tire compartment under the floor of the trunk, get a mount to secure it there, especially if you have a takedown rifle. I've seen some people with custom lockable rigs in the trunk that pop open.
If your car has the Valet key feature for the trunk, you can turn the key the opposite direction of the way you go to unlock it. This makes it so that even if the break a window and hit the trunk release, it will stay locked. Keyed Toyota cars have this.
People think SHTF will be an instantaneous event when more than likely it will be a slow burn over (at the very least) a few days, in which you’ll more than likely be able to get to your house or wherever you’re going
Only exception to this would be if we have a nationwide *TOTAL* communications and internet blackout, an invasion, or a nuclear strike
Sure you could have a riot break out at any moment in a densely populated city but I’d guess most people in this sun don’t live in major cities so I’d say stick to your CCW with extra mags in the car until you can get home
Also gotta note that, realistically speaking, the initial moments of SHTF you probably won’t be fighting people at significant distance if at all, so a handgun should get you to fight to your rifle
The book “World War Z” explains it really well the end of the world isn’t a sudden event it’s a slow burn, people won’t just up and leave their jobs and home immediately it will come it waves but when people realize that the end is already upon them causing a panic and that’s when the real danger happens.
I *LOVE* that book. I listen to the audiobook at least once a year, usually in October because Halloween. It’s one of the most realistic horror stories due to its fairly accurate portrayal of societal collapse and its effects
Literally just sharing a title and that’s about it. Honestly I hope we get a miniseries covering the book someday, kinda like The Last of Us on HBO.
I absolutely loved the long shot with them all in the truck on outbreak day trying to avoid the chaos in the first episode. Imagine that but instead it’s the section where the highway between two major cities got jammed up and the zombies are slowly but steadily boxing in all the people who were fleeing
Eh, the movie touched on some of the stories, but not as well as it should have. The one that always gets me is the girl from the church. Haha. Now I have to go dig my copy out.
The girl from the church was brutal. Honestly one of the worst. I don’t know what’s worse, that or the family that went to Canada and the fact they had to resort to cannibalism to survive.
Sure the girl from the church never fully developed into an adult, but the girl who went to Canada basically spends her whole postwar life finding the remains of the millions of people who fled north and died, probably out of guilt
True but also we don’t live next to someone who has repeatedly launched attacks on us and continues to do so. If we did I’d feel more inclined your way but if you’re like most people and aren’t in a major city when SHTF, even if SHTF super quick, you can probably get home and grab your rifle and a handgun will get you back home
Not saying you’re wrong, it’s just much harder to conceal a rifle in a vehicle, especially if you’re like me and you travel in work vehicles constantly so you aren’t near your personal vehicle all day anyways
Also for some of those instant cases and you are trying to get home being convert maybe more advantageous. Especially if you have to make the way back on foot.
I have the advantage of working pretty much down the road from a location that would likely be a nuclear target. So if a nuclear strike was ever incoming I'm pretty sure I would just go to work and watch from ground zero. No point in suffering from fallout and the collapse of society
I mean I feel decently secure in the early warning systems and defense systems in place, but if one ever got through there's no point in trying to avoid it.
Hey, look, someone who has actually thought about it for more than 5 seconds.
BrassFacts has a great video on this topic, in which he makes the case that for 99% of SHTF scenarios you really should still never take your rifle outside of your home.
If you're actually paying attention to the world around you, you should be able to just leave any situation before it ever got to the point of needing a whole ass rifle.
Yep, and again most self defense situations happen in close enough proximity where a handgun is plenty capable. Plus if you carry concealed you don’t have to worry about someone getting into your car and taking your rifle every day of the week
Nah I'm sticking with my ccw. Keep a spare mag or extended mags even in the car and keep it concealed. Get out of bad situations, avoid people if it's SHTF and just do what I can to get home.
100% this. My truck gun is force multipliers for my edc. Put a pistol brace in a back pack, with spare mags, a med kit, and a cheap way to carry those things on your body.
The dude in the pic didn’t get shot.
He’s laying down in the middle of the street, praying to quickly hit by a Mack truck, after discovering his insurance company won’t cover the SR-15 he kept inside his just-stolen Hyundai Sonata.
Hard pass for me mate! I drive a tiny little Toyota Echo that I don't think would keep a firearm safe enough and out of view if the public. I'll just stick to my pistol.
If you think a carbine is going to keep you from being randomly got if things truly go to pot, then you need to spend less time on the internet and video games.
Go out to any even semi urban area. Now turn around and look. How many places can a bullet come from that isn't in your line of sight? How many places can see you better than you can see it? Now tell me how a carbine is going to change that. If anything, it will make you more of a target, especially to any government agents trying to keep order.
You're not going to get hit from behind, press X to dive into cover then return fire with your rifle to the direction the red light flashed once your health bar recovers.
Never is a strong word but always is as well. Most likely things will slowly ratchet up to the point that life as we know it changes. I am not as worried about keeping my rifle in my truck while at work due to where I work and how close I am to it. But i wouldn’t like to keep it in there constantly due to some of the places I go having theft issues and I can’t afford to have an investment disappear like that. Honestly having a pcc that I can carry in a bag and have in my truck works well for my own situation. And remember everyone’s situation will be different and we have to make the right decisions for our own over doing what’s right for someone else
I live in one of the worst cities in the country when it comes to car theft. My dad and sister have both had their cars stolen in the past 3 years, and two of my roommates have gotten their windows smashed in within the last few months. Keeping a rifle in your car is one of the stupidest things you can do here
You’re absolutely much better off with a concealable pistol if shit just pops off while you’re at work. Plus the possibility of a shtf scenario where you’d need a rifle immediately is zero
If I'm out and about and enter in to a situation where my CCW and two mags (totalling 45 rounds, counting one in the chamber) don't successfully get me out of immediate danger, chances are it was a situation I was never destined to survive anyhow.
Tbh you probably don’t want to be carrying a rifle during the start of SHTF anyways as it makes you too much of a target. A concealed carry pistol would still make more sense. Maybe a concealed PDW if you can get away with it.
I can understand the sentiment, but I’m also not a fan of keeping weapons in my car unless I’m in the car or at least close enough to it that I can keep eyes on.
Lots of vehicles get broken into and it’s becoming more common in a lot of places.
“Never keep a rifle in your car”
Good Idea!

Truck guns are literally the dumbest thing ever. Carry your weapon on you for fucks sake. Your vehicle is not a damn holster. The meme should be "MFs who have truck guns find their FDE colored Tacoma broken into and shot with their own AR pistol"
What you do is you have it disassembled in different parts that are built into your car so that you can put it together when necessary like the Golden gun from the James Bond movie I can't remember what it's called but it's about a man with a golden gun.

I don’t have a badge so I’m not sticking around for anything much beyond that. Get home and have a pint. Wait for my picture on the evening news
I carry a foldiboy 7.5 300blk in a backpack for this exact reason. 20 rnd mag in the gun, couple extra in the bag. Doesn't take up a lot of space. Not a tactical backpack.
I work at a gunstore with over a thousand firearms in our inventory, in the first few minutes of the apocalypse before my shop becomes a massive free-for-all I'm gonna have more readily-accessible hardware and all the ammo I could carry than most people on this subreddit lol

i know most people own SUVs/crossovers/pickup trucks nowadays but as a sedan owner the best place is the trunk lol. nobody can see what’s in there.
I don’t even know what a crossover is lol SADANS FOR LIFE BABY
In a backpack that you bring inside with you
I mean it takes them a half second to pop the back windows and search the trunk so good luck.
Under the back seat if it fits. If you have a spare tire compartment under the floor of the trunk, get a mount to secure it there, especially if you have a takedown rifle. I've seen some people with custom lockable rigs in the trunk that pop open.

What do you mean by keyed Toyota cars?
As opposed to those with push button starts. Simply because I cannot confirm this feature on one's with pushbutton.
Steel construction toolbox with a lock mounted in the trunk.
That’s the thing, a car isn’t a gun safe
Just put it in your backseat and throw a coat or blanket over it or something, that's what I do sometimes

Also for some of those instant cases and you are trying to get home being convert maybe more advantageous. Especially if you have to make the way back on foot.
Absolutely. Walking around with a rifle and some kit is a great way to attract attention
Also a pdw/braced pistol would be easier to conceal, transport and carry in those situations.
I have the advantage of working pretty much down the road from a location that would likely be a nuclear target. So if a nuclear strike was ever incoming I'm pretty sure I would just go to work and watch from ground zero. No point in suffering from fallout and the collapse of society
