Concealed Carry Location in New Truck?

Console safe or locked glove box

I have a 2021 2500 and I have a magnet mount on the right side below the steering column. Keep my G45 in it.

The door is a possible location being there are a lot of sections, but I would need to secure it there somehow.

I've always been against door carry. If someone opens your door, they now have a gun.

It sucks being a lefty if I ever have to shoot out of the driver's side. I'd probably just shoot with my right hand at that point.

Does your truck have the console that goes all the way to the dash, that has 2 cup holders and a tray?

If it does … grab hold of the cup holder/tray portion and give it a good tug up. It’ll pop loose and you have a huge area to mount a lockable box/holster/etc.

My gun sits between the seat and the middle seat in front of the seatbelt and there is a small towel over it.
You guys that place your gun with magnets on or below the steering column where you do hide it when you park and get out your truck ?

Do you guys unholster/reholster from/to their carry location every time they get in/out the truck?

I have a 2016 Sierra 2500 and bought a console safe from Lock’er Down. I bought one of their magnets and mounted it to the console close to my right leg. The magnet is strong enough to hold the gun through my pocket holster, never had it fall off while driving.

A couple of years ago, someone walked up to a vehicle at a Sonic in Dutchtown, surprised them and pointed a pistol and told them to get out. They did.

If there was weapon was under the seat, in a glove box or just not grabbed because of the surprise, the perp would be riding off with your car AND your gun(s).

It seems right to me to keep it in a cross draw holster that you can get to without too much effort.
