    i realize most companies have a firearms policy so that’s why I’m asking this in the owner operators forum. I have a dump control pedestal between my 2 seats in my 379 and have a paddle holster I was thinking about disassembling. Gonna take the paddle part off and screw the holster part into the dump control box on the side nearest to the passenger seat and mount my gun there so it’s at easy access instead of the glove box.

    Have any of you come up with any unique ideas?

    The only guns in my truck are my staple gun for hanging posters to promote peace marches and a grease gun. Guns are baaaaaad.

    Don't keep one. I never found a problem that I couldn't walk away from.

    More importantly, the reason behind why you had to use your gun..

    If it comes out you had to go back to your truck to retrieve your firearm, it will not end well for you..

    Ok so far people can’t help but to post irrelevant stuff. Please refrain unless you have some ideas. Don’t care about your opinions on right to bear arms. Just trying to get ideas other than what I came up with. Thanks
