Not sure if it's allowed or not but I'd like to share something that Gabe Suarez just posted directly related to this. Basically carrying a truck gun won't work/happen for the majority of people. 1) Most won't bother to consistently keep the truck gun available. 2) The pistol is what most people are going to carry more often and what you need to be good at. 3) My add to this. Theft. Chances are, unless you have a gun safe in your truck (I do but I'm not always driving my truck), it's more likely to be stolen than used.

Someone please let me know if it's ok to share.

Never feel a need to carry an AR during the turbulent year of 2020. But then again, I didn't got a whole lot of places that had me worried and stayed close to the house at night. Even now, I do not feel a need to carry an AR. I normally carry a full size Glock 17 with an extra magazine. MAYBE I carry a third if I'm worried about being in a bad area during a bad time? I'd rather having something on me. If I'm needing to get to my vehicle for a bigger firearm, I'm getting out of the situation. If I'm driving, IMO, a pistol is going to be more handy than an AR.

I do have a Sig MPX pistol. THAT... I would more than likely keep in a vehicle if a problem arises in a riot situation or something similar. Easier to conceal and maneuver inside and around a vehicle. Not as powerful as an AR though. Now I will say that when I go camping out in the boonies of New Mexico or Colorado, I'll keep my AR and shotgun in my truck safe. I'm a lot more paranoid in the woods being miles away from any help.
