OK, here it goes.
This rifle is a little long for this case, it was designed for an M4 with a 14.5" barrel. you can see the grommets in the bottom
Here is a view of the grommets, and the zip tie and connection system going back to my seat frame.
Here is what it looks like once I zip it up and drop the seat.
Here is a wider view of what it looks like:
In the green bag are 10 mags, a basic cleaning kit with a bore snake, oil bottle and q-tips.
This setup works for me because I park in my garage at night, and I am an independent health insurance agent, and 99% of my appointments are in the client's home or I meet them at a Starbucks or something. I am rarely more than 30-40 yards away from my truck. I have very little fear of having it broken into and stolen like I would if it was parked in an employer's lot 8 hours per day. YMMV, but it works for me and is cheap.
I pull the rifle out quarterly and re-lube it. Never had a problem.

Re: AR-15 Truck Carry
I took a cheap soft case, punched grommets in the "fold" part, ran zip ties through them, then ran zip ties to a "dog leash clip" on the frame of the seat. I leave the end of the soft case unzipped and clip it in under my back seat. So, when i have to hit the brakes, it does not fly forward, it also helps with the side to side if you tie it in right. To get it out I open my back door, reach in the case, grab the buttstock, pull real hard, hit the safety and start shooting.
