Would be an interesting survey question for those that have had their guns stolen from their vehicles.
Of course they are. It's almost like putting a "nobody's home" sign on your front door when you leave.

It's not a 100% chance that there's a gun in the car, but the chances are much, much higher that there might be.
:iagree:

This is the only reason that I don't proudly advertise my NRA support and membership on my vehicle. I very seldom leave my weapon in the car anyways unless it is in a secured area.
Standing at my favorite taco truck waiting on my order one morning and the guy next to me nods at my truck. Kel-tec, Kahr, NRA, TSRA decals. Asks me how many times I've had my truck broken into. Zero, I say. Gives me a look. "I don't have one darn decal and I've had two guns stolen out of mine."
