Car Carry
How does everyone carry in their car?
I usually carry IWB around 4 o'clock but it would be really hard to draw from that position w/o wearing a seatbelt, let alone with one on.
So how do you do it? Pics welcome!

Re: Car Carry
I put it in the center console.
I just check any parking lot I'm in before re-arming.

FWIW, IIRC, AFAIK, FTMP, IANAL. YMMV.

Re: Car Carry
I carry normally IWB at about 3 or 3:30 in a Comp-Tac Shirt Tucker holster. I use the same position/method in the car.
I can get to it just fine, unless I sit on my shirt tail, but that's easy enough to fix. It works in both my minivan and compact car.
I tried positioning it a little further backwards for a while, but felt it bulged my shirt out too much when I was standing, and made the holster uncomfortable when sitting, but the 3-ish position works well for me.

Good for you for trying to draw from your holster in the car. Many people never tried.RiveraRa wrote:How does everyone carry in their car?

I can draw from IWB in my truck but I have a buddy with a sports car and it's a totally different story. He has a holster attached underneath the steering wheel that he can reach while buckled in.

Re: Car Carry
I keep a separate pistol accessible in the vehicle- console or door pocket.
No way I could pull my LCP from my pocket seated in my car.

Cannot figure out a way to conceal that.

Re: Car Carry
Ill have to try moving it closer to 3oclock and see if that works. Glove box is to far for me and I dont have a center console that can hold it. Maybe a seperate holster under dash or next to seat might work well. Ill have to look into that. Cross draw keeps coming to mind but that would require me to wear a 2nd holster which I dont want to do.

Re: Car Carry
FWIW, I find that I can't get to a pistol on my hip while I'm seated and buckled up. I tried using a seatbelt pouch by Wilderness, but it's cumbersome and slow to access. I usually wedge the pistol between the seat and the console, or chunk it on the floorboard partially covered by the mat.
