Truck gun

[Ray Ray 3,566]

I read about these all the time in gun magazines, but of course they live in states that are gun-friendly. So, if you had the oportunity to carry a rifle/shotgun/pistol in your truck at all times, what would it be?

 

The idea is it is a do all gun. Personal Defense, pest control or uthinization. Of course the first choice is what most are concerned about.

 

Here's my choice. M44 Mosin

 

,

 

Cheap ammo, definite fight stopping power, bayonet for CQB, reliable and robust.

My Marlin Giude gun in 45-70.

[JonF 79]

I think I'd throw an old Tokarev pistol in the console. Cheap, reliable, powerful and doesn't take up too much space.

[Pew Pew Plates 358]

an AK-74u.

 

Small and has folding stock so it can be manipulated easily inside vehicle and stowed easily. Still accurate enough to engage anything withen reasonable distances. 5.45x39 has enough knock down for any 2 legged predator...will always go bang. Of course this needs to be in an SBR friendly state

 

[Ray Ray 3,566]

Are we all gonna run Ruskie stuff? Funny

 

Not sure of the tokarev though, I wouldn't wanna fight my way home with a single stack pistol

Taking the term truck gun to a new level

A nice cheap Mossberg 500. When the truck gets stolen, I won't cry about the gun.

Best choice so far, and fairly common.

[vladtepes 1,060]

umm why can't you have a truck rifle/shotgun

Agreed.

[mipafox 438]

Mini-14.

Yup... As far as I can tell the law permits us to drive around with unloaded long guns if we want.

In that case, i change my choice to a Mosin. Makes a much better bludgeon that a Mossy, and since that's all an unloaded gun is good for, I'll go for the additional reach.

That was my first thought.

I don't think that I would ever keep a firearm in my vehicle. It would always be on my hip or pocket.

your opinion isn't valid b/c you cheated

 

Not all of us can get retired PD carry permits haha

[coldsolderjoint 84]

+1 mossberg 500

I have lived in some gun friendly states but having grown up in Elizabeth could not bring myself to leaving anything in a vehicle I would be very upset about losing. I once had someone cut the top on my Austin Healey to try to steal my AM radio, If i could bring myself to do so it would be low maintenance firearms like a 357 revolver and/or an inexepnsive 12 GA pump.

[Caine 147]

I'd rather have a trunk monkey

I believe that Ray Ray was referring to if one was legally allowed to keep a firearm in their vehicle in a free state, (absence that you can now, but that is for another discussion), what would one keep in it. If you read my post again, I said WOULD, not WILL.

 

I don't think that I would ever keep a firearm in my vehicle. It would always be on my hip or pocket.

I think that if it were to be in your vehicle, it would be useless most of the time. It would better serve you if it were on your person.

[vjf915 456]

Hell yes to this. Buckshot in one side and slugs for longer range in the other. Small enough to hide, and makes it easier to get out of the car with. For the time being, might go with a a CX4 until the KSG proves reliable.

 

Ray......you wouldn't want a single stack pistol, but you WOULD want a 5 shot bolt action rifle? I don't follow...

Lol good point!

[Recon Racoon 49]

 

6.5 Grendel SBR. One can dream can't he?

 

AK Draco Pistol. If I have to fight my way through hoards of zombies, trenches, and the Siberian Tundra. This is assuming I lived in a free state, had a ton of money and Zombies existed.

The idea is to fight your way home. Taking game or uthinizing an animal is useless to me in this area as I can't shoot rats, seaguls, geese or cats.

 

The Mosin can do so much more a pistol. Yeah, it's only 5 shots and yeah it's a bolt gun but so what. It's menacing, sharp and one shot anywhere to the body would really be bad. Plus, I can work that bolt faster than most. Plus Plus the ammo is cheap! Plus Plus Plus it's a club/mallet/bayonet!

Is this the case for out of state people only?

or would i need this FID card thing?

[axeman_g 128]

where in the heck is the Trunk Monkey commercials from. I would buy a car from that dealership on principle alone. That was some funny stuff.

 

Ok, trunk guns in free states are mainly pest control, hunting opportunites and defense. Down south, 30-30 lever guns are popular, or in the semi auto mini14s are most popular.

 

I would with either of those two choices. I would consider a yugo m48 as a bolt gun.

Yes, someone finally gets it. The ones with the SBR AKs and KSG shotguns must be rich! It's supposed to be a cheap, reliable man (or pest or dinner) stopping firearm.

You can deal with a lot of bad guys with a mosin if they are all standing in a single file line :-D

.357 magnum revolver. The stock on a long arm would probably interfere with the steering wheel.
