If you carried a gun in your truck, what would it be?

[Mike]

Yeah, @mndriver still has me scared of the Illinois rest areas, LOL.

seriously though, if you were to carry, and I know nobody does because it is illegal and the federal marshals will swarm in on you in the middle of night....

What would you carry?

I don't carry a big ass .44 Ruger super redhawk in my truck, but if I did, I might consider downsizing into something that is more automatic. and smaller.

I would need to buy a tire thumper, though...... .If I carried such a weapon.

 

[mndriver]

.357 5-shot revolver with .38 special lead ball ammo.

Look to the states with the harshest laws.

New York with it's 7 shot limit and new Jersey with no hollow points.

It's pretty much going to be a close distance issue you'd need it for. Basically a belly gun.

Stick it in their belly and pull the trigger.

One of these days, I might own a gun that is registered in my name, LOL.

Always thing twice before taking a fishing trip with a known enemy.

 

[Wore Out]

A 1911 in .45 ACP is my go to. But since we cant have one in the truck and only theoretically speaking a throwaway pistola like a mini .22 magnum wouldn't be bad

Only about 8 inches shorter than my 44, LOL. A gun should double as a baseball bat!

I have a Blackhawk 357 with a 7" barrel. @Lilbow has many more than I do.

 

[mndriver]

I got a Taurus 685 some years ago.

 

[Injun]

Smith & Wesson 669.

[Lilbow]

hmm... I have my 9mm in my personal rig all the time, wife carries a .38 or her 9mm, I have packed my Ruger Vaquero .45LC, and I need to get me a yote gun!

 

[ironpony]

Bren Gun. Accept no substitute.



...but do a better job of aiming th' darn thing!

 

[Humble pie]

I carried either a LC9 ruger or the smaller 380 lcp. Both are good concealed carry weapons. The trigger pull is a little stiff though. I no longer carry on the truck.

 

[ironpony]

Also a side by side shotgun isnt useful

But it's impressive when viewed at 6 inches from the business end.

Mike, Taurus has been selling the G2C millennium in 9mm subcompact for around $200. It holds 12+1, is compact enough to fit in the palm of your hand with a 3.3 inch barrel and cheap enough to not get upset if it gets scratched.

I have bought three of them, they are great little guns. They get really good reviews too. I've put 100 rds thru one with zero issues.
