Depending on area most trunk carry is OK.

Most are stolen at night from:
UNLOCKED street or driveway parked cars
Gyms & public parks
Hotels (Why anyone would leave their heater in trunk there )
Home break-ins

Daytime locked cars depending on area are usually OK.

Also why Ford offers this. Quite a cool feature, although I'm not sure how good of a safe it really is.

Yes, I recently saw this companies website and think that it offers sufficient security for a pistol. However, I wouldn't leave one in the vehicle overnight. If you're too lazy to carry it, you shouldn't have one.

In NJ if you have a firearm in your car you can only drive directly to-from an authorized destination (range or gunsmith) without any stops. The state doesn't want anyone stealing a firearm from a vehicle.

Similarly, in MA........ you can carry on your person if you are properly licensed.... for a firearm in a vehicle (if not on your person)... MUST be unloaded, and Locked inside of a container (glove box or console do not count) outside of the reach of the driver (preferred is the trunk if the vehicle is so equipped)... If you have ammo for the firearm, it must be located in a separate location from the firearm during transport.

It isnt my primary carry gun i have a rotation of carry guns i keep on me. Its more of a backup or if i forget to grab mine.
I have an ohio ccw and am allowed to carry wherever i want in my vehicle with it loaded.

Interested in seeing the AR9 build...which lower did you go with?

This afternoon I went over to my arms dealer of choice ( http://osarms.com ) order a P365 while I wait for my pistol purchasing permit. I was surprised to find they just received a shipment from Sig Sauer and they had every variation in stock. I left 50% to reserve a P365 w/ manual safety. Ottomanelli's is operating as appointment only, and the place was still the busiest I've ever seen.

ep armory 80% polymer

may end up going AR40 though as I have a ton of 40s&w ammo and 9mm is getting pricey around here.

If we follow this weird "AR9" and "AR40" nomenclature, then I guess you guys call a traditional AR15 an "AR223" or "AR556?" And don't you guys get all confused by an AR10? Is it an "ARCreedmoor" and "AR308" too?
The industry (as far as I know) calls them a Pistol Caliber Carbine (PCC). Just call it a "PCC" for a 9mm because that's what the majority are, and perhaps if you're building an oddball 45ACP PCC I'd personally use "a PCC in 45ACP." Even "PCC-45" would be better.

I haven't heard anyone call them that, but admittedly I'm no expert, and it's not exactly like people talk guns often around here (NY-Metro), so I'll yield my position here. I just see everyone call them PCCs when I shop for them.

Yeah but when you build 80%'s of these they are all mostly called AR9 lowers to differentiate it from regular ar15's

I want something small yet powerful.

Thanks!

Thinking about buying a new AR15 after i sold mine a few months before all this madness with covid and BLM started. Are prices absolutely ridiculous right now?

AR308 is technically called an AR10 because it was named by Armalite themselves; ONLY for the 308, well, the 762 NATO version.

It's just nomenclature that exists in almost every category. Might be a pet peeve of yours, but it's definitely easy to remember (excluding the AR10 and 15) and quicker to say than, for example, this is my AR-15, but in 9mm. OR, this is my AR9.

Not as ridiculous as hand sanitizer and mask prices, but they are somewhat inflated. Just browse at a more reputable seller like brownells (when they have their coupon discounts), PSA, Grabagun,etc.

Elections are coming up, so I wouldn't count on prices to go down, especially after Trump practically conceding his upcoming election on Fox News.

I think the best vehicle storage for a pistol is the C7 vette.

Not really safe or secure, but very Bond-like to push a button and the nav screen goes down to reveal a hidden compartment.

Bad idea. Unless they are all the same. But then why have a rotation.

As a competitive shooter (a while back) I shot 1911's in competition and got tired of carrying (concealed) a heavy gun, so I switched to a 9mm double stack (S&W M59).

One evening a bunch of us were at the range practicing and someone said let's shoot a few stages with our carry guns. What an eye opener. Stuff that I did second nature with the 1911 was foreign with the M59. I'm not just talking about the difference in trigger pull, but mag release and slide release the way the mag feels being swapped. I can only imagine the additional confusion were you to have to do it in a "stress" situation.

Just one mans opinion......

[Smgs1992]

I respect your opinion. However i train with all my guns regularly and choose what to carry dependent upon the situation. Winter carry gets the bigger guns such as my glock 23 or 1911 while summer carry is usually my G2C or sometimes especially if im wearing shorts a 6shot J frame. However sometimes i will mix it up especially if i think im going into a high risk area i may carry the glock even during the summer.

It also depends if its nighttime i am more likely to grab the 1911 as it has nightsights as does the glock. I havent found any for the G2C yet
