Truck guns?

[mep1811]

I keep a Taurus Judge in my console. Nothing like all that double ought buck shot flying out. Of course, I have a backup to the Judge should things get worse.

I installed a lock box under the rear seats of the truck, and inside I've got a BCM 16" mid-length with ambi lower controls and a shiny new Noveske NSR rail (sweet rail system, light and comfy and modular ), along with a Blue Force Gear 10-speed bandoleer and 6 20-round magazines. In bear country I keep a Remington 870 with an 18" rifled slug barrel and 3" hard-cast Brenekes, generally a box of 00 buck as well. I CCW a Glock 19, and when I'm in the woods I open carry.
There's usually a Ruger 10/22 kicking around back there too, just for fun/small game.

Yeah, I go heavy, but out where I am it can be pretty remote and the police have a lot of ground to cover sometimes before they can help you.

I like this, Kel-Tec .40 carbine that folds down and uses standard Glock .40 mags

Glock 19 or SIG 556, although the SIG 556 is very heavy compared to a traditional AR15 style rifle.

Yes, heavy as well as just big IMO. The Sig gets mixed reviews from me. I want to like it but... meh, I guess years of training have left me biased toward the AR when it comes to 5.56 rifles. There are plenty of neat rifles like the Sig, the Steyr AUG and Galil but having tried all of them I still prefer an M4 style rifle when I want 5.56

I got to hold one of these at my gunsmith's shop and what a cool gun it is. It feels very solid. I think it would make a very good truck gun. This gun along with about 1000 other guns are on my want to get list.

I know exactly what you mean. I do love the Sig though. It shoots smooth and easy. Almost no recoil but I am positive that is due mostly to it's excessive weight and not attributable to any engineering secrets. The piston-gas function is nice when it comes to cleaning as well...but like you said, years of training have me tearing the stupid thing apart and cleaning it every time I fire it anyway.

Just fired my new M4A2 (full auto) today at the range. Has me thinking about trading in the Sig for something lighter.

BTW - I must say your website is very impressive and very well done.

Admittedly being in southern Arizona the majority of my excursions my fears are generally aimed at 2 legged predators rather than 4. As such my preference leans to the Sig 556, my custom Enfield 1. Mk 4 or my 1895ABL. None of them are traditional truck guns as I drive to work in my rig and I don't care to leave them in the car and risk its theft, however anytime I'm not going to work they're in the Jeep.

In Arizona I feel most 4 legged critters, at least in the southern part of the state, can safely be handled with my CCW a Sig P228 in 9mm.

If I move north later this year I'll adjust my loadout accordinly.

Nice choice...have one my myself in OD green.

Did you see that article a few years back documenting the discovery of a jaguar near Tucson (I think near Mount Lemmon)? Motivation for me to carry a nice brush gun like .45-70.
