Truck guns?

[mogwildRW1]

My 870 has a non-restricted (fully legal) 8.5" barrel, and is 26.5" with the full stock, makes a nice truck gun, holds 4 3" magnum shells.

TahoeMD those laws are probably carryovers from the 20's gang wars!
My all time favorite truck gun is an Enfield #5. 10 rounds of .303 beats 30 rounds from my AR. That thing is just handy. Not to mention intimidating with the flash hider. I have to admit the new Ruger Scout is tempting though, and a bit cheaper than that Copilot (want! but not enough to spend that kind of money).

So, the top one is restricted with a pistol grip.... umm....

What happens if you have a folding or detachable stock on the top one ?

 

[BPMOU]

I carry my Glock 26 with w backup Glock 19 mag in a Archangel daily, or my Glock 19 in the same manner.

Best Truck gun is a cheap <$500 CIA AK tantal underfolder. 30 round mags are cheap, ammo is cheap to buy online and it's a natural switch from my Arsenal SGL.

then its restricted (measured at its shortest usable configuration)

I find an old Savage Model C .222 over a 20 guage just about perfect for a truck gun. But in the future I may need to carry a M1A Springfield if you know what I mean?

Ruger 10/22 is carried in the truck for snakes and the like, or just plinking. Could be used to scrounge up some game in season. For big game I upgrade to a .270win or .300RUM. For self defense that is another story....

 

[plainjaneFJC]

I always have a pistol on my person, but a lot of times on a back country trip I will take a cheap built-from-parts AR-15 with a collapsing stock that fits about anywhere in the truck.

Im not an AR expert but the barrel on that gun looks like a little more than what most would consider "cheap". Maybe that was sarcasm?

I'm another Canuck with a short 870. I replaced the furniture with plastic stuff and don't worry if it gets banged around a bit (even though it has a very nice Wingmaster receiver)

 

[john101477]

I have a wingmaster that i have fired a total of 3 times in 4 years. just never been a shotgun guy. Now I love my rifles, But I do not feel the need to carry 100% of the time. Being that I travel a lot for work a concealed weapons permit is a waste of time in any one state. I usually have a pistol Taurus PT145PRO close to hand. I also carry a 22-250 or 30.06 in the back country.

No sarcasm; built them mostly from sale and spare parts. For example, Spike sold the lowers very cheaply because they had been custom-engraved for some customer who didn't pay for them, so I got them for next to nothing. The Eotech site on the one cost about as much or more than the rest of the parts to build it.

 

[goin camping]

When out exploring our California deserts I carry a Glock 19 and a Saiga in 7.62. I aim for reliability in working guns.

 

[Ray_G]

Put something together for fun off a parts kit AK; decided she needed a refresh and went overboard but in the end will fulfill duties that go beyond the G19.

 

[Area52]

This is a frequent carry, but it could just as easily be a Sig 556 or AR.

It depends on what I feel like bringing along.

I like the clean lines of that. On my wish list for someday.

Package fits in tight places. Nine rounds and a cookie cutter tip to "poke'm in the nose"
