New to the site and been spending a lot of time just poking around. BTW I live in Hickory, NC. My question is about storeing a firearm in an unoccupied car. I was going to OC my handgun into Charlotte this weekend. I'll be spending most of the day out of the vehicle. I have read somewhere, can't recall, that you can leave the firearm in plain view. Sounds like a bad idea. It seems that I could lock the gun in the case unloaded, but that makes for some fumbling with things when I get back in the car. I am going to a group function that does not allow firearms, so though OC is legal I am going to respect the rules. I have a Toyota Tacoma extra cab so no trunk either. Anybody else have this issue with their trucks? Oh and my glove box does not even lock. :banghead: So, will I be stuck unloading and locking the gun up when I leave the vehicle? Thanks for any help and great site!
