WRONG.
You do not need a permit to carry a firearm in your vehicle in the state of Montana!!
According to Mr. C. Mark Fowler, Assistant Attorney General for the state of Montana, there are no restrictions as to how you can/cannot carry a firearm in your vehicle. Open-Carry, Concealed-Carry, on your dash, on the seat, hanging from the rear-view mirror or anywhere else, including in a rack in the back window of your pick-up, there are no restrictions.
You can even carry concealed INSIDE YOUR VEHICLE without a permit. The permit is only for concealed carry inside the city limits. You do not need it if you're carrying concealed in your vehicle because the state still views that as an extension of your own private property.
