So, it would be safe enough to have in the compartment.

So today, I ordered a left and right hand kydex bodies from comptac for the M&P45. The body fits pretty flush with the current center console...I am hoping that the armrest(I have not purchased yet) gives the additional space to fit the full frame.

The plan is to modify the left and right side's of the bodies so that with the thinnest firearm the notch under the trigger guards butt up against one another, then spring load it so it can accommodate larger frame firearms.

I guess if I am successful I will have to add this to the list of DIY's I need to do.

I have one of those for my G23 that just sits in my safe. Can't wait to see your project.

The Kydex IWB holster in my pic is by RDR if anyone cares. By far the most practical and comfy iwb holster I've owned.

I discovered yesterday that the Remora works great for wedging securely between the seat and center console as well. Grip towards the front for easier grabbing:

I really dig that holster you got there...possibly more than the MTAC for full frame. Might order one for my glock as well. Comptac is 6 days behind in production due to orders...hopefully I will it in a week.

Got one of those for my sheild. works great for shorts and working out.

The remora holsters have been getting good reviews by CCWers for a few years now. Only reason I don't have one is that I've got good, comfortable holsters for all my carry needs.

You could say the same about aftermarket car parts? To each their own. Just because you don't see the significance in owning something doesn't mean others share the same opinion.


I'd recommend just putting it in the glove box and not advertising that it's in there. What's the point of carrying it in the car if you don't have quick and easy access if you end up really needing it? Definitely never leave it in there unattended though. If you do need to leave it in the car put it in the gun box and hide it under the trunk matt. This is how I've been doing it at least and has seemed to work fine.

How much space is behind the drivers rh knee pad? If the space is there you could put a hinge on the pad and have a nice secret storage spot.

That is one of the spots I thought would be good. No one has really looked into that yet. I would figure from some of the tear down pictures from when people on here have installed leather knee pads there is 1-1.25in that is not being used. I took a look in my car, a folding hinge would not work but a sliding hinge could work. If you want to take a look into that...definitely let us know...that is a little more than I am willing to tackle.


I am planning on putting it in the center console for daily driving, and in the glovebox when I have to go into a 'restricted freedom zone'.

Id be more worried about living in a world where people keep handguns in their cars.

It's funny that Canadian cities, while not seeing a fraction of the gun crimes seen in thee US, are still seeing an upward trend.

Oh and guess what, a very significant percentage of these illegal firearms are smuggled in from the US.

Bottom line, proliferation of guns, proliferation of shootings/gun crimes. It's inevitable.

The US constitutional right to bear arms if in the event they need to defend themselves from a government gone bad is a grossly outdated and irrelevant law. Missiles and other weapons far far overpower firearms.

I guess they dug themselves a hole they just cant get out of. I just laugh at the gun defenders and the world they have built around themselves. Sadly, its the one thing I really hate about the US. Calling that freedom, just like the right to die of cancer because you cant afford chemo. Morons.

Glovebox is NOT for fast easy access when you are already facing an armed thug.

It's good for a quick hide when you're leaving your vehicle and you can't take it with you.

Best and most secure place (for hiding or NOT hiding) is on your person. Same for your phone (never had mine stolen... though I also don't leave it sitting in the car except on rare occasions when I forget).

And you're commenting in this thread why?

How are you helping the discussion of how best to access a self defense tool in one's BRZ/FR-S?

Yes you are right, sorry for expressing my opinion. I guess its just a bit shocking for many non US citizens. I will leave it be. Hope you never have to fear the wrong end of a gun, my friend.

Oh you're free to express your opinion, but you don't have to go posting it in a place where it has no business. If we were talking about gun rights, you'd be perfectly justified in airing your anti-gun position.

In this thread? It's just trolling. The OP wasn't asking if he should. He was asking how best to do it.

I have no reason to fear the wrong end of a gun. Some punk tries it, they'll end up facing the business end of mine, and all bets are that I'm MUCH more proficient than he is.
