Ok...laid up on pain killers, with too much time on my hands. Planning on getting a new Wrangler in next couple of months. Any suggestions for securing a truck rifle in the vehicle? Even after all these years I get catalogs from Galls, and have seen various rifle locks in them. Ideas anyone? Probably be a Mini 30 or a Marlin Leveraction of some type. Maybe behind back seat or lying long ways along side by drivers seat.
Chime in if the meds have me suggesting bad ideas.

'Securing' a TRUCK rifle in a JEEP Wrangler? "
Does this or will this Wrangler have a solid roof / ceiling? Or will it be convertable?
If the wrangler has a static non-removable top, what about suspending it above the cabin space? Either perpendicular to the front-rear axis, or even parallel with the front-rear axis? Isn't there unused space above the cab something flat and long could be stored / carried (when not in use)? IN or not-IN a long flat [gun] case?
Ive thought about this very thing when trying to figure a way to transport cased firearms without cluttering the vehicle or being too conspicuous. (I don't at the moment of have a JEEP Cherokee, but have thought about finding one to refurbish/rebuild).
Also when "casing" a vehicle to rob, how many crooks when looking in windows stoop down to up at the ceiling?As for "securing" something, that term could mean locking up something so it can't be seen or removed/stolen, or simply making something
immobile when driving the vehicle (so it doesn't slide or move around).
I would need to know more details about this project!
