Unless you plan on stopping your car, getting out and charging in, I don't see the point. In the trunk I mean. You'd be better driving away in that case.

Would those drawers that go in the back of an SUV be consider "hidden" compartments?

Would those drawers that go in the back of an SUV be consider "hidden" compartments? View Quote If you're talking about those similar to "gun-vaults", I'm ASSuming it'd be legal since its specifically addressed in subsection (I): I) This section does not apply to a box, safe, container, or other item added to a vehicle for the purpose of securing valuables, electronics, or firearms provided that at the time of discovery the box, safe, container, or other item added to the vehicle does not contain a controlled substance or visible residue of a controlled substance. Keep in mind however, the recent arrest of a CCW permit holder arrested near Dallas for "traffic" infractions, failing to signal a turn. Guess it all depends on the disposition of the officer. Was about to do this to my wife's SUV, it has an unused factory compartment on the floor of the cargo area, seriously reconsidering now. ETA: If the "rifle" in question was actually a pistol build would it then be legal to conceal in such a compartment with a CCW? |

What about one of these bolted to the floor. Just keep a blanket or something thrown over it.

California has a hidden compartment law and a second law prohibiting the transportation of firearms in "Glove or utility compartments". Technically speaking the hidden compartment law thing is a stack on charge for narcotics cases and the firearms one pertains to considering the glove compartment as a locked container. But I wouldn't tempt fate with either of them. Neat to know I would have been a felon between 18-21 for my stash of booze in the rear wheelhouse of my old Celica (accessed by removing the rear seat cupholder). Considering I almost caught a felony at that age for having a basball bat in the back of my car, I guess luck was on my side. View Quote Well the glove or utility compartments applies to driver reachable compartments. The hidden compartment is in the Health & Safety Code and applies if carrying drugs |

You do know that the arresting officers don't nessaseraly know all of the laws...and can charge you with things that may technically be legal......but is it worth the initial /long term hassle ....you know the whole stupid games prizes shit....is it worth getting arrested ,paying bail,the lawyer cost,the car impound fee,gun confescated and beat to shit......really is it worth it?????why risk it.....

AR pistol is good to go, but even with concealed carry no long gun can be loaded in car.

I have one mounted to the lid of my toolbox in my truck. Funny thing is I go a LOT of places that will roll out a mirror to look under the truck. You have to open the glove box, open the console, put the shade deals down in the truck. They look in the toolbox but they never look under the lid.

With CCW I can have spare pistol mags correct? I believe you can have loaded rifle mags as long as they are stored in a separate container. I am told the pouches outside the riflecase are OK.

Yes, as long as you have a CCW this is correct, loaded mags cannot be inserted into rifle and can be in pouches in case.
