I spoke to the owner there yesterday and they are going to be at the Mesquite show this weekend showing their wares. The design looks pretty cool.
I thought I had another link to a company that makes a holster that straps to the seat of the car, and puts the pistol grip under the back of the knee. The gun is actually concealed by the thigh. But I can't find it.

Here is another possible solution. It looks like a very solid system.

They have some favorable reviews on their site.

That system and similar rigs are what encouraged me to use an economy kydex holster for those applications. I bought a few of the paddle style Houston Holsters for my gun. Id rilled out the rivets that hold the paddle on, that gives three holes that then allow the holster to be mounted nearly anywhere. They grip the pistol pretty tight when new, so upside down in the trunk of the car is not a problem. :cool:

I understand this may be blatanly obvious, but I failed to see it mention and felt inclined to my 2 pence.

#1 carjacking deterrent is a locked door. most vehicles already have autolocking doors, my Titan does not. I try to make a point of locking it as soon as I am all the way in my big-rig. My ol' lady gives me all kinds of jazz about it, but she can just deal...

anyway, the point being if they can't open your door to pull you from yer personnel transport, they're a lot less likely to get the advantage.

sidenot, I as well will typically pull holster and all out, and set it either in my doorside beverage containment unit (or the soda holster, as I call it), or in the center console with the lid shut. don't want my PDA (personal defense assistant) floating all aboot in the horror of horrors of an MVA.

Well said and it deserved mention, as did Greybeard's piece about simply driving away if possible.

Ever think about getting autolocks retrofitted? I have no experience with Nissans, so I have no idea how difficult it would be. At least you are up rather high when you shift the holster and hardware into position for driving, so if it stays put and works for you then :thumbsup: .

And . . . do I sense thread-crossing? (Note text in red.)

absolutely, eh!
and thanks for the idea, have to look into that, as well.
yeah, the high ride certainly helps. also has the "cat eye" mirrors to help keep a solid lay o' the land.

eh.
