Good ideas. I’m looking for a better way to secure firearms when I travel to matches. I need room for 2 large pistols. I’ve been looking at the BOSS strong box too. https://www.bossstrongbox.com/toploaders/pistol-boxes

I had a Lock'erDown in my 2014 Tundra. I mounted gun magnets onto the walls using Chicago screws. It served me well, but they went out of business.
In my new 2026 Tundra, I opted for the Console Vault. Unfortunately, their electronic lock isn't available for this model due to its size. I never leave a firearm in my vehicle overnight. But I do keep cash and other valuables, and a full-sized pistol will fit if needed. I also have their latch-activated LodeStar™ LED Light I'm very happy with it.

thanks all I found a console vault for my Tacoma and I'll use the Micro vault for my Camry under the seat. I don't think either will stop a skilled and determined thief but they should seriously slow down the smash and grab types and stop an accidental find by say grand kid.
I've always considered myself a good, responsible gun owner...Guns secured at home, ammo, etc. My daughters job provides her with a house, they pay for everything, only thing is no guns. Out of respect I never carry when I visit but couple weeks ago I was called on an emergency while I was out and I stashed my LCP in the truck when I arrived. I seldom carry that gun and with what went on I honestly forgot for a week or so before I missed it. Not good I know so I want a secure place to put it...
