First. You hold one (1) shot gun in EACH hand!
Second. You yell out "We don need no stinking badges!!!"

If you are driving use only one(1) shot gun! Safety first!!

I take my trailer hunting with me. And leave it at camp for most of deer season. My worst fear is theft. Because of that, I never leave mine alone in the trailer unless I am just running to town or dinner. And I always take them home. I'd be interested to see some ideas also.

Just have a "Easy Rider" gun rack in the back window of the camper.
It really gets their attention when you pull into a National Park.

I bolted a heavy-duty aluminum case to the floor under the bed. I keep them in there with a couple of good cut-proof locks.
Side-arms go where I go.

Shouldn't it just be along side the bed, loaded, but for safety, no rounds actually chambered.

If it is too secure you will not be able to use it when someone makes you need it.

Hi All!!!

My bed is up front in the TT...And I sleep farthest from the door... port side if you will.. My gun is mounted along side of the bed. if you come in you'll never see it because it's (if the bed is made) under the comforter! All I have to do is reach down and grab it whether if I'm in bed or not.

Oh yea one more thing...
Yes my wife does sleep closest to the door, and yes there is a good reason for it.
