But to answer the question I cant imagine any other places than, on yourself, the console, or in the back cubby's.
Criminals are everywhere. Not just in the bad parts of town.

I carry whenever I leave the house unless I'm going to NJ or DE.

I use a IWB holster from Crossbreed.

S&W 442 J-Frame snubbie .38 +P in an Uncle Mikes pocket holster fits perfectly in the front 1/3 of the console. I used a standard tool box foam divider cut to the width of the console to seperate it from the back portion of the console. It keeps other items from entering that area.

My general rule is that states that prohibit my carry don't need me to spend my money there.

I won't argue that one with you, but the other half works in DE & her family is in NJ so really can't avoid going there.

Got this off of one of the forums I used to be on:

Guns are like parachutes, if your ever in a situation that you need one and you dont have one, you'll probably never need one again.

Never thought of the foam idea to keep the "items" seperate.

ROFL I like how you put emphasis on the "r". I may live in Bama but chances are my accent sounds like yours since I grew up an Army brat and lived all around the world!

Console works for me in the Corvette. What was that old American Express commercial...."Don't leave home without it".

I keep mine in the console. Easy access while sitting in the drivers seat.

Washington state has pretty descent gun rights with both Open and Concealed carry allowed and not many restrictions on places you aren't allowed to go while carrying. Guess the poster would rather outsource his safety to a telephone number, hope for the best!

I prefer to prepare for the worst, but there are always 2 different types of people.

Will Medicare/Medicaid pay for a holster?

Lots of good comments here and good ideas.

State's laws very, and here concealed means concealed. Best be careful of something out in the open if you are stopped by LEO or you can end up having a very bad day. Like that idea of ankle carry if you pistol is small enough and you train to draw it. But I ware shorts 8 months a year. Cargo shorts or pants are good for pocket carry since you have good access when seated. Otherwise center console is good. I don't like the idea of under the seat because there are wires there and it really needs to be held down so it does not slide and become unreachable when you most need it or slide out get caught on something and have a ND.

Anti's (libitards) make good victims.

And this has what to do with a C6? If you can't figure out where to hide your side arm in your car maybe you shouldn't have a side arm!!
