So far, I believe, all your thought has been dedicated to R-hand access. Have you considered mounting points in the car that accommodate a L-hand draw?

Out of all the suggestions I have read, I believe cross-draw on your person would be your best bet. Just make sure the holster has a strong degree of cant to it or it will sit too far vertically and bind in the event that you have to draw. Many cross-draw holsters are intended for conventional (ie. standing) carry and do not work well from a sitting position.

Here is a pretty good example: http://www.action-direct.com/rlm23.html

And this looks like it might work well if you do decide to mount the holster in the car: http://www.desantisholster.com/n92.html

Now, having answered the original question, I can't resist weighing in on the debate, briefly. The situation in America is what it is and I agree with AusS2000, it is unfortunate. How you deal with it is up to you, from what I can gather from your posts, Black Nugget, we approach it in a similar manner. I hope you find a solution that suits you and pray that you are never forced to use it. Two final notes that should not be overlooked, never forget that a car makes a fine weapon, and that you should look for a way out of a situation, in this case driving, before looking for your gun. Be safe.

 

LOL, i truly did not believe that there would be this much controversy over this subject. Supprisingly enough, there are a few members of the boards who have PM'ed me as opposed to posting in this thread. However if they are doing so by wanting to be more secretive about their choice to conceal their weapon, or because they do not feel the need to debate these posts i am not sure.
Non-the-less i do want to make it known I do appreciate all the advise, friendly debate, and suggestions that have been offered in this thread

 

Make sure you check out the Kahr PM9 or PM40. Of all my guns this is by far my favorite and the only one I carry.

 

I'd like to start out by showing my thanks and appreciation for that last paragraph. Truly i do not want to ever be forced to draw my weapon, however i if i am ever in the situation to which i must draw my pistol blocked in, broken down, etc etc) then i must do what i must do to protect myself. However, if i am sitting up at a light and i see someone walking towards my car that looks suspecious, i will have no problem going through the light, as opposed to waiting for a conflict to arise.

I cannot view the first link that you have posted as I am at work right now and it is blocked by our servers. However that second link can be viewed. Between that and Dr T's post regarding a Kramer Leather Cross Draw Holster I truly believe i have found a solution.

 

hows that saying go?

"Guns dont kill people, bullets do. Guns just make them go really fast."

 

I like how people take your question as an opportunity to lecture you on guns, as well as to tell you that you shouldn't use it hastily. As if this is the first time you've thought of it. Like you just ran out and bought a gun to keep in your car in case the drive-thru screws up your order.

 

While I originally started carrying a pistol for self defense, I found that I get FAR more use out of it in regards to drive-thru screw ups.

When will they learn? They need to get the order right the first time or else I have to stop, get out of my car, and go storming into the place, whilst armed. I've found that if you are armed and act in a threatening manner you get much faster service and they tend to not screw up order the second time. Not to mention it is free and sometimes they even give me whatever cash they have on hand for what I assume in a sincere apology for their mistake.


I usually leave a bullet hole in the big picture of whatever I ordered to help remind them what the food is supposed to look like.

 

 

There is only one response i can give after reading this...
