Dodge factory lockable gun rack

[ARsR4ME]

Thought I would share a good way to carry a AR15 in your Dodge mega cab.

The first thing is to make sure no one can see the rifle.

Unless you want them to or you need it.

Fold the hangers out and open the covers to the car seat anchors

You can also get a 7" long (when locked) cable lock and run it threw the anchor like so.

Which will let you lock the rifle to the truck.

If you don't want it locked or don't need it just lock the free end and push it into the hole and it's out of the way.

Looks good, but two suggestions.

Get some plastic coated SS cable and make a better cable with loops in the end and lock them with a real lock. Those crappy ones are made to keep 5 year olds from using a gun, with the leverage of that rifle in hand one could easily rip that lock in two I'd guess.

Also, wrap through the carry handle and not the trigger guard, again with the leverage the rifle provides I'll bet that trigger guard would snap right off with a good tug.

Or, a thief could just fold the trigger guard down like it's designed to do! Nevertheless, nice improvisation!

Awesome idea! Going to look at my Tacoma and see if my truck has any options

Re: Dodge factory lockable gun rack

you might loop it thru the carry handle too so they dont take your upper off, and if its tight enough, even if they did fold the trigger guard down, it would still be secure. nice idea

found a few more with yahoo image search

my fave, lol
