Completely agree. A truck gun is entirely pointless unless you are a LEO. If you have time to get to a truck gun, you have time to take defensive cover.
In what situation would you use it?
If it’s road rage, good luck claiming self defense, at least in Texas.
Active shooter? I wouldn’t run into an active shooter scene with an AR, that’s a good way to become target practice for the responding swat team.
Plus you have to run to your car, grab the gun, rack the charging handle then you can engage.
Trust me, I tried to justify a truck gun because man I want to roll around with my AR-15 but I just couldn’t find a benefit to outweigh the risk of theft. I just settled on a Glock with a RMR and TLR7 and trained my ass off with it, as that is the gun I’m most likely to use to protect life.
