Concealing a rifle in a Jeep

[lovemachine]

I've been searching for a way to do it. I'd like to be able to keep a rifle, specifically an AR, concealed in my Jeep Wrangler. I was hoping to find a strong/lock box for this purpose. But haven't found anything for a rifle yet.
Jeeps are rather small inside compared to a truck and a car. I'd like to find something where I could leave the rifle in without fear of being seen and stolen. Plus being able to find a place inside the Jeep.

Anyone have any ideas?

Would somethinhpg like this work for you

Auto Safe by Olympic - Auto Safe - Storage and Organizers - Interior Parts and Accessories - by 4 Wheel Parts-RH3

I think it goes all the way across the back on top of the wheel wells

How much space are you willing to use?

The whole back end?
TJ LJ & YJ Security Deck Enclosure Jeep Wrangler

or

Rear Cargo Security Lockbox for Jeep Wrangler, JK, Unlimited LJ, TJ, YJ, CJ-7, CJ-5

Just behind the rear seat?
TJ Security Storage Trunk for Jeep Wrangler, TJ

Or, under the rear seat?
Underseat Security Drawer for Jeep, CJ-5, CJ-7, Wrangler, YJ, TJ

I may end up with the last one, so I can keep my seat. They ain't cheap, though!

You didnt say what year of jeep wrangler you have, but Tuffy makes some awesome secure storeage for jeeps:

Steel Automotive Security and Storage Boxes with the Pry-Guard Locking system for Theft Protection in Jeep Vehicles

Here is one I always considered getting. It sits under the back seat (you have to raise it a bit if I remember correctly) and pulls out to the rear:

Can you weld? I have been thinking about welding up my own. Sort of a false floor idea on some roller bearings for my Montero.

Holy crap. It's a 2005. And I had no idea these existed. These are pretty much what I've been looking for.
Thanks guys!

Get an AK.
Tie it to the bottom of the Jeep with baling wire.



Had to offer something. Sorry I'm not familiar with the interior of jeeps.

If you had a CJ you could bolt a cop type vertical rack right to the dash, now that would be cool

 

[infidel]

Or under the hood! Make a rack on the bottom of the hood!

"Excuse me sir, do you have motor problems?"
"BACK THE **** UP"

Edit: must also be an AK47 so that the gun doesn't melt.

AR's are better

Why hide it, again?

Think we could drive it to the City Market in Indy?

Don't see why not. Long guns aren't regulated. No LTCH needed! It is a rifle, after all....

Yeah, yeah, I'm sure there is SOME code out there for this....

The under seat slide out is excellent. I had one in a TJ I had and had room for all kinds of things in it.

This! Everything for a jeep. I have the large tuffy security drawer in my 06 unlimited. It's awesome, but would delete the rear seat in anything but an unlimited. In the unlimited you can keep the rear seat. Very tough, and can essentially be double locked because it is so close to the rear access that if you lock the drawer AND the rear access door you get double protection.

Party pooper! It would make a heck of a coyote gun (by the pack).

Maybe a .50 cal could be more "sporting"? Definately need a stamp for it, though!

Back on topic:
I order from 4WD.com now and then. You can get stuff delivered to 4Wheel Parts on the east side for free, usually. I think JCWhitney also carries Tuffy products, and you can sometimes find a deal there.

Even if you don't go with Tuffy, I would stick with a steel/metal box rather than plastic. Especially if you will have a $1000+ rifle in it!
