If no safe, then get creative. I USED to have a snub nosed 44 spl. Hidden inside the steering wheel of my F150. I would take it out when I got in the truck and hide I when it was going to be parked for a long period of time. Of course there was no tools nessecary to do so due to the make and model of my truck. And I don't know any theif who would attemp to dissemble my steering wheel for valubles.
