Hello all, just thought it would be cool to see what you guys carry in your truck as your go to truck gun? As for mine it's either a marlin 1894 in 44mag or a marlin 30-30, I like the handiness and function of Lever action rifles, I'm just a fan of Lever actions in general. I most always carry either one with me when going to the lease/ranch.... So what's your truck gun?

I don't have any lever actions. You can bet there's always a Glock in the arm rest tho. Always.

No rifle in the truck, and it's ticking me off! I know what I want to put together, it's surfaced a few times, and a seller backed out, and two couldn't get with me on price. Patience is a virtue.

I don't drive a truck, but here is my trunk gun.


It has sights and a red dot now.
I bought a cheap .30-30, but the length was an issue. Thought about getting a mare's leg.

Every day when I am working on the ranch, my DDm4 is in the passenger seat. I usually also carry my High Standard .22 when I'm working. Lots of snakes have been shot this summer.

no land for now so much truck gun is just a 1911, sometimes a sd subcompact

Hoping in the next year or two to get some land or a lease and have a 6.8 I'm building for a truck gun for that

M1 Garand. Might be a field or rack grade (it's a frankenGarand I picked up on this board actually)

It busts/vaporizes oranges and cantelopes at 100 yards ... good enough.

When I'm running the lease I always have my Win 94 trapper 44mag and my 6.8. The AR rides in the seat and trapper on the dash.....until I get me a floor mounted rack
