Anyone thought of a place to store your shotgun or rifle in the truck?

I wonder if that special ford insert thing could house a cool gun holder (for long barreled firearms)? 🤔

I think your best bet would be if someone came out with a safe that replaces the under seat storage bins in the rear.
As a side note, I noticed that there was a second safe listed as a Ford accessory (in addition to the console safe) on the list provided by Tim bartz the other day. Maybe that would fix a SBR?

The new accessories list has a locking middle console to store your death tools.

The entire Maverick has potential. I'm liking inside under the rear seat. My blaster folds in half down to just over 21 inches. In my Honda Fit I've got it wrapped up and chained to the rear seat latch, works out good for me.

The sky's the limit with this Maverick.

Thanks for the tip on consolevaults.com, thinking seriously about one for the rear underseat cubby.

I don't see why a rear window rack with generic (But seemingly hard to find) hardware wouldn't work. I doubt the more modern overhead racks would work though, as the Maverick has a molded ceiling that defies easy mounting points.

I'm not sure rifle racks in trucks are really relevant anymore though. I know the old folks like to blame PC culture for the demise of the rifle rack, but I live in a big hunting area where 999/1000 people wouldn't give two shits about seeing one and yet no one sees them. I think people just came to the conclusion that blocking your view of the rear window isn't worth it and hanging expensive guns in a truck you park in public is a bad financial decision.

Seems like there is plenty of unused space on the dash. Duct tape there perhaps. Or a passenger footwell scabbard?

GTBuzz sent me this link which gives a good idea of the rear under seat room.
It looks like a long gun ought to be able to fit at least in the Ecoboost version.
On my F150 I have some cable loops which prevent the rear seat from being raised when padlocks are used.

Quite simple, under the back seat, out of sight, quick and easy to get to, there's a lot of room there for long guns and other gear.

I have a magnet mounted up front too, had to build a spacer for it and mount it on its "side" for hang gun.

Stay loaded!
