Reply to comment by raindeerpie in Richmond saw notable drop in murders last year, but thefts from vehicles caused property crimes to soar by ThatChildNextDoor
I'm not sure if there are enough long gun thefts from cars that it is as big of an issue, usually if you're out and about with a long gun you're either going to the range or hunting rather than keeping it in the car constantly(which IMO is a bad idea anyway).
Most of mine are just in soft cases too for transport so while I could stick a little luggage lock on the zippers it wouldn't really accomplish anything nor would they fit in a glovebox or car safe.

I think you're right. but I just keep picturing gunracks in the back of pick up trucks.

It's a big state so it probably exists somewhere but I've never seen a gun rack in a pickup truck in Virginia

I saw one or two 30 years ago or so, but haven't seen one since. They're definitely not remotely common.

Yeah and I know a lot of people with guns, people who hunt, and people who own pickup trucks so I would figure I'd have a higher chance of seeing them than most
