I thought they sold them at BiMart or GiJoes.

Bi-Marts dropped a lot of stuff lately, for one they stopped carrying horizontal propane tanks. Had to hunt all over the valley to find two between 15 bimarts. There's one Joes up here and its in the trendy area, so their hunting supplies are kinda few and far between.

You can put gun racks in the truck but it is getting so you can't drive onto a commercial parking lot if you have a gun there. They don't want to endanger their customers. In some places you can get arrested for having them and that goes against my grain!

Even 20 years ago I got pulled over by a cop-ette for having guns in my window rack. She was a little embarrassed when she couldn't figure out how to operate the actions.

Not worth the trouble keeping them exposed.

Since 90% of the time the only thing that'd be in them is a couple of $25 dollar Xterra fishing poles, I don't think I'm going to have too much trouble. When the time comes that I will be carrying rifles on there, the camper will be on (Making them invisible from the back) and I'll be on a 2 lane road back into BFN to go hunting.
