Does anyone have a long gun that they dedicate to carrying in there trucks at all times? If so what caliber or gauge do you have? Thinking about putting one in my truck but worried about theft and what I have to do to make sure it's legal. In Missouri it's my understanding that you can carry a loaded conceld hand gun in your vehicle legal but not sure about long guns or shotguns.

Hard to beat a Ruger 10/22.

My conceal carry is a Kimber Crimson Carry II. Behind the seat Stoeger Double Defense 12 gauge loaded with 2 3/4" 00 buckshot and when small game season opens, i.e. squirrels, my Browning SA 22 is added behind the seat.

I keep a camo single shot 12 ga. with an elastic shell holder on the buttstock loaded with OO Buck, and some Hevi #5s. I used to carry an SKS that a buddy needed to control coyotes and wild dogs at his horse farm, so I gave it to him.
For a time I carried a Ruger 77/22 Mag in stainless with a composite stock, but I'd miss that one too much if it got stolen.
