Stirrer of the Pot
The bad news: Somebody broke into my truck (F150) yesterday while my HK P2000SK was in the center console.
The good news: The scumbag never got to lay his dirty hands on my pistol.
My HK was locked in an Autosafe made by Sentry Safe. This lockbox was screwed into the bottom of my center console and I also had the steel security cable that it comes with wrapped around the base of the front seat (I had drilled a hole through the side of the console and fed the cable out and around the seat base. The hole is below the level of the seat cushion so it can't be seen unless you're looking for it.) The perp had tried prying the safe open but failed, with only cosmetic damage being done to it.
I usually don't leave my pistol in my truck but I was at a bar with some friends and Florida law (as with most states) does not permit carrying in bars. In the end the lowlife managed to steal $6 or $7 from my truck and nothing else. I hope he uses it to buy some bad crack.
Anyway, the Autosafe performed flawlessly. It's not Fort Knox but the way I have it set up would require a theif to have a prybar, bolt cutters, and and more time than they probably would like to spend inside a vehicle they were robbing. Highly reccommended.
