Only applicable to those who have a CCW (Concealed Carry Weapon) permit!!!!

I have two pistols (Springfield Armory XD9 w/ 4" barrel and a Berreta PX4 Storm Subcompact 9mm). The Springfield I keep at home with the laser and light attached and the Berreta is my CCW piece.

I previously kept the Berreta in the console on the dash in front of the driver, but realized that in an emergency situation it actually isnt the most practical location. Good for storage bad for real life use.

After much thought, I came up with this idea and it cost me all of $18 at Wally World. Its a universal holster, which is great in case I decide to carry the Springfield or even if I decide to get a different gun. It has a thumb break to keep it secure and also holds an extra magazine. I also didnt want to drill any holes.

The holster is ambidextrous and all you have to do is switch everything around (if youre a righty) to the lefty position. It attaches with the belt clip right under the steering wheel and is pretty firm. Again, if youre a righty, in order to draw with your right hand from the drivers seat, you have to FLIP AROUND THE CLIP AND THUMB BREAK on the holster as if you were a lefty.

So far its secure, BARELY visible (the gun comes with me when I leave the FJ), EASILY accessible and costs a fraction of the cost of a fancy gun-specific holster. Oh yeah, and NO HOLES TO DRILL!!

I like that! Is it just clipped to the plastic under the steering wheel? Does it pull or damage the plastic? And does it go on and off easy? I usually carry a Glock 27 and ive been looking for a simple way to mount it without drilling holes and I think you may have just found it!

Yep I think it will work perfect ill post some pics when I get it up there. Good job, good find.

Great! Cant wait to see your pics! Thanks man

Nice! I like it.

Great idea. I was looking at an under the steering wheel holster on-line for like $50...thiiseems much easier and certainly cheaper. I just took my CCH class 2 weeks ago and have my paperwork in. Guess it takes 4-6 weeks for the permit. My OD Green XDM 9 doesn't do much good locked away in the back of my FJ...

Great job Rolando! Awesome find! I like it!

Just stopped by Wally World and picked up the Blackhawk...seems like it will work great. I will probably modify the clip to better fit over the plastic and try to make it fit closer to the column.

Thanks for the tip...

My OD XDm

Nice looking Springfield! I always liked the OD. Let me know how your modification turns out... I might have to copy you if it works well!!!
