Default Do you pack more then luggage in your Mustang?

Hi All, If your anything like me you may have other hobbies besides your Mustang. Mine is collecting cool guns. Recently I picked up a new carry gun made by Springfield Armory and it fits perfectly in the center console of my 2010 GT. If you share this hobby as well, check out the specs and I think you'll agree it makes for a nice accessory.

Well I have a sub box in my trunk and I can fit a beefy range bag with a ar and ak and lots of other stuff and then I just throw the 10/22 and the moss 500 on top of everything

Hey I never thought about that. I'll have to see how mine fits.

Hmmm I also was looking at a Springfield Armory .45 ACP. Planning on getting my concealed carry sometime later this year. There's a thread here that describes and shows pics of past/current members' mounted holster locations in their mustangs. Was planning on doing the same mod when I get my 5.0 in the future.

The back seat makes for a pretty good spot for my Mossberg .22LR in a hard case and the ammo box fits right next to the subwoofers in the trunk. Who said a mustang wasn't practical?

Practicality is one of the chief reasons I got my car. Although I dont know if its only an 09 thing that I can fold my rear seats down, I can carry pretty much anything I want.

On the carrying point, I went to a range this saturday and played with a couple rental .45s and 9mm... the .45 is a freaking cannon but imo, too much recoil and too innacurate compared to the 9mm. First time with the 9mm at 35 yards a nice 3' group right in the center at 25 yards. Gonna do concealed carry with my dad this summer and hope to get a Beretta 92. I know thats good mod money spent elsewhere, but I look at it as an investment in the safety and security of my baby.

i had an xd40 for a while, I really did not care for the grip safety and the trigger design.

The XDS looks interesting. I am now in a competition to win one. If any of my fellow Mustang owners would lend me a hand by clicking the link, I will get awarded 2 points for every click. Thanks Guys!
