With such limited storage in the GX, if you carry, I've tried to figure out a safe and workable location to mount an accessible pistol and came up with this idea.

Two seasons ago I bought a CC vest that had 2 velco-backed adjustable holsters. These holsters stick to the carpeted wall of the console like glue. Mounted here, the firearm is out of the way, yet easily at my right hand.

Pictured is a Sig 229 and a smaller Sig 938. Here's the link to the vest if anyone has similar interest.

On every vehicle I just tuck it right along the right side of the driver's seat between the seat cushion and the center console. Put it slide-down, "aimed" at the back seats with the grip sticking straight up. I also keep a large knife (very large knife) in a leather sheath tucked down there at the very bottom so the pistol/holster combo sits on top of the knife, and therefore sits up a bit higher.

That looks great. Wonder if I should put in the “battery” bulge, but instead of batteries it’s a small armory in the trunk.

Think CBP would mind a small collection of SBR’s under the floor?

You're in Canada....who's going to check?
 
I try to just keep mine on my belt in a paddle holster. Keep in mind i'm full time LE. When I'm off, I generally carry a Sig P365 Legion in a low profile Red Hill Tactical ISWB holster. It fits in the cup holder nicely between stops. The cool box is pretty worthless and you already know.

I like that set up - but would want to less visible. I would not want to forget it there when I ran into a store and have it be visible.
