One thing that seldom gets mentioned is that handis not having a bolt or other things sticking out of their sides makes them especially nice truck guns. Don't know if they still make them or not but there used to be such things called pick pockets. Basically just a heavy piece of fabric folded and sewed into an open ended tube big enough for your rifle to fit in, the wife has made the last few I have used. It is screwed to the back of the pickup cab just below the back window so that the seat covers it. The gun is protected, doesn't bounce around with the rest of the stuff behind the seat, and if you stick the rifle in far enough that the end of the tube kind of naturally closes, I think there is a good chance a thief could look behind your seat and never see your gun.
Handis, and especially handy handis like yours are the perfect truck gun in my estimation, especially when mated to a pickpocket. The rifle slips in and out without a hitch, and if one should ever get stolen, it ain't like loosing a $1500 bolt gun, or like you've turned an AR 15 over to a criminal.
