Can't use it if its left in the car, and If its not on me, someone can steal it and use it against me.
be safe.

Carrying a handgun in and out of the car is too much trouble? Your not disassembling it, cleaning it and reloading the magazines. You take your keys in with you every night I assume? What is the difference? About 7 ounces? Sorry to be rude but this just seems pure lazy. You literally have to reach over, grab it and walk the same way and to the same place you would walk anyway.I ask because there are times that it might be more convenient to just leave a particular handgun in the car 24/7 instead of hauling it in to the house every night and and back out every morning.
I was thinking about it and I look at the gun as say $700 but the car is worth $45,000 sitting outside so why focus on the cheap gun? The flip side is it would bother me if someone broke the glass and stole the gun since it is the only thing of value in the car.
THIS!The value if the gun is irrelevant to me. The fear that I would be arming a criminal who could use it to rib or murder someone would be my fear.

Leaving a handgun in your car 24/7?
Yeah, and if it was loaded with your handloaded SD ammo they will next go after you for that ...Consider what the legal/financial consequences may be if the attorney of a person injured or killed with your stolen gun convinces a jury you failed to adequately safeguard your weapon.
They probably won't be going after the dirtbag who stole it, who's likely unemployed and doesn't own property. Which leaves you holding the bag.

The legal issues may slightly vary from state to state,
and civil cases have a distressing tendency to go who knows where before everyone is done paying off their lawyers.
I drive a convertible, it would be stupid for me to leave anything of value in a car with a soft top. I do not even lock the doors, there is nothing in there that would cost as much as replacing the top.
