I'll have to check out gun safes. Any luck on Amazon.com or is it better to shop around locally?
Carry and don't tell them.Any tips on what to do with a concealed weapon when you get to work and work doesn't allow weapons? I'm not looking to start breaking into cars looking for guns, I just want some simple tips or tricks. Thanks for your help from a newbie.
I certainly didn't do this, nor would I advise anyone to do this. If you are terminated for violating a legitimate employee rule, you may find it real hard to find other employment. Also you will not draw unemployment benefits. A gun vault can be bolted into your vehicle. The other option is to purchase an inexpensive firearms just for that purpose and take your chances, odds are unless you advertise the fact you keep a firearm in the vehicle or leave it exposed it will never be stolen.Carry and don't tell them.
I would just leave it in your car/truck and not advertise to ANY co-workers that you have it in your car/truck. In fact I rarely engage in "gun conversations" at work, because people are nosy, then they start wanting to know what all you own.
If your going to have it thats your buisness but let me add. IF you do tell anyone you carry one they will rat you out in a heartbeat if they get into trouble for anything....even if it has nothing to do with you just to try to get Dad off their case!
Discretion is your friend and trust no one!
... odds are unless you advertise the fact you keep a firearm in the vehicle or leave it exposed it will never be stolen.
Sorry about the confusion on that post. I meant that I don't want you to give me the places/locations on your vehicle that you store your weapon. I'm just looking for general tips on what to do.
There are options:
1. Just leave it in your car.
2. Just leave it in your car locked in a vault designed for the purpose.
3. Leave a cheap gun in your car.
4. You don't need to abide by the rules. Carry it concealed at work.
5. Leave it at home.
#1, #2, and #3 all carry with them the possibility of losing your gun as well as your job and #4 guarantees termination.

While there may be other options available, "guys on the internet said it would be OK" isn't going to help when you're trying to avoid being fired.
Not quite true on losing your job for #1, #2 or #3. There are several places in Indiana that you CAN lose your job for keeping a firearm in your locked vehicle, but not very many. For the most part you are protected by the law as long as the weapon is secured in your locked vehicle, there is nothing most companies can do about it.
