Thread: Bolt security

Notwithstanding that a rifle without a bolt is just an odd shaped cricket bat, I think people tend to over think the whole rifle in the car while They fill up with petrol or take a piss thing. As long as the vehicle is locked and the vehicle is under surveillance (e.g. by the CCTV cameras at a service station) and the period of time away from the vehicle is reasonably limited then I don't see why any member of the Police would take exception (that is if they even knew there was a firearm in the vehicle). I have left a firearm in a vehicle under these circumstances literally hundreds of times over the years and most frequently by the air hose between the BP and Burger King in Rotorua.
