Nope. Just a 5 BC dry chem. I do have a small Halon 1211 I got years ago on closeout. Keep it near my computers and home entertainment stuff. Halon is a use and run product. Any of the Halon that gets transformed by the fire tends to mutate into deadly stuff.

Also have a 5lb CO2 that someone was tossing. IIRC, it was about $45 to get it re-certified and refilled.

Re: What's behind your seat..?

My reason for not going with the plastic store bought box again is that I wanted long bins for items, like the jack and handle and rolled up jumper cables, etc., and the purchased box had relatively small fixed shelves.

Also, if a long gun were stored I would want to put it in a custom sized cubby with a locking front panel hinged on the bottom side. I have known guys who had their rifle stolen from their truck and it was an easy grab and go for the thief. I think if a thief has to do some extra looking and fiddling to break another lock or two it might slow him down enough to think twice about dawdling around.
