I just don't care to be around 2nf hand smoke, especially not for my 2 yr old.

Default hmm.

In my past cars I used to mound it under the dash behind the stereo and stuff (Bonnevilles have a pass-through up there), was wondering about the a6, I'm thinking either trunk compartments, to the back of a back seat or 2 small ones, one in each rear map pocket (in the door, provided I can find ones small enough to fit. and if a small one doesn't do the just, let it burn. yeah, all my cars have been non-smoking.


and you could always get an extinguisher painted gold and hang it from the mirror for the ultimate in bling...sorry, couldn't resist

Default Yeah, a service .38 wouldn't do it. I'd prefer a Barrett Light 50 for smokers. :)

oh wait...you meant the extinquisher...I've just got one of those little 1lb B/C units that you usually find on small boats.

Cheers,

Default Glock 23F: small & light

and easier to weild than a FN-P90. in all seriousness, I find that my hands are more threatening than a gun to people, agony is worse than death.

or a new use for the funk button: passenger ejector, for people who light up in your car.

Default It's the only gun I have, and besides, anything larger would leave too much of a mess.

Ideally, a .22 because it doesn't have the velocity for an exit wound.

Default I was thinking more of...

move the seat all the way forward, open door, and dump them out. yeah, they could grab onto the seat and you might lose the door, but hey, on it's way off, it might hit 'em a couple times and get them to let go. not to mention, seats are expensive and if you launch it out, you'd have to go and retreive it and repair it.
