GERUSEA Gum Creek Vehicle Handgun Mount (Mount Only)

Great product and easy to install. Hasn’t moved since I put it in and works great for the holster I added.

The Gum Creek holster allowed me to drive long distances getting my 1911 out of my side. My side rig did not dig while driving, but pulling it out if needed would not be easy with seat belts and clothing material in the way. This solution fit perfectly on my GMC Seirra. It was tricky getting the webbing tight to reduce sagging. My holster (does not come with product) has a spare mag pouch and this rig holds everything securely. Now, depending on your clearance between your knee and dash will determine if knee will be hit occasionally when transitioning between gas and brake (and vice versa). It is close to hitting my knees (I'm 5'8"), but doesn't unless I do something abnormal (like jump off seat when a wasp lands in my lap... Knee knock was well worth it!). I really like the fact that I didn't have to drill any holes and I can move to another vehicle if needed.

I had looked at this for a while for my Glock 19 and 36 but waited. My wife and mother were looking for something small for me for Christmas and they both got me one for both vehicles I drive. They're very expertly made, and of high quality materials. At first glance in unboxing, it could be overwhelming to the average joe with all the straps but it has very easy to follow detailed instructions. I would rate it 5 stars but my only issue was the hooks that latch on. For my 1997 Silverado it would install but the angle of the hooks caused it to pop off. Simple fix, I just put the hook end in a bench vise and slowly tightened it to give it a sharper curve. It worked great and will not come off without completely loosening the strap. The other problem with the hooks is they can slide on the knee bolster trim they hook to. They're covered with a plastic material, but it should've been a thicker, yet softer, rubber. It will slide on the hard plastic no matter how tight you're able to get it. I'm not comfortable with this, if I have to snatch the pistol it may push it away and make it harder to get to in a bad situation. My remedy for this will be a small piece of bicycle inner tube tire cut to put between the hooks, and knee bolster. Overall, it's a very intuitive design and made very well. I'm not necessarily complaining about the hook design, as they have to make it universal to be a good seller, but I am simply stating don't get it and think it's defective and return it when a simple modification is all that's needed to make it perfect.

I use this with a UTG Deluxe Ambidextrous Belt Holster mounted in a 2007 FJ Cruiser. It works very well and I did not have to order the extension or adapter kit. The adjusting strap is a bit stiff at first, and you may have to fight it a bit when you first install. The Velcro on the mount worked perfectly with the Velcro on the holster, so installation was a breeze once I decided how I wanted it mounted. This keeps the gun well out of the way of my legs, but within easy reach. On the FJ, the gun is out of the sight-line of a casual observer, but not completely concealed. With the door closed and window up, it is hard to see from the drivers side, but it is visible from the passenger side. This system fit my requirements of being easy to access but not needing any mounting holes drilled.

So, I had been looking for a way to mount a holster in my vehicles for quite some time. I got this along with the UTG unversal holster. I think the easiest way to do this review is with pros and cons... I have one for all my vehicles. Pros: Not altering the vehicle in any way (That I like) Easier to retrieve from this position (Always practice though). Better than the door panel because I am a righty. A holster between the seat and the center console is not secure and under the seat is to far away and not visible. Install is simple. Cons: To expensive for the platform to have no holster The platform has wobble, but is secure. Could be the way my molding is underneath I would like to use a kydex holster, have not tried this yet. May update when I make the attempt. The UTG sucks for a compact M&P In conclusion, there are more secure ways to mount a holster in your car. If you are a righty, then a mount holster along the center console would be better if you do not mind screwing nails into the plastic. But if you do not want to drill holes then this is the way to go in my opinion. Seat mounts, I just found them to be to cumbersome being right handed. Plus the world can see it when you open your car door. I would tell a friend about this platform.

The concept, the pics, the description...all made me happy about this mount at first. But then I received it, and attempted to install it, to find out it was junk. It is not as adjustable as it needs to be, and likely fits very few cars vs. "most vehicles", since manufacturers use curved interior trim, with tight tolerances these days. You'd have to drive a vehicle from the 80's or 90's for this to qork at all. Sure, there is an "adapter" you can purchase separately, but that is just a strap that goes around your steering column. A strap?! So, if your looking for a secure, clean vehicle mount... This is not it. If your looking for a clunky, cheap, back yard engineered, overpriced wad of strap, get this mount.

Works as advertised. If you read the specs and the instructions located on Gum Creek's website, you will not be dissappointed. I have a 2007 Toyota Tundra and it fits great. No sag and I can get in and out without bumping my knees. I use it for a Glock 21, so it is sturdy. Price was a bit steep, but in the end worth it. I would certainly recommend it to a friend.

A picture is worth a thousand words. This mount used in conjunction with a nylon holster is perfect match. I used the UTG LE Grade Holster. It works very well together. It only takes a few minutes to install as all vehicles are a little different. You may require the optional strap to secure it properly. REMEMBER TO CONSULT YOUR STATE LAWS REGARDING FIREARMS PRIOR TO INSTALLATION AND USE.
