Gun racks...?

This may be a silly question, but have gun racks in vehicles been outlawed nationwide? Growing up, you couldn't swing a dead cat without hitting a truck with a gun rack in it, and they all seem to have disappeared these days...?
I've been in 49 States in the past 10 years, and can't recall seeing one...

I don't know the answer, but my truck had a set of gun racks (still does) when I bought it. Haven't had any issues but then again I don't keep any guns in the racks. In Virginia it's ok to have a firearm in the vehicle as long as it is not concealed.

Times have changed.... A person with a nice rifle is not going to display it for everyone to see. some crackhead would have it at the pawn shop before you knew it was gone.

Almost everyone wants one, but today that's just asking for trouble from druggies.

There are still a few riding around Louisiana. You can carry a gun here as long as it's not concealed.
