Has anybody found a good way of carrying guns, pistol and rifle in your B2650 cab? Figured I would get a few ideas before I potentially screw something up. I usually carry a firearm for varmints and snakes, over and under 20/22 or/and 22 revolver. Also has anyone found a good tool box that fits behind the seat?

Pricey and I am trying to figure out why they are charging so much. I was trying to think about mounts, maybe a stand up bracket for the rifle and hang the holster from it also. Have to find an anchor point and secure fastening system that will be out of the way and able to withstand vibration.

Regarding magnets: I'd be worried about the gun being jarred loose from a magnet in a tractor, but for that price it's worth a try.

OH MY a firearm in a tractor, :eek:
Try an M4 style not a SBR mine you, but a colapsable stock and a couple Velcro strips super glued to the roof.. Not that anyone I know would carry on a tractor, but I heard of this guy one time, had an AK, set up with a bullpup stock and red dot, and had it bungied to the handle beside the seat,, shoots pretty,, just sayin what I heard mind you

Didn't think about the arm rests as mounting areas, I don't even use them so they have been up since I have had the tractor. I bet you could strap a holster to one with no trouble.

I use a drop leg tactical holster or my Keltec in a Galco pocket holster. Tractor gets too dusty and dirty and I smack and break enough stuff accidentally...

I just use a small magnetic motorcycle tank bag that sticks right to the metal fender. Gun is enclosed, out of sight, and protected from the elements.

That is what I was thinking, probably the best place, secure and easy to get to. Like I said I have never used my arm rests so forgot they were even there so may as well put them to use.

You can run a piece of 2" or 3" velcro under the magnet mount...
https://www.amazon.com/Tac-Mag-Gun-Magnet-25-Rating/dp/B00LR454YU/
$12 + the cost of the velcro.
That's cheaper than a purpose-built mount.
Pretty hard to rattle loose from that magnet, if that's potentially a problem use 2x magnets...
I was looking at those and they are a good way to go. Metal plate under the seat has enough room to put one. May get a couple the next time I order from Amazon because they would be good in a number of places and not just the tractor.
