Firearm mount for vehicle trunk or cargo area

A firearm mount for a trunk or cargo space of a vehicle, comprising:

• a slideable tray defining a storage area, the tray having first and second opposing sides and at least one outer side extending between the first and second sides, the outer side being configured for positioning adjacent an opening of the trunk or cargo space;
• first and second drawer slide assemblies coupled to the first and second sides of the tray and configured for attachment within the trunk or cargo space to support the tray for access, wherein the tray is slideably movable on the first and second drawer slide assemblies between a distal access position and a proximal storage position;
• at least one firearm mounting member coupled to the outer side of the tray, the firearm mounting member being adjustably coupled to a track connected to the tray and extending parallel to the outer side, the firearm mounting member being shaped to receive a firearm in its upright orientation and lockable to secure the firearm in the firearm mount, wherein the tray and the firearm mounting member are sized and spaced relative to each other to permit the opening of the trunk or cargo space to be closed when the tray is retracted into the proximal storage position and to maintain a gripping space between the tray and a firearm received in the firearm mount to allow a user to access the firearm when the tray is in the access position.
