Tacticon Gun Magnet | Magnetic Car Holster | Handgun & Pistols Mounts | Steering Wheel Holder for Car | Vehicle Guns & Pistol Mount Holster | Fast Installation

Great little product and it does just what it says. The magnet is nice and strong and the whole item is small and does fit in lots of places. BUT... it may be either unwise or illegal to use this for a loaded weapon in your car. In WA state, for instance, if you have a concealed carry license and you are driving, the loaded weapon is required by law to be on your person at all times. Plus, consider the sequence of events if you are stopped by police. If a cop walks up to either side of your car, looks in and sees a weapon before any conversation has happened, you run the risk of them shouting "GUN" and taking defensive action (which a LE friend of mine described as "pulling you out the driver's window by your hair"). If the weapon is properly concealed and on your person, you get the chance to say "Officer, I have a concealed carry permit and I am armed. How would you like to proceed?" which seems like a much better way to start off the interaction, to me. (Don't forget to keep both of those hands on the steering wheel, either.) YMMV.

The rubber coating wore off after 2 uses and scratched my gun. I have different magnet mounts employed in my home and I am not impressed with this magnet. Mounted this in the truck. It is too small to stop my stock XD40 from sliding, which is what caused the coating to come off. The magnet is not powerful enough to hold a loaded gun sideways. One bump of the road and my gun was on the floor... Returned, wish it was stronger and the coating was not so thin.

Thus far the product has been above satisfactory. The coating on the magnet has provided protection against unwanted scratching on the slide. While I am satisfied with the product I am extremely dissatisfied with the included hardware. I am skilled in laboring with my hands and I know how to avoid stripping a screw head. I drilled pilot holes prior to attempting to attach the magnet to the PLASTIC vehicle dash. The holes were properly aligned with the magnet holes and the screws were able to be started by hand. However, I managed to strip every screw head of the provided hardware. This was not due to lack of experience, sloppy work or impatience. It is due to the sub par hardware that accompanied this product. The screw heads essentially were dissolved by the screwdriver during the attempted installation. Ultimately, I had to drive to the hardware store and pay $0.20 for the proper hardware. It works great with the appropriate hardware. This simple and smart idea was complicated and discouraging when paired with cheap unreliable hardware. On a positive note, the dealer rushed my delivery to me free of charge and sent a hand written letter. I am enjoying this product and will give the product a 5 star rating. I can only hope they will stop cutting corners and partner with hardware that will compliment this pruduct rather than complicate the product.

The magnet is very strong, to the point that it will even hold the weight of my Sig P365 when placed so the magnet is only touching/going through its kydex holster. When the magnet is attached directly to the pistol, it could mount anywhere and the gun will not shake off under any normal (even off-road) circumstances. Rock solid. It is also small, making it easy to place anywhere you want; under dash, console, top mount, side, whatever you want.One thing to note is that the adhesive tape does not seem intended for mounting. It is handy to hold the magnet in place while you screw it in, but if you are hoping to avoid screw holes and use the tape alone, you will likely be disappointed. It's not going to hold up.One complaint - the reason I did not give 5 stars - is that, from the factory, my screw holes were too small for the screws provided. I just drilled the holes out a bit, but you can imagine the annoyance of then trying to get the drilled metal shavings off of the magnet.

The magnets are rather strong. They get the job done. So overall I'm happy. However, there were some problems that I think customers will need to know. The 3M tape on the back is garbage. It doesn't support an unloaded mag. The screws included have VERY small heads so using a standard size screwdriver isn't happening, and there isn't really any room to use different screws. However gorilla glue works pretty well. The other big thing is, the plastic contact points on these will mark your guns. It's a little circle on top, and it rubs off if you lick your finger and rub it with your shirt, but it worries me about wearing through the finish on my guns. So I took a small piece of fabric from a sunglasses pouch and super glued it over and no more marking. So just beware of those few things. It's a great magnet and holds my lifed Glock 19 and ruger p95, just some small things that need addressing. Also, these suckers are about as big as a quarter.

I was pleasantly surprised with this little item. It is more than strong enough for what I needed it for. Also the seller included a hand written letter to me thanking me for buying his product. He also included an extra magnet for free, and upgraded my shipping to 2-3 day. I will definitely recommend this seller to another, and will also be buying from him again.The only negative I guess if you call it one is that I expected the magnet to be a bit bigger than it was. I expected something about a half dollar size or bigger, in person it's about as big as a nickel. Credit where credits due, it does hold my firearm so I cannot complain to much. Thanks again Jacob!

It's a darn strong maginet that held my XDM well. The reason I give it two stars is because the coating on the maginet started coming off on the edges and had scratched the slide pretty good. The second reason I give it two stars is that the adhesive didn't hold up to well without the screws to hold it in place. The maginet worked so well it stayed on the slide when I went to pull it off of the maginet.
