TUFFY SECURITY PRODUCTS OFFERS LOCKABLE FIREARMS STORAGE FOR VEHICLES

Cortez, CO – (October 5, 2020) — According to an updated survey by the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF), the trade associate for the firearm industry, first-time gun buyers grew to nearly 5 million in the first 7 months of 2020. That’s 40 percent of all firearms sales going to first-time buyers. Tuffy Security Products acknowledges this, and the fact that many people are now traveling with their new firearms.

According to the NSSF New Gun Owners Survey, 58 percent are black Americans and 40 percent are women.

“These first-time buyers represent a group of people who, until now, were agnostic regarding firearm ownership,” said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President of General Counsel. “That’s rapidly changing, and these Americans are taking hold of their right to keep and bear arms to protect themselves and their loved ones.”

New firearm owners should educate themselves on both firearm carry and transportation laws in their own city and state, as well as cities and states they plan on traveling through. The United States Concealed Carry Association (USCCA) website has an informative, concealed carry reciprocity and gun laws by state map for easy reference.

“We understand the importance of securely and legally transporting firearms in vehicles because we have been a leading provider of secure storage products for more than 30 years,” said Chip Olson, Marketing Manager, Tuffy Security Products. “We want to educate first time gun owners about the various products we offer for to securely store their firearm as well as other valuables.”

As for securely storing firearms in vehicles during travel, Tuffy Security Products offers many choices from built-in console safes and under seat lockboxes to enclosures, drawers and portable safes:

Underseat Lockboxes are large enough to store both shotguns and rifles, while remaining hidden under the seat. They are designed specifically to fit under the rear seat of most pickup truck models using factory hardware with no drilling required for installation.
Console Safes fit inside the original equipment center console of most pickups and SUVs to transform this area into heavy duty lockable storage.
Portable Safes, available in small, medium and large, are engineered for securing and transporting handguns. Tuffy’s unique system does not require a separate padlock and can be released in seconds to transfer the lockbox between vehicles or locations.

All Tuffy Security Products are made of welded steel and have a durable textured powder coat finish.  They company’s exclusive Pry-Guard locking system and 10-tumbler double bitted patented pick resistant locks prevent valuables from opportunistic thieves.  The option of flexible keyless lock-entry for multiple users is also available.  Tuffy Security Products can be found online on the company’s website, or, there is also a dealer locator to find a retailer near you.

TUFFY FLIP-UP FRONT LICENSE PLATE HOLDER COMBINES FUNCTIONALITY WITH CONVENIENCE AND STYLE WHILE MEETING DRIVING LAWS

CORTEZ, Colo. – From aesthetics to engine performance, there are a lot of reasons why vehicle owners prefer not to equip their vehicles with a front license plate.

Outlasting plastic models with a flimsy clip-on design, the Tuffy Flip-up License Plate Holder is a functional accessory that offers outstanding value and superior engineering for years of reliable use. Its strong construction, theft-deterrent design and good looks complement Jeep, pickup truck and SUV styling.

TUFFY SECURITY PRODUCTS’ NEW JEEP® GLADIATOR PICKUP BED  PRODUCT EARNS TWO SEMA SHOW AWARDS

CORTEZ, Colo. – Tuffy Security Products has returned from the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) trade show in Las Vegas with two prestigious awards for its new Jeep® Gladiator pickup bed storage organizer system.

It was named runner-up for the Best New Van/Pickup/SUV Product presented by SEMA; and SEMA’s Truck & Off-Road Association (TORA) bestowed its Light Truck Product Award on the system, which helps keep gear organized and out of sight.

“It’s a great honor to be recognized for this innovative, new product,” said Chip Olson, Tuffy Security Products Marketing Manager. “Our organization is continually looking at ways to improve the ownership experience of new vehicles, with thoughtfully integrated products that deliver form and function with OE levels of fit and finish – and that’s exactly what our new Jeep Gladiator bed storage organizer system delivers.”

The system features long, strong steel compartments installed along both sides of the pickup bed, comprised of three separate lids with dividers, allowing outdoor adventure gear and other items to be stowed and organized out of the elements. These Tuffy lockboxes are manufactured with 16-gauge, 1/8-inch-thick welded steel and the bin lids are covered with a sturdy, lightweight composite material for weather resistance. The lids also include pushbutton locks that allow latching without having to lock them with a key. Additionally, with the Gladiator’s lower bed height, the lockboxes can easily be accessed from the exterior of the bed, while allowing the use of factory bed lights, as well as the optional 110-volt power point. Multiple BullRing® tie downs are affixed to the side of the lockboxes, so the included nylon net can be used to secure larger gear in the pickup bed.

An optional, folding Bestop soft tonneau cover fits securely between the Tuffy lockboxes to protect and secure items in the bed. When closed, the storage organizer system has a flat, finished tonneau appearance. No drilling is required and the combination compartment/tonneau is easy to install.

“We received very positive feedback on the product from both buyers as well as members of the media at the show,” stated Olson. “Our engineering team worked diligently for months to create just the right combination of useful storage space to help Jeep Gladiator owners keep the inside of the cab clean, while being able to organize their gear in the pickup’s bed.”
