Like the title say i am look for ideas to store a ak47 pistol in my z. And for the life of me i can't come up with a viable solution. I can keep it in a case in the hatch but in the event of an accident it could fly and hit me or my passenger.

Behind the cross bar. In the trunk area. Lift up the carpet. You will see a piece of foam. You can remove it. With it removed. You will have extra storage.

how big is that foam? i cant remember and my Z is still locked up lol

oooooooo what if you took a dremel to it or whatever those heated wires we used in tech class in high school.

you could cut the exact shape out and have a nice snug hidden spot for it.

ooooooo i need to go home andmake some plans now

That foam piece goes from one side to the other 3 to 3.5 ft long, it's about 5"~6" wide, about 8" deep. 2 ways to remove it. Take all the plastic panels out of the rear. Or use a hack saw blade and cut it on the corners for clearance. Once you remove it. You have to make a cover for that area to keep the carpet from dropping in.
