a GLOCK sticker may be a thief magnent. I could see it now, "This car has a hand gun in it that is registered to someone else..." Leave the car the way it is a lot of papers\chemicals in the back is not going to attract many people. Lock the doors and you should be fine. Yep, I think so. ...

Re: Car break-in deterrents - any suggestions
Turns out the latest break-in was due to the female owner leaving her car doors unlocked! So, just doing the basics saves you a lot of headache (locking the car up, sheesh!)
