To help you find the best Jeep gun safe, we've put together a list of some of the best options available. We'll take a look at both gun safes for under the seat as well as for the center console, with many of these being specifically designed for Jeep vehicles.

Each of these gun safes will provide you with the security you need when having to lock up your everyday carry when you need to enter a business or location where firearms aren't allowed. Plus, as many of these are custom designed for Jeep vehicles, you can rest assured that installation will be seamless. Our Top Pick was the Bestop Highrock Jeep Gun Safe. We'll explain why below.

Jeep Under Seat Gun Safe

Here are a couple of gun safes that are specifically designed to fit under the seat of your Jeep Wrangler. The first gun safe is designed for the Wrangler JK, the second is for the Wrangler TJ.

Winner - Bestop Highrock 4x4 Lock Box 42640-01

This Jeep under seat gun safe is designed specifically to fit under the driver's seat of the Wrangler JK. It features a pick-resistant cylinder lock and is made of heavy duty 16 gauge steel. One of the best things about the Bestop Jeep JK gun safe, though, is that it requires no additional hardware to install.

Instead, it uses the factory seat riser bolts to keep it firmly in place and unable to be easily removed by would-be thieves. It comes in a powder black finish, making it blend in well with the vehicle interior. This gun safe comes with two keys.

  • Exterior Measurements: 17 inches long by 7.5 inches wide by 3.75 inches high
  • Interior Measurements: 16 inches by 5.75 inches by 2.78 inches high

This Jeep JK gun safe will fit the Wrangler JK 2-door years 07-10 with no modification and the Wrangler JK Unlimited years 11 and up with some installment modification. It will not fit the Wrangler JK 2-door years 11 and up.

Bestop High Rock 4x4 Under Seat Lock Box 42641-01

The Bestop 42641-01 Jeep gun safe is designed for the Wrangler TJ. It easily fits under the driver's seat, as long as the seat is not a tilt and fold style (in which case it will not fit.)

This TJ gun safe is constructed of heavy duty 16 gauge carbon steel and comes in powder black finish. It installs using the seat riser bolts, so there is no additional hardware needed for installation.

A great feature of this safe is that even with the driver seat set all the way back, the gun safe is still difficult to see even with the driver’s door open. There are plastic tabs that keep the internal drawer from sliding all of the way out. However, these tabs can be moved (when the safe is opened) to allow for full removal of the drawer.

This Jeep TJ gun safe will fit the Wrangler TJ years 97-06. It will not fit driver’s seats with the fold-forward feature.

  • External Measurements: 13 inches long by 10 inches wide by 3.75 inches high
  • Internal Measurements: 12 inches long by 8 inches wide by 2.75 inches high
