Can a handgun now be placed in a motor vehicle console?
This is another one for the courts. It depends on whether a container is a console and a console is a container. If so, then yes you can carry in a console. If a console is a “compartment” or something like that then no. Only time will tell. Generally speaking, it is a rule of statutory interpretation that you look to the context of the surrounding language to interpret things. /In Pari Materia./ Given the rest of the sentence is talking about boxes, bags, cases etc, things that are not a part of a car, it is probably safe to assume that the courts will say “container” means something other than a part of a car like a console.
