JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Repeat of post earlier in this thread:

So it is clear to everyone: continuing to try to stear this thread into a gun debate thread WILL be considered TROLLING and is against the rules of this forum.

Keep it on track.

Based on the dimensions of this Bestop Storage Box (17" long x 7 1/2" wide x 3 3/4" high) a 21sf would definitely fit, and I'm sure the full size frame would as well. I just measured a Glock 17 and it would fit easily unholstered and it depends on the type of holster you have as to whether it would fit holstered. I don't know the dimensions of the 21 but there couldn't be that much variation between it and the 17.

I saw the dimensions but i assumed they were the dimensions of the box itself, not the insides of the box!

those are the outside dimensions, but this should help:

It says; Drawer: 16" x 5-3/4" x 2-7/8"

Thanks for the internal dimensions Happy...

Youri, even those dimensions a 17 will fit (with clip and rear sights) unholstered with over 1/2" to spare. If you already have the 21 measure it just to be sure.
