Talk about "spaces," I just downsized from a '07 Toyota Sienna. My 38 special fit perfectly in the door-armrest. The compartment under the console lid was also a perfect spot. Anything larger could go in the console itself. That car was a 'gem' for making good use of space. Of course, it was built in the USA, not Japan. Anyway, I'm adapting to the limitations of the Prius and enjoying it a lot!
