Just thought I’d share

[JPickett]

In case anyone’s had the same issue. Just bought a sxs and have been scratching my head on how I want to carry my rifle on this thing.

Really don’t like any of the options I’ve been looking at in line. Over head racks make me nervous, don’t like those vertical mounts to the grab bar idea then after those there’s just not a ton of options.

I do really like my koplin hard case with the bracket I had in my quad. Nice secure fit for my rifles and protected from weather. So i jumped on Amazon and found some roll bar clamps for mounting light bars. They looked to have about the perfect off set for what I wanted. Put it all together today it’s just right. Usually by myself hunting so the room it takes up behind my seat is no big deal. And can pop it right off when riding with the family

Nice secure mount , still absorbs some shock and access right out the drivers door. Think it turned out pretty good

Well done Pickett, im sure that you thought it out well as anything attached takes a real beating.

Looks good, I have debated this since I bought my SxS a few years ago. I found its when I have the seats occupied is when I have an issue. I’ll either let someone else drive and I’ll sit in the front holding my rifle between my legs or if I drive the passenger will hold it for me. Otherwise when at least one back seat is open I just set my rifle in a soft case and it seems to be ok even through the rough driving areas.

For sure. That’s actually what I really like about the koplin case and quick connection bracket. It has some grommets in the bolts and the case is suspended. That and the clamps I put on have a rubber liner. Has some shock absorption that way. Never had an issue on my quad and I’m not easy on stuff

Looks great! Can you send a link or a picture of the bracket you have for the gun boot?

Well that doesn't make me feel good about that set up.

 

[JPickett]

ive been running this same bracket and gun boot for years on my quad. scopes on every time, and it gets bouncy on the quad. id say make sure you have a better scope that the internals don't get knocked out.

as for the set up its just the koplin gun boot and quick connect. ill look and see if i can find the light bar brackets i bought on amazon but i just looked for one peace aluminum constriction ones with double screws to tighten down. its pretty solid

So JP?

Does The Gun Boot Double As A Grab Bar For The Guy Riding In The Back?

I'd Keep A Close Eye On Any KOLPIN PLASTIC BRACKET!

For a week it was. Had to build a shed to get the room for both. Been meaning to anyway so it worked out

I'll Tell You This:

If Somebody Started Building Quality Gun Carriers/Brackets/Heavy Duty Scabbards That Were Built To FIT SPECIFIC Machines They'd Have Themselves A Nice Business!

 

[JPickett]

I know it. I was slept this one when I bought it. But I’ve had it in a quad for about 5 years and it’s worked great. Maybe I just got a good one. Way I have it mounted actually seems more secure then my quad mount so we’ll see how it goes

 

[JPickett]

These look like they may be good too but pretty bulky hanging off the back. I like the idea of having my gun inside the machine
