    How the heck would those work BRADS? They are upside down so surely the rifles would fall out.

    Thanks guys, some good info there. Between that and a wee play with the bike out hunting this weekend I have an idea.

    Well I had a play in the garage with some scrap aluminium, some sticky stuff (Durafix), couple of bolts, a pool noodle and the usual hand tools. All up cost about $20.









    Added a flat bar under the rest to attach some lights as the headlight on the bars will likely disappear behind a bin on the front. Still need to sort out a rifle rack.

    The first photo is my shooting partners set up it also has a koplin gun boot for extra storage I find the single rack works pretty well for me.

    The rest is the primary part and wanting it the full width of the bike. Just working out best height, position and making sure it doesn't interfere with controls/steering. This thing is just a lightweight prototype and will likely fall to bits before too long. Once I have a better idea after using this I'll make a better one out of steel; plenty of that stuff kicking around too.

    I like the set up on that Grizzly, more what I'm looking for but want to carry a rimfire and centrefire at the same time.
