    I wanted something to secure my (and my partner's) gun and shooting sticks. Looking online, I couldn't find something that would allow quick access, and everything is ridiculously expensive. I had some excess steel, and I found some "clamps" on Amazon. So, for less than $20, I made my own.

    It is secured to a cross brace that I installed. I can install and remove it quickly.

    A little paint, and it's done.

    I think you're misunderstanding the concept. This is for when we are hunting. When we aren't hunting, the guns are in our safes at home.

    I’d venture to say there’s a pretty good market for that. Just have to make sure you include “tactical” in the name.

    Looks great!

    Cool design. I’ve been thinking about making something like that from 80/20 T-slot channel for my minivan. Nothing like a tactical minivan!

    A great Indiana company based in Columbia City. I’ve made a lot of stuff using their extrusions and hardware, mainly because I never learned to weld beyond some introductory stuff in college.

    I just finished doing a bunch of metal fabrication in an Anderson Plastic Injection plant the last two months, And that stuff and boxes of fittings were everywhere.

    I’ve been looking to do the same in my truck for a couple years but have never got around to it. I was thinking just some clamps mounted on the bottom of the seat so it could be folded down easily.

    Looks good man I like it!
