Gun Rack

[none]

I swear I need to put a gun rack on my tractor. I have been doing a bit of mowing and maintenance work on my range. In the evenings Seems like every time I go out there I run into something. This evening a blasted coyotee was making its way up front. And I really suspect that is what tore up one of our chickens.

seems like you could make something that would work outta PVC pipes, 2x4s, or similar cheap materials.  A double U shaped padded holding area, with something to hold it in place (a quick release strap would do the trick, you know the type? Plastic connector, like a backpack's belt etc?)  and some way to anchor it to the tractor wherever you have a spot?   Or, you could go vertical instead and put it into some sort of upright ... here again, think rifle racks at the range or 3-gun + some sort of strap?   Youll want to pad heavily to prevent vibration damage.    Might I recommend a decent pistol?  You could open a $15 foam lined case, put 3 or so moly magnets in it, sit it on anything metal in the tractor, and shut it... pistol be ready to go as fast as you can open the box and shoot it?   If the mags are like from an old hard drive etc they will be glued or welded or something to a metal plate that blocks it on one side... so it wouldn't stick to the gun thru the foam that way.  A long barrel 357 will kill most pests at 100 yards or so.

There are a number of atv/utv mounts for a rifle scabbard. I had a friend that used to see more deer while on his tractor than any other time. I have also shot coyotes and bobcats while on my 4 wheeler.

Found out a soft case fits over the back of the seat just fine and rides atop the rear fenders

You may have to remove the seat...

Yea but he would need an ammo carrier trailer behind to pull all the ammo. I bet after a few bursts the varmints in his neck of the woods would LEAVE!!!
