Be prepaired

Not really where I was going with this but it sounded fun in a paranoid type of way. I'm 6-4 and I don't even know they are up there. I was very surprised. Just installed the new rack.

Nothing wrong with packin' some firepower, but I really am NOT diggin' that you drilled through the roof of a 67-72 Chevrolet pickup.

They are very dear to my heart and increasingly collectable. The last one I had went down the road for three times what I paid for it and over a million on the clock. Love 'em.

Fear not, Look at my cig. No offense but I would never own another GM product on a drunken bet and I quit drinking years ago.

Already had that conversation with my son, He figured it would go something like this. "Sir may I see your...........................Holy crap, expecting trouble?"
Fortunately I am legal here in Va as long as they arn't loaded. That is what the 45acp under the seat is for. I installed the rack so it is easier to tote the long guns when I go shooting.

Did you make those yourself or did you buy them?

If you bought them can you post a link?

I would like to mount my 870 inside my closet like that.

Thanks,

Yup, and although it made the seats very friendly when dropping the right foot, I detest the way GM assembles stuff.
As for the guns those are my knock around shotguns.
The one is a Remington 870 police mag, with the flip stock, 7 round mag, slug barrel and adjustable rear sight.
The long one is a Mosberg bolt action 12 ga. with muzzle break and select choke. I like the removable mag. East to quick load.

how much weight did that little hobby add to the top of the vehicle?
how does it affect the high-G-corner handling? Number of seconds/lap lost
?

Not a bad idea.

Doesn't work too well with a targa roof though.
