My gun rack set up on Outlander

THought this might be of some interest. I didn’t like the Cam Am offerings for gun racks so I came up with my own set up using the Linq locks and a set of racks.

My racks have a 3/8 stud on them so I headed off to Lowes to find a 3/8 shackle or long nut. Used a 1" copper plated water pipe hanger (couldn’t find any other color so copper it is) to squash the shackle against the Linq block. As you see in the pic one half of the hanger is tapped for a bolt, I figured if the shackle slides up and down I would but a bolt in the hole for a set screw and just run a self tapper in the other half for a set screw but the shackle is so tight I don’t feel it’s needed.

Racks do shake just a tad side to side with nothing in them but once a rifle is set in them they ride just fine.
