Hi all.

 

 

Tell me about and show me your mods to your shooting wagons from small to large....

 

Especially anything to assist you with getting up higher. Would really like to do some bits....

 

 

Many thanks

Any shooting truck has got to have at least one sensible hatch. Any vehicle can have one fitted. Go to a yacht manufacturer or chandlers yard and they will do the job for you and it WILL be water tight too.

Power points for lamps and other accessories. Large capacity battery or two standards are a must. Some sort of circular seat so that you are at the right height to shoot and a roof-rack modified to make a shooting rest around 360 degrees and stowage for the gun.

Ability to put a low screen around you when sitting out so that movement of your hands and arms is not visible for miles on a moonlight night.

IR for spotting. Intercom between driver and shooter and anyone else involved. Wireless preferred to cables.

Electronic caller of some sort.

Radio or similar for light entertainment on long sit-outs or a Kindle.

Stowage for flask and snacks.

Bed for the dog.


Looking at making something for a tow bar to stand on.

 

Everyone tries this when they start lamping - Don't because it doesn't work.

1986 ex Royal Marine Landrover 90. 2.5 diesel without a blower.

As above with red capped driving lights for stealth and still got the military inhibitor that cancels ALL lights, including brakes, for extra dark work.

No, you can't buy her.
