pete evans Posted November 26, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 do you recon there could be a market? possibly with telescoping bits so you could adjust height angle etc. ive never seen rests like this in the shooting press pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henry d Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 Superb pete,youve got a good looking bit o`kit there.Does it have anything to hold a lamp? I did once see a similar thing but as I`m old and senile I can`t remember where or how long ago but I do know I aint seen it since.Best of luck with it.(need anyone to field trial it???) :thumbs: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apbuild Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 I have rifle rests on both sides of my Isuzu for the weekly bunny outings at the golf course. They're called wing mirrors.LOL :thumbs: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quercus Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 Looks like a nice piece of kit Pete, I'm sure you would be able to sell them. I've seen a couple of similar homemade rests but nothing as tidy as yours. Apparently the Aussies use them a fair bit. I have one of THESE, and no I didn't pay anywhere near that much for it :thumbs: Q Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vermin Dropper Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 (Not sure how) But get a patent on it! No chance of a patent now, ( He's shown it to the world for free) :thumbs: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete evans Posted December 14, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 henry d as requested, somewhere to hold lamp. this adjustment will take any scope mounted lamp and has a fairly wide ark both side to side and up and down it crucially stays put when you let go of it.
