Side By Side / Gun boot mounts & box storage to the bed.
« on: October 15, 2019, 03:42:20 PM »
Hi guys - I'll have the answer in a few days but wanted to check back in and see if anyone has done this in the interim since the last thread.
Gun boot mounts & box storage to the bed.
I hunt & trap all over and it ranges from dry and dust everywhere to one mega huge bog. Most of the overhead and floor based gun racks will not suffice. I've tried the large bag over the back but it winds up lasting about 2 storms worth. I'm presently using a floating shotgun case and laying it on the seat with the muzzle into the storage compartment under the shifter. You should see the bolts on some of my guns from a few trips without it - crazy.
Just checking in if anyone's used the kolpin gun boot or strong hold system. Pictures and successes/failures appreciated. Looks like I'll be going the kolpin stronghold route and fixing it to the roll bars. Little concerned about where I'm gonna put the axe and how those angled bars will do but give it a shot. Looking at the added box for the bed mount but need to verify on the machine first and she's about 300 miles away at present. Not sure how that double wall tilting bed would do with bolts thru the sides. If anyone's attached something to it, would appreciate insight.
For as much storage as the machine has - still looking for more! Here's a bed pic from Saturday night. 1,429 miles on her.
