Rifle only backpack

Post by Zilla » 22 Mar 2014, 3:31 pm

I'm looking for a rifle backpack, something like the Ridgeline Gun Slinga pack, this one...

Image

Catch is I don't really want the "back pack" part. Really I just want a two shoulder strap rifle hardness instead of carrying around on a sling like normal.

Anyone suggest anything?

Cheers.

There are some soft cases made that way the game stalkers in Britain use them.

Sorry I did. Not mean to post 3 times try eagle industries. They have scoped rifle cases with back pack straps.

No worries. It's a little quirk of the forum and happens for people occasionally.

The Biathlon Sling is exactly what I was looking for, thanks Chronos, Norton.

I'll check out eagle industries too, thanks wrenchman.

Thanks Mecca.

Will have a proper look later but at a glance they look like they've got some good gear.

I've been wanting one of those shoulderpack style ones they do.
