??? Name of shooting rest

Post by Die Judicii » 29 Jan 2019, 9:44 pm

Can some-one give me the brand name of the vehicle door shooting rest/bar that used to be common place ?

I've tried looking at current products, but they are nothing like what I'm after, and I can't remember their name. :thumbsdown:

Cheers :drinks:

I recall it having a different name, but this is the one I found:

Thanks Rod,
Thats the sort of design that I'm looking for, and as you said, I recall a differing sort of name too.

Interesting observation and I jump to the conclusion that the guy doing the advert is no experienced shooter.
In his brief demo, he has the barrel resting on it, and not the fore-end of the stock.

Ok i just had a quick look & i can see the box but too hard to pull out right now...

Its called "big iron shooting rest".but cant see the brand cos the box is behind too much gear to move.

I just shot this over mine about 24 hrs ago...
