My New Gun Rack

Post by Danwin22 » Sun May 22, 2016 12:11 pm

I wanted to take some pictures of my rifles outside so I was going to make a rack of some type to display the guns.
Then I saw a Horse Jump I made for my grand-daughter a couple of years ago that had some "Patina" and decided to go with that.

My Lever .22 rifles, Winchester 9422, Uberti Silverboy and Henry Golden Boy

Hammer rifles adding Rossi 62 copy of Winchester

This shot shows all four types of repeating .22 rifles, Lever, Pump, Auto and Bolt.
The auto is a Winchester 490 and the bolt is a CZ452 American with a Nikon scope.

The rifle jump is one of the most intimidating on the show circuit.

:) thanks for sharing. Great rifles!

That's OK, that 17.2 hand Hanoverian can easily handle these low jumps.

RanchRoper We Cheat! They use a small stepladder at the shows but I built the staircase just in front of the horse's right front hoof in this picture.

Well don't tell my saddle pals, but I try to mount from the upside of the hill, or look for a rock to stand on....hey it's tough to get the leg up with long johns, canvas trousers and heavy chaps on! It's nothing to do with getting old.

She looks like she's having a ball. Good for her! I can't see her face in that photo but I'm betting smile from ear to ear would sum it up.
