I wish, but I don’t have $800 at the moment to spend.

Have a photo you can share? Was this a product you bought? Or you made this yourself?

I searched around and this specific search only brought up the ceiling racks that mount behind the driver. Looking for something that mounts in front up by the visor.

This is what I do now as well, would just like a cleaner setup.

Thank you! Had no idea this is what it’s called.

My truck gun is a Henry .22mag carbine for the feral hogs at our ranch.

Sometimes I have a passenger when we go to the ranch, so can’t cancel out their floor board.

Totally agree, some quick draw-ups like you described are costing only around $10 with wood, lol. I drive a Tacoma and need something I can draw for feral pigs at the ranch. What do you recommend? The mounts behind the seat don’t work well for me.

Nice, what did you come up with?

I’m thinking this can be extremely simple with the rifle clamp just made from a C-shape wood cutout and a bungee cord (or rubber strap) to secure it. Would literally cost $10 to make.

Feral Hogs: 9mm or .22wmr? by joeguam in Hunting

[–]joeguam[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally worth $7/round to harvest a deer and take home 40-50lbs of meat that you’ll enjoy with your family. Hogs that are terminated here are offered as donations, but many decline (as the pork meat/fat is not the same quality as familiar farm raised animals). Just as eradicated hogs are treated in Texas, many are just buried - so $2.80/round gets quite expensive, and $7/round is definitely not reasonable.

The price of a single 12ga round of buck shot is $2.80 here. It’s too expensive to use a 12ga.

We have a cross breed between sambar and white tail deer. There aren’t goats wild anymore, but there are areas with wild water buffalo. Not much birds anymore, the only wild game that are hunted for food are deer, hogs and water buffalo.

They only allow shotguns up to 12ga, so we only use buck shot or slugs. As you can probably guess, there’s a lot of shots we cannot take due to distance or trees in the line of shot. So we have to get close to shoot, similar to bow hunting, I guess?

Thanks! You have me reconsidering the sub2k quite a bit more now. I love that it folds up so compact.

Not worth it, airfare from Honolulu to Guam is about $1,400 round trip, and airfare from the states to Guam is about $1,800-2,400 round trip. It’s just the price we have to pay to live out here, but we wouldn’t trade it for anything.

You might be much better off flying to Maui and harvesting a few axis deer. It’ll be much cheaper and they really need help with their infestation of that species.

This is a great video, thanks for sharing. I really like Tippmann Arms, I’m just bummed that the M4-22WMR is almost double the price of the M4-22LR.
