ABSTRACT:
The specification describes a modular gun-rack comprising a stock securing unit 1 and a barrel support unit 26. The stock securing unit comprises one or more modular units 2 and the barrel support unit 26 comprises one or more tubular elements 27. Each modular unit comprises a frame having two vertically oriented tubes 5 and 8 and a cross-bar 11. The frame of the upper most modular unit 4 is completed by a cross member 16. The top of each tube defines a sleeve that is capable of receiving a spigot 14, 15 at the bottom of each tube. The lowermost inner tube 5 is secured to a wall by means of a screw. Access to the screw-hole and head of the screw can be gained through hole 34 in the outer face of tube 5 prior to insertion of cross-bar 11 into hole 34. In use tube 5 is secured to a wall by means of a screw, access to which is gained through hole 34. Cross-bar 11 is inserted through the trigger guard of a gun and inserted into hole 34. Cross-member 16 having a spigot 18 at one end and a flange 18 at the other is inserted into the sleeves defined by the tops of tubes 5 and 8 such that flange 18 protrudes from slot 20. Alternatively, further units 3 and 4 can be assembled above unit 2 and the cross-member 16 inserted into the sleeves defined by the tops of tubes 7 and 10. The other end of cross-bar 11 is then inserted into a corresponding hole in the internal face of tube 8 and locked in position by lock 25.
