ABSTRACT:
A rack for securely holding a shotgun in the front passenger compartment of a police car or other vehicle is disclosed in which the shotgun, when installed in the rack, is in a generally horizontal position with its barrel pointing forwardly and downwardly and with the stock of the gun overlying the front seat of the car, and in which the shotgun is positively locked in the rack which in turn is firmly secured to the floor of the police car. The rack includes a sturdy welded frame which has a selectively operable gun lock thereon for receiving and positively holding the middle portion of the shotgun (e.g., the receiver) and a muzzle plate in front of the end of the muzzle of the shotgun when the latter is installed in the rack. The muzzle plate has a plug secured thereto and is insertable into the muzzle of the shotgun so that when the gun lock is closed and locked, the gun lock prevents axial, sidewise, and vertical movement of the gun and the muzzle plug prevents sidewise and vertical movement of the muzzle of the gun relative to the rack. Upon opening the gun lock, the police officer may readily remove the gun from the gun rack for use.
