ABSTRACT:
A gun support apparatus having two cooperatively engageable, elongate body sections adapted to receive and support a rifle or shotgun with the barrel in an upright position, in combination with at least one mounting bracket that releasably engages at least one of the body sections and is also attachable to an underlying support surface such as the floor or bottom of a hunting blind, tree stand or other such structure. The body sections are of sufficient height to shield and protect the trigger of the gun when the gun is supported in the apparatus. The mounting bracket can include, as either an additional or alternative feature, a stake member that is insertable downwardly into the ground so that the subject gun support apparatus can be used in locations where there is no hard underlying surface to which the mounting bracket can be attached.
