Home Forums Gear Horses and ATV's Rifle scabbard questions

I've never had trouble splitting stuff apart on trees. If the rifle is mounted high enuff, you can always reach down and push it against the horse when ya see the tree coming. Another upside is, the rifle is always where you can see it. When you lose your first rifle outta the low, near-side backwards scabbard that a limb pops open and the rifle falls out in the snow in rough stuff where it's not immediately noticed, you'll damn sure re-thunk yer options......







There is also some extra security/protection from the top scabbard strap breaking and flinging yer gun into la-la land, if ya rig it thru the lariat....


A bazillion miles scope-down has also proven to NOT be a prollem....


And, it's a lot easier to lash meat to a stock saddle when the scabbard don't cover the dee/rigging rings.....


A good scabbard is also a great way to transport yer rifle up to the trailhead.
