Interested in what dimensions i might have to work with or any suggestions on installing a rear window gun rack.?Has anyone seen a same/similar car with this i live in Wisconsin how about legality? would it even fit?any ideas are greatly apreciated.
Man don't mess up your Maverick doing that! Just lay the guns on a blanket in the back seat! If you have really rough roads you can wrap each gun a turn or two in the blanket,then wrap the next one and so on.
Long guns - 18 to purchase, but you can possess one unsupervised by a parent at 12 years old after you pass a hunters safety class.
You need an old pick-up truck. Its against the law* to put a gun rack in the back window of a maverick. *Laws that govern tasteful decor
If you mount it on the back window of a maverick, you really cannot get to it without crawling out of the front seat and into the back. Unlike a truck, where it is right behind you. I always wanted to put a mount for my handguns either on the headliner (out of direct sight, so still "concealed") or under the steering wheel somewhere, where it is concealed but still easily accessible by someone who knows where it is located. Under the seat is OK, but it moves around after hours of driving. I have to keep reaching down and putting it back where I can easily find it.
Forgive me, but this has to be one of the dumbest things anyone has ever asked...it's not a pickup truck!!
I was wondering about this the other day... When I was growing up, and clean into the 1990s, long guns in the back window was a 'normal' thing (mostly in pickups, but whatever)... Some time in the 1990s this disappeared and you didn't see it anymore... When was this? What happened? If I had to guess, it must have been a Clinton thing... About the time he signed the dread "assault weapons ban"... Agree? I think the main excuse for the gun control push was Waco. This was about the time that guns disappeared from view. I guess the plan worked though. Now we have people here wondering if it's "legal" to have a gun in your back window. I don't think the assault weapon ban had that provison. It is a matter of it not being politically correct. There is some judicial activism involved too though. It is illegal to "brandish" a weapon. Well that has always meant "to point, display agressively, or wave around". Through judicial precident, brandish now covers just having a firearm in view in public. If you walk down the street with a gun in your hand or in view, non-threatening, in most places that is legally "brandishing".
I learned my lesson about displaying guns in the back window after I had one stolen that way. And right out of my own driveway. Brick thru the glass and he grabs the gun and he's gone before you know it. I also don't display guns in the house for just the same reason. Gone are the days when people were more trustworthy with your belongings.
