Adjust Rack to Fit Gun
1. Gun Racks are shipped with the components already attached. However, it may be necessary to move
these components to fit a specific make/model of gun. All gun rack components are necessary to properly
secure the gun. Do not remove components.
2. If your gun rack uses a Large Lock head. It can be adjusted to fit different guns. Simply raise or lower the
adjustment plate inside the lock by loosening or tightening the screw.
3. To reposition the Gun Lock, open the lock and use a 3/16” Allen-Head wrench to loosen the screws (do not
fully remove the screws). Slide the Gun Lock along the Channel to a position where it will securely hold the
gun. The proper position of the Gun Lock will keep the gun from being lifted out of the Butt Pocket. The
Trigger Guard and Butt Pocket can also be adjusted by loosening the fasteners. The proper position of the
Trigger Guard will protect the trigger and will keep ammunition from being chambered.
4. Once all adjustments are made, verify that the gun fits securely by locking it in the Gun Rack.

Hardware Kit

Mount to Partition
1. Before placing the Gun Rack into vehicle, assemble the brackets onto the Channel of the Gun Rack as shown
in Bracket Assembly Diagram. (See Bracket Assemblies diagram below.)
2. Two U-Brackets will be used to secure the Gun Rack to the Partition. When positioning the U-Brackets
along the Channel, try to create the largest possible spacing between the two Brackets.
3. Place the U-Bracket over the Channel. Using two washers, two 5/8” bolts and one nut plate, attach the U-
Bracket to the gun rack and tighten completely. Place the spacer inside the U-Bracket and attach the two
L-Brackets with legs facing outward using a washer, 2-1/2” bolt and nut. Do not fully tighten. Repeat for
the other mounting Bracket Assembly.
Electrical
• Attach and insulate the wires following the enclosed wiring diagram. Ensure that the wires are not pinched
as they are routed towards the most convenient power and grounding source.
