 Topic: Rifle RackPosted: 20 Jan. 2018 at 2:14am |

My 2A came with this rack mounted to the back of the windshield frame. I assume it's a rifle rack. Is this a period aftermarket accessory, something available from the dealer or something homemade? I have no need to carry a rifle, is there any other use for it?
Thanks Steve

My 3B came with exactly the same accessory. I believe it is a PO add-on.
You could hang a lot of things off the hooks.

K-Mart type stores and most sporting goods stores had those on the shelf....probably still find them without much trouble.
Most mounted in the cab over the rear window in pickups. |

Yep. Aftermarket add on. Like them for reason. Keep hoping to find a set at the swap meet but haven't yet.

Thanks guys. I saw one photo of another jeep with a very similar set. I can see how handy it would be for a hunter.

Thanks guys. It sounds like they are nothing special. If i can get some touch up paint made up, I may remove them.

You should remove those immediately and send them to me so I can put them in my jeep!

As has been said, they are handy, I often use mine for fishing poles. My sister uses them for her camera tripods.
If you do not want them, trade them off on this site. |

I'll let you all know if I decide to remove it. If nothing else, it makes a great hat rack.
