The telescoping arms that fit into the sides are what attracted me - so no drilling. It is a universal mount so it should work well with any number of rifles I may want to put in it. Also, it is one of the few rifle racks for civilian use. I have an access cab and plan to put it as far back on the roof mount as possible. I expect it to be here the 22nd (of May). I did a lot of looking around - suction cups, rear window mounts, floor mount and even talked to someone about a custom build but this looks like it will work --- I hope!! Not a lot of threads (anywhere) about rifle racks in our trucks!!

 

I am in the same boat as you. I seen an episode of Wild Justice. The warden had seething that looked like a cargo net that was bad ass. The ones that Velcro behind the seats is ok bit I don't like the scope being knocked around so I lay it on the seat or on the front in case something crosses on front of me then it's quick access.

 

Tacoma roof is NOT "double skinned". I know because I cut a 3/4" hole in it to mount my HAM radio antenna.

 

im mounting mine in my cap & love all the warden shows

 

santa cruz gun racks are the best. you can get them to be locked/unlocked with a key, handcuff key and electronically by switch or button. the SC-5 lock in my experience will accept the most styles of rifles.

 

Yeah, you win the prize for destructive testing.

 

that santa cruz sight is awsome

 

sometimes you can find them sold cheap on ebay after they were pulled out of retired police vehicles.

 

This is a old thread I know but did you ever get your rack in ?

 

nope not sure what came up that I didn't

I found this one. Haven't looked on tube yet to see how the install goes . But I did decide this is what I will be getting for my 06 DC

 

I have a 09' Double Cab and Big Sky Racks told me that I couldnt mount it behind the dome light or it would interfere with the side curtain airbags. Could just remove them I guess, but I didnt want it that bad. I tend to carry guns between the front seat and center arm rest/cubby. Holds them well and i can pull them quick; they are wearing a a spot on both my passenger and driver seat where they rub though.
