Eagleye Hunting SmartRest Racken Rest 2 Short Vehicle Shooting Rest

The Racken Rest II is an Australian designed gun rest designed to hold a rifle on a vehicle window sill while driving the vehicle. It can mount to either sides of a vehicle door.

The rest is capable of holding a rifle in place to keep the rifle firmly fixed in place. This means a shooter will not be required to repeatedly set up or remove a rifle every time he, she needs to take a shot.

The mount has a swivelling capability for lateral and vertical movement. The tension controlled vertical and horizontal swivelling action has a range which is unmatched by any other rest ever developed for the doors of a vehicle.

The arms are also telescopically adjustable for height and length to adjust for each rifle and shooter.

The Short Racken Rest is designed for:

• Shooting from a vehicle
• Safe firearm storage while in the field
• Toyota Land Cruiser with quarter window (note: not all Landcruiser models need the short model. Mainly needed for square shaped windows)
• Hi-Lux old models
• Land Rovers
• Rear Windows
• As a universal model: By adding a shorter strut to the front, the Short Racken Rest II can be modified to fit almost all windows (note: The standard issue front strut may be too long for standard shaped vehicle doors, a medium strut will be needed - Contact us for assistance)

Advantages of the Racken Rest II:

• Shooting accurately from vehicle: Less energy used to eradicate pests
• Speed and accuracy: Eliminating the need to remove and replace the rifle while driving makes it extremely fast to get a shot off when needed. Also the ability to swing in many positions eliminates the need for the shooter to constantly readjust the vehicle if the animal moves from its position
• Mounting: Easy mounting technique makes it fast to mount and remove
• Enhanced shooting positions: A shooter can easily shoot ambidextrous because of the great support provided by the design
• Accuracy: Consistent accuracy and easy to use left-handed
• Reduced or no recoil: The rest takes the impact of the rifle
  silent adjustability will not give away your position while setting up your shot
• Elevation: Fast and smooth elevation adjustments are done while keeping sight on the acquired target
• Durability: The structure being made predominantly of steel is heavy duty

Racken Rest II Upgrades:

• Included double swivel mount: Now included as a standard issue
• Sturdier build: Eliminating welding on key points has enhanced the weight bearing capacity of the swivels
• Longer mid tube section: Allows more adjustments within the cradle
• Extended rear arm: Longer extension arms allow for more adjustment for rifle positioning in the cradle and comfort for shooter adjustability
• Ball points locators on the base: Provides a home position where the swivel arm is gently but firmly locked into position
• An optional balance strut: An after-sale item for heavy barrel and suppressor type firearms we have an option to attach a strut which helps bear the forward heavy weight of the firearm
• An optional “Lean to Pad and Brace”: An after-sale item for shooters that simply want to shoot from a padded bar as a secondary option as opposed to fully mounted in the cradle
• Off set arms: An after-sale item for rifles with magazines we have developed a configuration that allows for large magazines and pistol grips
• Strap down option: An after-sale item to counter the talk of barrel interference and accuracy from strapping over barrel
• New: colour and sleek looking design
• Note: The Racken Rest II (Short model only) now comes with longer V-mount tubes, for extra height adjustment abilities that may be necessary for lower window sills
