It has occurred to me that if I had a CART of some sort, I could carry my SCBA Filling Station, all my pellets, tool box, and 1 or 2 guns all together, and sure save my self some walking when I decide to do a lot of paper-punching. So, who here has bought/built any sort of rig that fills the bill?? I've been back into airgunning over a year, and during all the surfing I've done in that past year (=a LOT) I've not seen anything about such a cart.. I've thought about using a two-wheeled hand truck, or two-wheeled cart that golfers use to carry their bag (golf bag that is ). I can build what bracketry/shelving would be required...but I'm still confused about what sort of vehicle to start with..Needs to be light but sturdy, have 2 wheels, and foldable (like the golf bag carrier-)if possible. Let me hear your ideas please..and IF you have any pix, well that would just be COOL BEANS !! TIA. _________________ HEY !!

I only have 100 feet to carry my tank to the refilling shed out back, so I don’t need any fancy. _________________ Glenn South Texas   Posted: Sat Jan 22, 2011 6:57 pm Alstone Moderator & Site Supporter Joined: 01 Mar 2007 Posts: 4139 Location: Linconshire, ENGLAND Get yourself a Quad Bike?

We use a two-seater Quad when the ground is wet or muddy using a side mount rack, but the guns are carried in their slips so I suppose this helps to soften the ride. I suppose that if you had the gun on a fixed mount it would shake it to bits.

Just need for moving around my property....hate having to walk back and forth to re-fill my AA S410...all my Crosmans are "bottle guns" and get at least 40 shots per fill ( one gets over 100! )..the S410 is Carbine and gets ~25 shots max. UGH..but I LOVE IT !!! And I don't want the larger "Classic" air tube cause it is longer and takes away from the carbine look..and only gives about 10 more shots Have gotten some great responses/pictures of different cart set-ups...store-bought and home-made.....I'm gonna check pawn shops and garage sales for a golf bag cart seems like it would be plenty stable, lightweight and inexpensive. _________________ HEY !!
