Mounting a rifle on a mystery ranch pintler

[6cmShooter]

I got a Mystery ranch pintler at the beginning of the year for this fall hunting season and just realized while getting my pack setup finally that side of the pack that can be used to strap a rifle to the pack is very much not going to work for me. Doesn't hold onto the gun almost at all. I am wondering how everyone is strapping there rifles down to there packs? Pictures of your setup would he appreciated. Thank you.

Not a MR, but this should still work using the lashing system on the frame. I go between the pack and the frame, built in gun boot on this one can go on any side of the pack, but I like it how the picture shows.

You might look at picking up a detachable rifle boot, it should be able to mount to that pintler about anywhere you would need. Badlands has one, EXO as well, KUIU has a bow holder but it will work for a rifle, theres a number of them out there that will work.

I bought the stone glacier quick release sling and retrofit it to my MR metcalf.

I picked this up last year and it's worked great with the Pintler : https://www.creativeoutdoorsmt.com/products/slik-sling-rifle-sling

If I am hiking in the dark or somewhere where theres 0 chance of a shot I throw my rifle on the meat shelf on my MR. If im actually hunting its slung over my shoulder

I have a slick sling set up on my pintler for this year too. Has worked great on my training walks so far

Not a Pintler but Slik Sling works great on my Sawtooth 45

I have the Metcalf. The kifaru branded sling doesnt fit on the Molle webbing on the hip belt? Looks like it may?

This is what I use with my MR pack.

MR just shows them sticking the butt in a bottle pocket and using the straps to hold it to the pack

I got the Pintler. I use the Kifaru gun bearer. I also have a little sling hook that straps to the shoulder strap that works pretty well. Sometimes I strap the rifle across the back of the pack. Many different options.

This is what I did and had no problem. There may be better options that allow a rifle to be more available to be put into action quickly.

For me, the Kifaru gun bearer is the best system

Fits like this on my MR Mule.
