Gun Mounting Device

Abstract

A gun mounting device comprising a gun rest bridge and a C-clamp. The gun rest bridge comprising a central beam horizontally extending between a pair of cradle bars, and a pair of cradle rests atop said pair of cradle bars, where said pair of cradle rests are U-shaped to accept a barrel of a gun. The C-clamp attached beneath said central beam, where said C-clamp comprises a pair of arms to receive a support item into a central portion of said C-clamp, where said pair of arms include a first arm and a second arm; a clamp rod threaded through said first arm; a turning handle connected to said clamp rod; and a grip pad connected to said clamp rod opposite to said turning handle wherein said turning handle rotates to move said grip pad towards said second arm to secure said C-clamp against said support item.

1 . A gun mounting device comprising:
 a gun rest bridge comprising:
 a central beam horizontally extending between a pair of cradle bars, where said pair of cradle bars extend vertically from said central beam; and 
 a pair of cradle rests atop said pair of cradle bars, where said pair of cradle rests are U-shaped to accept a barrel of a gun; 
   a C-clamp attached beneath said central beam, where said C-clamp comprises
 a pair of arms to receive a support item between said pair of arms into a central portion of said C-clamp, where said pair of arms include a first arm and a second arm; 
 a clamp rod threaded through said first arm, where said clamp rod moves in and out of said central portion towards said second arm; 
 a turning handle connected to said clamp rod outside said first arm; and 
 a grip pad connected to said clamp rod opposite to said turning handle; 
   wherein said turning handle rotates to move said grip pad towards said second arm to secure said C-clamp against said support item to provide a stable support for said gun when using said gun mounting device.   
     
     
         2 . The gun mounting device according to  claim 1 , wherein said central beam is attached to said C-clamp with an attachment bolt with a swivel head to enable said central beam to rotate on said attachment bolt. 
     
     
         3 . The gun mounting device according to  claim 2 , wherein said attachment bolt is connected to a central portion of said C-clamp to enable said C-clamp to attach to a top portion of said support item during use. 
     
     
         4 . The gun mounting device according to  claim 2 , wherein said attachment bolt is connected to said second arm of said C-clamp to enable said C-clap to attach to a side portion of said support item during use. 
     
     
         5 . The gun mounting device according to  claim 3 , wherein said attachment bolt includes a second attachment bolt connected to said second arm to enable said central beam to interchange between being attached to said central portion and said second arm of said C-clamp. 
     
     
         6 . The gun mounting device according to  claim 1 , wherein said support item is one of at least a box stand, tripod stand, tree climbing stand, truck tailgate, fence, chair, gate or hunting blind.
