" Ha ha, no. I'm thinking for camping this summer. You can transport firearms as long as the gun is empty and the ammo is stored separately. So I wouldn't be doing anything illegal although I'm sure I'd get some strange looks."

I figured as much, but couldn't resist. Here in AZ I always carry (.45) when off road or back road, even hwy stuff. Because space is limited I store the ammo in the magazine in the gun! But of course if you're wanting to hunt that's different.

 

I always carry a gun too...even on my mountainbike.

 

I have no advice to offer on how to mount a rifle to a KLX, but I did just want to chime in to say that I LOVE that this question got asked in the first place!

This issue would simply NEVER come up on any of the other forums I belong to for any of my other bikes. That fact somehow makes everything else seem so boring compared to the KLX!

 

Hunting wild boar?

 

I see farmers/irrigators regularly attaching a length of pvc pipe on the bike to carry a shovel. Attached low end near a peg and high end around the rear subframe. I once saw a hunter with rifle in scabbard mounted similarly, but didn't get a good enough look to offer any suggestions.

 

What other forum is that, cytocis?...the Honda Metropolitan forum?

But seriously, what's the reason it wouldn't come up?

 

guns, goats, boars, shovels...what can you not carry on a klx?

a 4in .357 revolver makes a great camp firearm.

 

NcSTAR Tactical Shotgun Scabbard, **BLACK** | eBay

I have one in digital camo for my 12 gauge with a pisol grip. I know its a shotgun scabbard, not really meant for a rifle but its inexpensive, has many points which im sure you could find useful for tying it down. If your not wearing a pack, it comes with an adjustable shoulder strap. Undo the buckle at the bottom and it folds out and extra 4 inches if needed.

 

I saw these which seems pretty easy to do. Just a matter of finding the right case.

 

I just ordered a 32" case of that company's for my tactical shotgun that has a folding stock. I noticed that model you linked has metal D-rings that look suitable for strapping to all manner of places and vehicles.

I just built a 12ga tactical shotgun...or at least putting it together as all the parts come in.
