The Cowboy Coffin is the secure way to keep your weapons from dust, dirt and the bad guys. It holds 5 long guns (3 rifles 2 shotguns) in the same sort of cradle as the Range Kart. But instead of a Range Box or other sort of box, there are compartments for your cartridges and handguns in the lid of the Coffin. Wheels are 16 inch spoked on an aluminum axle that is tapped to accept the 1/2 inch threads on the wheels, and two 1/4 inch bolts secure it to the Coffin.

A 36 inch piano hinge is on the right side; the Coffin is approximately 47 1/2 inches inside height, and 20 inches wide at the shoulders, inside measurement. It is made of 1/2 inch birch, double-sided plywood top and bottom with the side 3/4 inch alder or ash (as availability allows--this wood is strong and light). There is a leg on the top back which will be the handle allowing the Coffin to be maneuvered much like a hand truck. Between stages you can "lay it out" and sit on it! For a picture of the Coffin closed, check out the Range Box and click through to the modification of the tray.

Guns are able to be carried with the actions open, and you can remove your guns, muzzle up, for safety and in compliance with the rules. As with our Original Range Kart, The Cowboy Coffin Cart can be disassembled--wheels, axle, legs. The chain that you see here on the open compartment (above & lower right) has been replaced with a leather strap.
