Rear Bag Spacer? DIY?

[DngBat7]

For my Edgewood mini gator can spacers be made? instead of having to purchase? Any ideas are welcome. I would imagine there needs to be some grip to them

Thx

Hi Dan,

Get a dead bag first, then a trip to Walmart you will find some small cutting boards with rubber edges. That would give you at least an easy 1". Do you have neck issues, where you need the stock up higher than typical?

Good luck.

A friend gave me one recently made of new horse stall mat.

No neck problems. I have a Seb mini. And I ordered the f class feet, which are about 1.5 inches high alone. So even with the Seb mini at its lowest setting, with the feet it is very tall. So I need to compensate. In the rear when I am on a bench

Go to TSC. and they sell rubber mat in1/4 and 3/8 thickness. the sell it by the foot, set your bag on it and run a silver maker around it and cut it out. Do a couple an d for the bottom one cut the center out and leave the 1 1/2" at the out side. That takes the rocking out on the uneven bench tops and ground...... jim

This is exactly how mine is setup. Even used Liquid nails to glue it to the bottom of the bag. Works great, from lumpy ground, to concrete.

There are some issues to consider when using spacers under your rear bag. Some shooting sports have rules about containment. I am under the impression that if it a true part of the rear bag, no problem. If supporting it in ways that are meant to contain it, it can cause an issue. Just a thought. I was called out for using rubber pads under and on top of a flat board spacer to keep it from slipping was a violation. Mostly from people that are just a PITA. Steve

1”x 4”(6”) or 2” x 4”(6”) board cut to length you prefer to fit under your bag. Bond (glue or self-adhesive) shelf/drawer non-slip rubber liner material to top side as desired.

That is what I made mine out of as well.
