Fastened to the belt by metal loops, a patented rest for the hunter’s shotgun or rifle holds the muzzle aloft to avoid accidents, and reduces muscle fatigue by supporting the gun’s weight. It also helps get a faster bead on game since the gun is always in readiness for quick action. Built to accommodate average-size gun butts, the rest works on a swivel permitting an inch of movement for convenience when worn on either the right or left side. It is made of steel and aluminum and weighs only six ounces.
