How To Install the K4 Rifle Carrier
Installation of the K4 Rifle Carrier is incredibly simple. In the video below, we demonstrate how to set up both the upper and lower sections of the rifle carrier. This process works for both right-handed and left-handed shooters, and is relevant for K2, K3, and K4 Pack Systems.
Important Installation Notes
- Ensure that the Lower buttstock carrier is installed with the gray tab facing out
- Adjust both sides of the Lower's webbing to ensure that the Lower sits level
- Position the Upper as close to your shoulder as possible. This keeps the weight of the rifle close to your center of gravity, and also makes it easier to reach.
- Ensure that the female buckle is installed closest to your body, and the locking male buckle is installed further away from your body.
- Ensure that the Upper wraps around the forend of the rifle's stock, not just the barrel of the rifle. You can raise/lower the rifle by making adjustments to the Lower.
- You can setup the K4 Rifle Carrier to hold your rifle on the rear-center of the pack.
- Using the Upper portion of the Rifle Carrier is optional for a rear-center setup. You can also use the pack's built-in compression strap to wrap directly over the top portion of the rifle.
- Keep in mind that rear-center carry places the weight of the rifle much further from your center of gravity and that can have negative affects on how the pack feels when loaded with moderate to heavy weight.
