Default [Woodworking] 3 gun dump box

just finished this this morning, most of the build was yesterday. i'll build a duplicate later this week, as the range wants several for use in 2/3 Gun matches.

that's a full size Beretta 92, Mossberg 18" model 930 semi-auto shotgun, and SW MP-15 rifle with stock fully extended.

i might know the owner of the guns.

material cost for one dump box is about $73.

Vastly preferable to leaving the pistol on the table, and dropping empty long guns in a trash can!

Nice work. Does it have drain holes on the bottom?

No drain holes. It’s only brought out during matches. Not left out all year.

3 gun, as the name implies has competitors firing each weapon, then moving from station to station. As a safety measure the guns are left behind at each station, "dumped" as the shooter leaves the station.
Penalty time to DAB for his photo... if I am not mistaken dumped weapons should be "shown safe" IE without magazines and with slides locked open.
I only see a chamber flag in the Mossberg.

Just showing how the various types of gun fit in my driveway. All unloaded.

Plus you would not stand down range of such a box if the guns were still loaded.

Nice project(s). Looks like they may fold flat(ish) for storage?

I must confess, I do not know what these are or their function.

I'm concerned my man card will not get punched.
