Range Carts

[alfsauve]

Years ago I build my own with plywood.  Skeletonized but still heavy.  Came with a seat.  Then I got the Leaf and the CRV and it didn't fit and I went with the foldup canvas wagon.  I’m back to a pickup so compactness isn’t an issue any more.  The wagon ain’t cutting it.  I see a lot of different carts out there.     Got asking around and who knew but the Ultimate Frisbee and the Cornhole people have the solution. Who'd thunk the latest greatest thing'd come from Frisbee people.

Zuca (sands the diacritic's) is the maker of these super carts. 
But then Dynamic Discs company, who make 100 different variations of Frisbees, OEMs the Zuca cart frame and makes specialty carts just for Ultimate Frisbee.
(You know just like many would be amazed at all that goes on in the shooting world every weekend, I'm just awed, yes I said "awed", with all the activity in these sports.)

BUT WAIT.  THERE's MORE.

S3 Range Carts also OEMs the frames and outfits them specifically for the shooting sports.  Mainly for the action pistol ones; IDPA, USPSA, ICORE, SCSA etc.

It's a lot like my old wooden one only so much better.  This solves so many issues I'm having right now, that the wagon isn't helping with.  Built in seating. A place to clamp an umbrella. A tray.  Bottle holders.   I was able to OEM a Transit model, 24" wide with big wheels, at almost half what the others charge.  Now I'm staring out the window waiting for the Wells Fargo Wagon.   I should be able to get it configured out by Sunday in time to take it to World Speed Shoot on Wednesday.  My Midway Bag is perfectly sized to fit the frame.  I'll just need a seat cushion and clamp on my umbrella pipe.

Love it.  Has the Dynamic Disc logo in the front but otherwise labeled Zuca.   Wish it had a few more hard points but I'm still playing with it.  My "fanny pack" is across the back for storing food and "stuff" as is the trauma kit.  A towel, gloves and the tourniquet are hanging from the handle with carabiners.  All I'm missing is a mount for an umbrella and a seat cushion.   I've reduced what I carry out to the range by more than half in volume and at about 33% savings in weight.

Talladega - World Speed Shoot here I come.

Add a motor and 2 wheels connected to the tiller, and I'll be ready to get one too.

Have taken it out to three practice sessions at the the range, to Talladega for the World Speed Shoot and to S. Rivier GC for a local, 6 stage, Steel shoot.  Works great.  I've added a PVC tube on the back for the umbrella.  Used 3D printing of course for the spacers and mount.

Now that I've moved to PCC Irons for a month or two, I thought it'd be tacticool to have a mount for the PCC on the side.  So after a bunch of time with the 3D program I came up with mounts that perfectly fit the PC9.  As a precaution to rules and safety, I have a trigger guard and a muzzle guard.

But having hauled it out to one practice session, I've done a 180 and think I prefer to go to the line with the PCC in a range bag.  So off go the 3D printed mounts and on go two Home Depot tool holders.  Just the perfect size and shape except I bent the outside ones a little to accommodate the extra width of the bag. 

Still haven't found the right material to pad the seat, but so far not a big deal.  Everything fits in it.  One compact package.  At the end of the day I collapse the handle and put the whole thing in the crew cab of the truck

How big is the seat, Alf? I have Car Center Console Cover-Armrest Box Mat, Memory Foam Leather Arm Rest Covering Car, Arm Rest Cushion for SUV/Truck/Vehicle (Black) new in the plastic bag, that I haven't returned to Amazon.

Made of premium leather surface, thick enough to prevent your vehicle from wear. The center console cover have a waterproof surface which is wear resistant and durable, breathable and lightweight and safe to use. Length: 12.2 inch, Width: 8.26 inch.which fits the center console of most vehicles, but not mine. It looks more like 8.5" x 12.5" to me. It's supposed to slide over the lid of the console, but mine is too wide. Made of soft, pure thick memory foam. Open your car center console box, then pull the cloth tape on the back of the car armrest pad for installation, and finally put the car center console in. The cloth band is about 7.5" long, flexible and strong and can keep the padded handrest cushion stable on the car center console box. If you're interested, let me know. It's about 2" thick, waterproof, and has a removable cover in order to better clean it.
