UTV Gun Rack Overhead Holder - Adjustable 21-27 in Fit

Our review of this UTV gun rack finds it is a practical, no-nonsense solution for riders who need a secure overhead place to store firearms or a bow while on the trail. Designed to mount between roll cage bars spaced 21 to 27 in apart, this holder's single biggest strength is its universal mounting approach that fits round and pro-fit cages and keeps guns safely overhead and out of the cab. For anyone who wants a simple, sturdy overhead mount with soft padding and easy straps, this rack delivers clear functional value.

Key Features

• Universal Fit: Mounts to front and rear roll bars for vehicles with 21 to 27 in spacing, making it compatible with many side-by-side models.
• Soft Protective Foam: U-brackets include soft padding to prevent scratches and hold firearms steady over rough terrain.
• Easy Installation: Secures to the roll bar with non-slip rubber straps and adjustable brackets so most users can install it without tools.
• Sturdy Steel Construction: Made from high-strength alloy steel with a rust-protective black powder coat for durability in harsh weather.
• Space Saving: Overhead mounting frees up in-cab room and can carry two guns or a single bow without interfering with occupants.
• Adjustable and Secure Straps: Thickened elastic straps hold gear firmly and were upgraded for improved longevity and retention.

Who It's For

This rack is aimed at UTV owners who need a simple, robust place to stow rifles or a bow on off-road trips, hunters who want gear out of the way, and drivers of common side-by-side models whose roll cage spacing falls between 21 and 27 in. Its padded U-brackets and overhead location are especially useful for protecting finishes and keeping firearms from contacting passengers.

It is less suitable for vehicles with roll cage spacing outside the 21 to 27 in range or owners seeking a custom-fit, model-specific mount. Buyers with tightly specified fit needs for newer model years should verify clearance and fit before assuming exact compatibility.
