I’ve been spending a lot of time on the range with my CUR in .25-45 Sharps. It has become the rifle that is most available around the house here at Shadowland and there will soon be a rack on the Ranger where it will spend a lot of time. And, while I’m a guy that believes an unloaded gun is somewhat pointless, there are times when I like to have a gun unloaded with ammo readily available. In West Virginia, like in many states, you cannot be hunting and have a loaded firearm in a vehicle. (In WV this does not apply to personal protection handguns.)
What I needed was a way to keep a loaded magazine close to and available for the CUR. Stumbling around on the Internet I found a unique stock accessory from Blackhawk. It straps on to the butt stock and will hold one 20 or 30 round or two 5 or 10 round AR 15 magazines.
Originally designed for AR 15s, it works perfectly for the Mossberg MVP. If you have an MVP chambered for the 5.56 NATO or the .300 Blackout or, if you plan on converting one to .25-45 Sharps, this is almost a must have.
Now I can store the rifle unloaded in a vehicle or anywhere else I desire and a fully loaded magazine or two are readily available. At $ 25.99 each, I ordered two of them. After all, I do have two CURs built on MVPs.
