Talk to spook, I believe he has made a few camera mounts for different types of guns.

I'll do that,thanks mate.

let me know how it works out for ya im very interested in mounting a cam to my gun.
i have alot of questions about them, the main one is dose it get n the way when loading?

Hi guys

I wouldn’t drill any holes into the barrel either!
This is my version of a mounting bracket.
It is dead easy job (20 min max) to make a bracket for a rail-gun, all you need is:

25 x 3 - 300mm long aluminium strip (Capral)
2 - 1/2" - 20TPI - SS bolts - 30mm long
1/2" SS flat o/sized washer
1/2" SS spring washer
contact glue (all from Bunnings)
25 x 2 - 70mm rubber strip
1/2" - 20TPI tap (M5 or M6 would do too, but 1’2” – 20 TPI is a standardised camera mounting thread at the bottom your camera so I’ve used same bolts for simplicity, you actually don’t need the tap if you fix the gun mounting bolt with a nut, but then you need two spanners to fit and adjust camera to the gun)

hack saw
wise
drill & bits


bracket assembly


parts


on a barrel up, ready


on a barrel down for loading


rotated down with camera


up with camera


LCD muzzle view


earlier version in SS, for pipe gun or rail gun without rail all the to the mech, rubber strip missing (very important)


SS bracket - top

Don't have any drawings of it, got it done on fly in my garden shed fitting it directly to the gun barrel.
