Overhead Rail Gun Rack
I am determined to customize some sort of gun rack using the "Useless" overhead rails in my 06 F150. I have been sketching up some designs tonight paired with some Brews and I want to know it anyone has looked into doing the same.
I don't want to drill into my roof and I want to be able to take it off after the hunting season is over. Here is what I have so far....

Seems like an interesting idea.
Since rifles are rather heavy, and going down rough roads would increase the stress on the rails, I think I would look at a way to grip the inside, and outside of each rail rather than just the outside. That would make things a lot more secure.

I have this one that mounts on the back of my seats. I use it for my levels everyday, and my guns during deer season.

I can't remember exactly where I ordered it from, but i know cable's carries them. Walmart has them also.
I just googled "seat back gun rack", and a bunch of them popped up. Under $20 if I remember correctly.
