Has anyone mounted a rifle rack to hold a carbine length long gun, inside their teardrop? I have a Marlin 1895 STP (16 inch barrel) that I would like to mount in my (future) trailer. I am thinking about quick and easy access while camping in bear country.

I was just wondering if anyone has done this, and can you post pics?
Obviously the gun would need to be stored away while moving. The reason I ask now is that if I do order a trailer, I might ask the builder to incorporate a rack or suitable shelf into the design somewhere.. say horizontally above one of the doors:
I'm thinking about using a Santa Cruz electric locking rack, like the ones you see holding shotguns in patrol cars, with a hidden 12 volt push switch and ten second timer nearby .... about US$150.
Thanks.
