Anybody have any ideas what to use to attach the gun to the pack. That is the only thing I am missing before my pack is complete. I just don’t want to go through the hassel of fabricating the brackets. Any alternatives and where to get them? ---

Some folks will sell you a set of brackets identical to those from the movies. Do a Google search to see who still sells them. (This will be your most expensive option.) A lot of people have used the brackets that Dixie Cup dispensers use. These can be had for pretty cheap (about $3 if I remember) on eBay or just do a Google search. Personally, I used the eyepiece track from an old VHS camcorder because it was free and worked great. ---

No, that would be the male part that’s on the gunblock. But yeah, Stefan’s plans have the measurements for it. ---

The dixie cup holder didn’t last too long. It started bending and the gun was sliding right through it. I had to bend it back into place a few times. But I guess that’s what happens when everyone kept yanking it out. ---

!!!oh man, I’ve had a few people try to yank the gun off, but the gun hook actually sticks sometimes, a fact of which i’m quite happy, so they’re weren’t able. Drunk guy grabbed it and started pulling saying oh man, can I see this? can I see this? Can I see this? Can I see this? I was like, hang on HANG ON So I pulled it off and handed it to him and he almost pulled the damn wand off…AHHH crazies!!! ---

Yeah, I had similar experiences on Halloween, too. Drunks and [proton packs](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack) don’t mix. There is something that just makes them want to grab and tug on every part you shouldn’t do that to. For example I had a friend over to my place, she got very, very drunk and tried to pick my pack up by the injection tubes under the [power cell](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/power-cell)…could have killed her. ---

I found a nice bracket system at Home Depot that works out great. Thanks for all the great suggestions everybody. I will post some pics when it gets finished. ---
