Question for any Nomad owners who use the Nomad Gun Bearer, do you feel the need to put some kind of padding between your rifle and the frame or not? If you think there is a need for padding, I wonder if it would make more sense to just get some type of padded scabbard set up instead. Thanks in advance

I've never seen a Nomad 2 on a frame in person so I can't say but my guess is no. However, there is no right or wrong way. If you need or want padding than do it. I have a Thermarest Z Lite. That may be a great way to pad your rifle if you have one. A scabbard would be overkill though and weight I wouldn't want to carry.

I run a padded Oregon Packworks scabbard in my Nomads attached with 4 condor clips. I feel better with a $9K rifle in tow.
