Default Hatch gun rack?

Anyone seen or heard of having a gun rack on the rear hatch? and yes the part that opens? If not shoot me some cool ideas!

The weight of the rack and guns would rip the liftgate apart, if the fasteners held at all.

This and not only that but the vibration and banging from closing the hatch would probably do a number on scopes.

Hatch is probably the last place to mount a firearm. If the CJ guys can do this you can too!
(I know, I'm thinkin the FSB ghosts like a ***** in that scope, but whatever.)

Must be a California thing.

Not afraid of stickers in these parts.

That would be cool but overhead console would be in the way for me.
