LADDER RACK FOR A VEHICLE
A ladder rack for supporting a ladder on a vehicle. The ladder rack comprises a supporting arrangement anchored only along a single edge area of a rooftop, the supporting arrangement comprising a first load-bearing member entirely extending over the rooftop within an edge of the rooftop and a second load-bearing member extending substantially parallel to the first load-bearing member with a lateral offset, outside the rooftop and away from the edge of the rooftop. A ladder-supporting arrangement holds the ladder and connects to the first load-bearing member and to the first load-bearing member for supporting a weight of the ladder. The remainder of the rooftop surface is exempt of any member and is free for other purposes. The ladder is held on a side of the vehicle with an offset to be able to open a sliding door on the same side of the vehicle as the ladder rack.
MID-MOUNT FIRE APPARATUS
A mid-mount fire apparatus includes a chassis, a body assembly coupled to the chassis, a front cabin coupled to the chassis forward of the body assembly, a front axle coupled to the chassis, a rear axle coupled to the chassis, and a ladder assembly having a proximal end that is coupled to the chassis rearward of the front cabin and between the front axle and the rear axle. The ladder assembly includes a plurality of ladder sections. The ladder assembly is extensible to a horizontal reach of at least 88 feet. A distal end of the ladder assembly does not extend beyond the rear end of the body assembly when fully retracted.

Identification display bag with camera system
The identification display bag with camera system comprises a document pouch and a camera. The document pouch may be detachably coupled to the outside of a vehicle and may be adapted to hold one or more identification documents for inspection by a law enforcement officer during a traffic stop. The camera may record video and/or audio during the traffic stop. The identification display bag with camera system may be adapted to allow a driver to keep the driver's hands visible on a steering wheel to establish a safe environment for both the driver and the law enforcement officer. The law enforcement officer may observe that the driver is not reaching for a weapon and the law enforcement officer may be less likely to react to a perceived threat. The video and/or the audio may be available for review after the traffic stop, if necessary.

Apparatus for temporarily storing shotguns and rifles in field environment
An apparatus for safely storing guns in a field environment is disclosed herein. The apparatus is comprised of a recoil rest pad for receiving and supporting a gun's recoil pad and ensuring that it does not become damaged, a barrel support pad for securing the barrel of the gun within an interior diameter that is larger than the diameter of the barrel, and an opening that can be stretched, but wherein the openingin its unstretched stateis less wide than the diameter of the barrel, and an attachment mechanism for attaching the apparatus to a vehicle. Moreover, the various elements of the invention are connected by a fabric-type element, which makes the apparatus lightweight, and easy to pack-up and stow when not in use.
