The present invention is a device for supporting the weight of a gun, in a vertical orientation, with the barrel end of the gun facing the ground. The device comprises a platform large enough to fully engage the barrel end of a rifle or shotgun, and an outer lip fully encompassing the platform to prevent the gun barrel from slipping off the platform edge. In addition, the device has a clip for engaging an ankle strap, which secures the device to the exterior of the wearer's footwear and ankle. With the present invention, a sportsman may safely place the weight of a rifle or shotgun to his or her foot without sacrificing ready access to the weapon.
