Homemade Wooden Gun Vise
own wooden gun vise that cradles a shotgun or rifle for cleaning and maintenance or to make test firings and precise sight adjustments.
  A 3-ft. long 2 by 6 forms the base of the unit. There's a V-shaped upright at one end to hold the barrel and a vise at the other end that clamps down on the stock. The vise consists of one stationary wood block and a moveable block that's held to the base by a door hinge. It clamps down on the gun by tightening a wing nut on a bolt that runs through both blocks.
  All parts of the vise that touch the gun are covered by strips of carpeting to avoid scratches.
