Wooden Gun Vise

[Jig Stick]

My gunsmith has this awesome wooden hand made gun vice that he uses when working on rifles. I asked him who made it, and went to that person to buy one. But that guy is retired and not making them any more. A google search didnt come up with many hits. Im looking for a nice wooden sturdy gun vice to use when cleaning my gun or mounting scopes etc...Somebody here must know somewhere I can get one.

Well, how much do you want to pay for hand made custom.......

Don't know about wooden vices, but I just picked up a Tipton Best Gun Vise. It's pretty slick and will be good to go for most of my basic needs.

Pony up a few pictures of your 'smith's vise, as it sounds like that would make you the happiest, and I'll see what I can come up with for materials/labor.

I like some of the vises that Brownells has to offer. I was lucky to pick up one of their pattern making vises in the bargain basement. Very nice. I am looking at this vise paired with another down the bench a bit to hold the stock.

If that helps at all.
