Real Avid Master Gun Vise

Designed as a purpose-built bench vise for firearms and gun accessories, Real Avid’s Master Gun Vise includes an articulating ball-and-socket joint that allows gunsmiths and hobbyists to orient a secured firearm in any direction without having to release the vise jaws.

In addition to its standard set of vise jaws, this unit also features Gun-Fit sleeves with molded-in surfaces designed to secure Picatinny and Arca-Swiss rails, while the reverse surface includes high-density foam that prevents damage to wood stocks while still securing them for maintenance. The Master Gun Vise also includes a precision-leveling knob that allows the vise jaws to be tilted three degrees to either side for micro-adjustments when installing optics.

Suggested retail price is $299. For more information, please visit realavid.com.
