Really, I like the standard Plano brand shooters box. It has two trays with the snap on sides that cradle your firearm. I use it with my rifles as well as my AR. Cheap and easy with built in storage that is good to go in the garage or at the range.

Post by: highmuley on August 03, 2012, 08:06:23 PM: I want to use it on rifles, shotguns, etc. But also, I hunt a lot with an Encore pistol. I would like the vice adjustable to accomidate ALL weapons, if possible. Kind of why I was thinking of building one. But, if ther IS a "universal" cleaning vice available....I can work with that too. Keep the suggestions comin. Thanks again
