Afastr Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 Anyone know of any cheapish maintenance stand / vices for rifles? I'm after something to hold the gun while I have a go at some chequering.. Had a quick look around and the ones I've seen are a bit naff and I could probably make something better myself rather than pay the prices they're asking.

station Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 You'd be better off with a good wood vice and solid bench to hold it still whilst trying to do chequering - the normal ones are OK for maintenance or fitting scopes etc, but not solid.

Bewsher500 Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 personally I dont think a vice is best for chequering especially where the wood curves you would be better off holding it allowing to rotate the stock as you do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamiedenny Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 Have a search on you tube for huntersvermin. He shows a step by step build of rifle rest with mdf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamiedenny Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 :-). Good luck, I've watched it but yet to actually invest the time in making it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
