P3 Shooting Rest and Gun Vise

Since I live in a condo these days I have to limit the amount of space I can devote to all of those accessories which make working on firearms or shooting easier. As a result, I am always on the lookout for devices which are simple, compact and multifunctional. That's why I like the
P3 Ultimate Shooting Rest and P3 Ultimate Gun Vise Attachment.

The Ultimate Gun Rest may be used for sighting, testing groups or chronographing either pistols or rifles. By carrying out a quick conversion, the P3 Shooting Rest becomes the P3 Gun Vise which allows easy cleaning, repair, bore sighting or other tasks on the rifle, shotgun, submachine gun or the major subgroups such as the barreled action or stock.

The Ultimate Shooting Rest allows easy adjustments to properly position nearly any firearms for shooting. The shooting rest is of heavy duty steel construction with a wide front V rest that first all firearms. The rear shooting pad and the V rest are padded to protect the weapon from scratching. Note, too, that the padding is solvent safe to allow no-worry cleaning. The feature that makes the P3 Shooting Rest so useful for sighting in scopes or adjusting sights is the ease of adjustment. The base has a three point leveling system with thumb locks that allow it to remain very solid on a shooting bench. The rear shooting pad telescopes so it may be adjusted for height and angle to fit the weapon being shot. The front V rest also telescopes. A useful feature of the rear rest is that the carpet which covers it has a center groove which helps create a tight fit and also allows a rifle to be sighted without removing swivel studs. If one plans to sight both rifles and pistols, the changeover is as simple as sliding the rear shooting pad forward for pistols or to the rear for long guns.
