Top 10 Best Gun Vises
for September 2023

The Tipton Ultra Gun Vise is the original, and still one of the best, gun vises in the market for cleaning and gunsmithing. The clamps are made of glass-filled nylon, so they are extremely sturdy and virtually unbreakable, and the front clamps are adjustable (the rear ones can be adjusted but aren't independently). The vise mounts directly to the benchtop, so you won't have to worry about keeping it secure when you have to move it. The vise is held onto the benchtop with 4 feet of non-slip padding, and the vise is adjustable (it pivots) so you can adjust the height to any surface that has the proper height clearance. The vise comes with 2 adjustable accessory trays, so you can store all of the tools you need while you're working. The Tipton Ultra Gun Vise has a lifetime warranty, and Tipton's customer service is excellent.

The CTK PRECISION Gun Vise Attachment is a very useful accessory that transforms the P3 Ultimate Shooting Rest into a gun vise, and it does so without sacrificing comfort or stability. The Vise attaches to the P3's legs and provides a steady platform to steady your rifle or pistol while you work on it. The Vise's rubber feet grip the P3's legs well, so it stays in place, and you can adjust the Vise's height quickly and easily.

It works well on both .22 and .45 caliber guns, though we found that the height adjustment was a bit tight with rifles (the height can be adjusted from 9.25 to 10.5 inches), but pistols don’t sag, so the gun fits on the Vise perfectly.

While our testing revealed that our pick's gun vise had greater clamping force than most of the guns we tested, it still outperformed our pick's gun rest, which couldn't hold a rifle firmly enough for us to make accurate measurements. The gun vise also came with a number of helpful accessories, including a safety strap, a gun cleaning kit, and a tool holder. The vice is well-designed and easy to set up. Its solid, well-pounded construction, plus its simple, lightweight design, made it our pick.
