Height and length are adjustable at several points. There is a special type of vise for holding the gunstock. As usual, the vise bolt pulls the movable plate toward the fixed one but, like some of the vise's predecessors, traces out an arc at the top, pivoting from the bottom as the bolt, situated just above the pivot, is turned. Within the movable plate a special cylinder is situated which gives and turns freely in response to the bolt's advance and withdrawal in passing through a threaded tunnel within it. This action prevents the biting down or binding upon the bolt which would otherwise occur because of the plate's pivoted travel as the bolt is advanced or withdrawn. The support's framework, best made from economical tubular bar-stock, is adjustable for leveling and leaning corrections and include anchoring blocks within the structure through which leveling bolts pass.
