What Gun Vise Is This?

[JimFromTN]

Does anyone know what kind of vise this guy is using in this timney trigger installation video? I have never seen one and can't find it anywhere. Is this an actual gun vice or is it something custom made or possibly something repurposed?

Looks like a custom with a toggle clamp on top.

Custom made and very useful. Thats all aluminum and should be very heavy. The machine hold down clamp and v block is how hes able to spin it around and not have to loosen it. Very good idea

Fixture looks custom made.. 2"x6" rectangular tubing / The vise part looks like machined Delrin / Clamp looks like a Carr-Lane

I sent an email to timney asking them about it. They responded almost immediately and said their lead engineer Calvin built it. She said if she can, she will send me the details on it. Wonder if they named the Calvin Elite trigger after him.

Looks handy and easy to make.

MarkT, you sure that’s tubing? For it to be heavy I’d say it would have to be solid.

I don't know for sure.. might be solid steel after looking at it closer. Could be aluminum..It does look well made...

If you look close its solid aluminum. They used a corner rounding end mill on the edges. Its possibly anodized with a faint transparent gold or could be the lighting
