Used to have an MTM Vise but am looking at the Tipton Best. I have an AR now & I need all the Help I can get due to Arthritis & Such when Trying to Clean or Tinker. What Think? Thanks.

    I have a Tipton Best and bought the extra attachments for AR's and such. It's the best all around gun workstation I have. I wish it was much heavier and made of metal, but that's really the only nitpicking I can do. I've used it for cleaning, scope mounting, gunsmithing, and building an AR. I think it's the best option out there for the money.

    so I bought another one with all the same accessories as the first one . bought them both and the add on goodies on ebay in auctions and on sale at midway saved a few $$ .
    works for me I mean us [:D]
