The Forster Swiv-O-Ling Vise (brand part no. SV1000) is a bench vise built specifically for gunsmith work, with a swiveling base that lets a part be repositioned to a comfortable working angle without loosening and re-clamping the jaws. Forster Products designed it to hold firearm parts, small assemblies, and jigs steady through drilling, filing, staking, and other detail work where a fixed-position vise forces awkward hand angles. Being able to swivel the work in place instead of the whole vise saves real time across a long bench session. It’s a solid addition to the rest of our gunsmithing tools and gunsmith supplies lineup for anyone setting up a serious bench.

Key Specifications

• Swiveling Base Rotates the clamped part to a new angle without releasing and re-clamping the jaws.
• Gunsmith-Specific Design Built around the kind of small parts and jigs used in firearm work rather than general shop tasks.
• Bench-Mounted Format Designed to be mounted to a workbench as a fixed station rather than a handheld tool.

What kind of jobs is this vise meant for? Detail gunsmith work like drilling, filing, staking, and fitting small parts or jigs where working angle matters.
