The Wheeler AR Armorer’s Vise Block (Wheeler Engineering part no. 156224) gives you an ideal foundation for building, maintaining, and reconfiguring an AR-platform rifle. An integrated mag well insert securely engages the lower receiver and adjusts in angle to accommodate nearly any task, while an adjustable front support secures the barrel or forend in its tapered profile. Built on a rigid steel base with non-slip rubber feet, it works equally well holding a fully assembled rifle or just a bare lower receiver.
