A firearm holding device for holding a firearm having a forend, a grip and a buttstock. The holding device comprises a base having a longitudinal axis, a forend support mounted on the base for supporting the forend of the firearm, a grip support mounted on the base for supporting the grip of the firearm, and a buttstock support mounted on the base for supporting the buttstock of the firearm. At least one of the forend support, grip support and buttstock support are moveable on the base along the longitudinal axis of the base to accommodate various sizes and types of firearms.
1. A firearm supporting device for supporting a firearm with a first portion and a second portion spaced apart from the first portion, the supporting device comprising:
a planar base having a longitudinal axis and an interfacing groove along the longitudinal axis, the base being configured to rest on an external surface;
a first support coupled to the base and configured to carry the first portion of the firearm, wherein the first support is removably and movably coupled to the base such that the first support is selectively movable along the longitudinal axis; and
a second support movably coupled to the base and selectively movable between a first position and a second position spaced apart from the first position along the longitudinal axis, the second support being configured to carry the second portion of the firearm and selectively inhibit movement of the firearm along the longitudinal axis relative to the second support, wherein the second support is removably coupled to the base and wherein the second support comprises first and second clamp assemblies for inhibiting movement of the firearm along the longitudinal axis;
wherein the first support comprises a first section coupled to the base and a second section movably coupled to the first section, the second section including a support surface positioned to contact the first portion of the firearm; and
wherein the second section is selectively movable relative to the first section to adjust a first distance between the support surface and the base and a second distance along the longitudinal axis between the first and second supports.
2. The supporting device of claim 1 wherein:
the first support is removably and slideably coupled to the base along the interfacing groove; and
the second support is removably and slideably coupled to the base along the interfacing groove.
3. The supporting device of claim 1 wherein the first support is selectively movable along the interfacing groove.
4. A firearm supporting device for supporting a firearm with a first portion and a second portion spaced apart from the first portion, the supporting device comprising:
a planar base having a longitudinal axis and an interfacing groove along the longitudinal axis, the base being configured to rest on an external surface;
a first support coupled to the base and configured to carry the first portion of the firearm;
a second support movably coupled to the base and selectively movable between a first position and a second position spaced apart from the first position along the longitudinal axis, the second support being configured to carry the second portion of the firearm and selectively inhibit movement of the firearm along the longitudinal axis relative to the second support; and
a third support coupled to the base along the interfacing groove and positioned between the first and second supports, the third support being configured to carry a third portion of the firearm between the first and second portions.
5. A firearm supporting device for supporting a firearm with a first section and a second section forward of the first section, the supporting device comprising:
a base having a longitudinal axis and a track along the longitudinal axis;
a first support for carrying the first section of the firearm, the first support being coupled to the base at a position along the track; and
a second support for carrying the second section of the firearm, the second support including a first portion coupled to the base at a position along the track and a second portion movably coupled to the first portion, the first portion having a canted surface, the second portion including a support surface positioned to contact the second section of the firearm, wherein the second portion is selectively movable relative to the first portion to adjust the position of the support surface along the longitudinal axis and a distance between the support surface and the base.
6. The supporting device of claim 5 wherein the second support further comprises a retaining assembly for selectively inhibiting movement of the first portion relative to the second portion.
7. The supporting device of claim 5 wherein:
the base defines a plane;
the second portion further comprises a canted surface facing the canted surface of the first portion; and
the canted surfaces of the first and second portions are canted relative to the plane.
8. The supporting device of claim 5 wherein the first support comprises a clamping assembly for securing the firearm to the first support.
