ABSTRACT:
A rest which provides an extremely simple, inexpensive, rugged, and durable structure for firmly supporting the barrel of a pistol or rifle during firing. A base having a plurality of legs, one of which is adjustable, is adapted to be supported in a generally horizontal position on a surface by the legs. An L-shaped pedestal is mounted on the top surface of the base and has a threaded opening formed in a cantilever portion of the pedestal for adjustably receiving a threaded shaft therein. A V-shaped gun barrel support member is rotatably mounted on the top of the shaft by a plurality of rubber O-rings. The support member includes a cylindrical bushing frictionally engaged with the O-rings and a V-shaped bracket covered with a protective material mounted on the top of the bushing. A resilient pad of material is mounted on and extends along the rear portion of the base on which a shooter's hand and forearm is supported when firing a pistol supported by the rest.
