Abstract
An adjustable portable shooting bench is built about a length adjustable longitudinal structural member with front and rear supports, a rear seat, a forward pivot axis mount on which are rotatably and adjustably mounted radially extending supports carrying an elbow tray and a muzzle rest tray.
Claims19
A portable adjustable shooting bench comprising
- a longitudinal structural member having a front end and a rear end;
- a seat mounted toward the rear end of the longitudinal structural member;
- a rear support structure proximate the rear end of the longitudinal structural member;
- a front support structure proximate the front end of the longitudinal structural member;
- a pivot axis mount proximate the front end of the longitudinal structural member;
- a first support extending radially from the pivot axis mount, said first support being adjustable through an arc of at least about 270°, and supporting a muzzle tray thereon;
- a second support extending radially from the pivot axis mount, said second support being adjustable through an arc of at least about 270°, and supporting an elbow tray thereon;
- wherein the length of the longitudinal structural member is adjustable from a shorter length to a longer length, thereby correspondingly increasing the distance between the seat and the pivot axis mount.

A kit for the assembly of an adjustable shooting bench comprising the following parts:
- a length adjustable longitudinal structural member having a rear end with a mounting plate proximate thereto, and an opposite front end;
- a foldable seat having a bottom adapted for securing to the mounting plate;
- a rear support assembly mountable proximate the rear end of the longitudinal structural member;
- a cylindrical tube attachable vertically near the front end of the longitudinal structural member;
- a first support extending longitudinally from a cylindrical wall at a first end to a second end;
- a second support extending longitudinally from a cylindrical wall at a first end to a second end;
- a muzzle tray attachable to the second end of the first support and an elbow tray attachable to the second end of the second support.

A method of assembling an adjustable shooting bench kit which includes a length adjustable longitudinal structural member with a front end and a rear end;
- a foldable seat;
- a rear support assembly;
- a front support assembly;
- a pivot axis mount;
- a first support extending between a first end to a second end;
- a longitudinal second support extending from a first end to a second end;
- a muzzle tray;
- and an elbow tray comprising the steps of:
- (a) positioning the rear support assembly proximate the rear end of the length adjustable longitudinal structural member;
- (b) attaching the front support to the front end of the length adjustable longitudinal structural member;
- (c) attaching the foldable seat proximate the rear end of the length adjustable longitudinal structural member;
- (d) attaching the pivot axis mount proximate the front end of the length adjustable longitudinal structural member;
- (e) adjusting the length of the longitudinal structural member and thereby adjusting the proximity of the seat to the pivot axis mount;
- (f)(i) attaching a first end of the first support to the pivot axis mount;
- (ii) attaching the muzzle tray to the second end of the first support;
- (iii) rotating the muzzle tray radially about the pivot axis mount to a desired orientation and securing the first support in the resulting position;
- (g)(i) attaching a first end of the second support to the pivot axis mount;
- (ii) attaching the elbow tray to the second end of the second support;
- and
- (iii) rotating the elbow tray radially about the pivot axis mount to a desired orientation and securing the second support in the resulting position.
