Looks great and practical. Nice job.

I've used one of these from MTM the past few years...

The one the OP made, allows cleaning from the rear, which is the recommended end to clean the bore from. I have the same mag well insert, that I chuck up in a vise, on my work bench and use it to support my AR.

While perhaps not obvious, the one I posted above allows that as well, either in a hinged position or with the upper removed and laid across the forked uprights. You'll notice one is notched deeper than the other to create the applicable slope for drainage.

If I want to use it hinged, I just slide the plastic compartment lid over and use the link I received with my Dewey rod cleaning kit.

I have never cleaned my rifle in any other manner but from the breech to the muzzle.

I usually just put a receptacle over the muzzle end to catch CLP, solvent or patches. Works perfectly and makes cleanup a breeze.

Couple scraps of 2X, some 1X12(?) a few brackets and some paint and you have made yourself a helluva rig there, nice work.
MacGuyver would be proud.
I can't see it in the pics, but I just bet you have some sort of soft padding where the barrel rests.

I am going to make me one of those today, Sure hope you do not mind me using your photo's as an example.

Nice job

I just hold my gun. This would probably be easier.
