Weird vise

[EJM02]

Can anybody explain what the hole is for? Horizontal pole mount option? Can't wrap my peanut sized brain around this.

See how the vise base or pedestal has a cylindrical post that the vise swivels on?
The vise can be removed, rotated so the vise jaws are vertical rather than horizontal, and mounted back on the swivel base post using the extra hole in the vise body.

Off topic, but I HATE when people post an ad that says "make offer" ��

I'll guess the seller doesn't know you can flip the vise 90 degrees and mount it on that post. It's in Bell Gardens which is hisp gang territory. Probably safe during the day tho.

Looks like a beefier version of a Versa-Vise. Cool!

Oh its that guy. He must snag a large amount of the used machinery and vises in the LA area and then puts them up on Craigslist for high dollars. I am surprised Craigslist has not booted him yet for the 100 ads he spams at any one time as an owner, not a business.

A few pics of this unusual Fray Mershon All Angle 4M vise.

I have a Brownell's gunsmith vise similar to that and the Parrot vise. I use it most every day. This one looks much thicker and stronger than mine. I would like to know much he would take for this ?? I think I would offer $ 50.00 and see what happens.

He knows what he’s has. I offered him a really fair price. He replied with I’ll let you know. Shopping around.
