A combination of a pistol and rifle rest comprising, an elongated metallic unipod member having a sharpened end and having a step-on plate member for affixation into the ground, a gun supporting member including an apertured sleeve member freely movable along the length of the elongated metallic unipod member, a locking member also slidedly fits onto the metallic unipod member and co-acts with the sleeve member to vary the height of the gun supporting member, the locking member includes a threaded hole for receiving the threaded end of an L-shaped lock screw which engages the outer surface of the unipod member and acts as a stop for the sleeve member, the gun supporting member includes a long slender non-metallic body member which is pivotally connected to the apertured sleeve member by a threaded stud, a flat washer and a belleville spring washer that is situated on each side of a hole in the long slender non-metallic body member to provide frictional drag when a nut is screwed into the threaded stud and tightened to the proper torque, the gun supporting member includes a forward upstanding U-shaped cradle member for supporting the front barrel portion of the pistol and rifle and a rearward upstanding U-shaped cradle member for supporting the rear butt portion of the rifle, the innersides of the cradle members are covered by soft pliable material which protects the gun finish from being marred or scratched, the rear butt portion of a rifle sits into the rearward cradle member while the front barrel portion of the rifle fits into the forward cradle member, the two-point contact allows the rifle to sit steadily on the cradle members without the aid or assistance of the shooter, the gun supporting member also includes an intermediate flat plate-like member for supporting the handle of the pistol, the intermediate flat plate-like member is secured to the top of the gun supporting member and is covered with a soft pliable protective material, the pistol is permitted to stand freely by placing the front barrel portion into the forward cradle member and sitting the handle on the top of the first plate-like member, and the pivotal connection allows the shooter to freely change the elevation and angular position of the gun supporting member and, in turn, permits the shooter to quickly and accurately sight-in a target.
