I previously reviewed the Real Avid Bore-Max Cleaning Kit and Mobile Work Station and the Real Avid Smart Assist Quick-Connect System-Essential 3 Pack With Smart Dock is made for it. I chose that to get the full use during this review.
Right away I found the Real Avid Smart Assist Quick-Connect System-Essential 3 Pack With Smart Dock to attach easily and the bendable arms stayed where you moved them.
The quick attach system for the Real Avid Smart Assist Quick-Connect System-Essential 3 Pack With Smart Dock is nothing short of incredible. Just clip into the hole and you are ready for use. Here is a close up look at a clip in use.
I had some cleaning to do on a Henry Arms .45/70 rifle and it became the test subject for this review.
The Real Avid Smart Assist Quick-Connect System-Essential 3 Pack With Smart Dock allows an increased handiness while working on any long gun. The removable and rechargeable light is quite bright with 2 area light settings and a regular flashlight mode.
With the handy belt clip the 180 lumen flashlight is more that just a gun cleaning helper.
The smart phone holder is a very handy way to watch instructional videos while working on your long gun or even filming your own work.
My almost half century old eyes certainly love the 5 inch magnifying glass. The Real Avid Smart Assist Quick-Connect System-Essential 3 Pack With Smart Dock was certainly well thought up during invention!
Did I mention the Real Avid Smart Assist Quick-Connect System-Essential 3 Pack With Smart Dock also has a “smart dock”? This handy mount can be added to a work bench or other area to allow use of the magnifying glass, light and smart phone holders.
I mounted it with 2 screws in the middle of my reloading bench. I have presses on all 4 sides of the bench and the smart dock allows use to all of the presses for the Real Avid Smart Assist Quick-Connect System-Essential 3 Pack With Smart Dock. All I have to do is bend in any direction I need them.
I found the Real Avid Smart Assist Quick-Connect System-Essential 3 Pack With Smart Dock to be an incredible set of tools perfect for anyone who likes to work on their own weapons, hunters afield and reloaders. Be sure to check out all of the other great products over at the Real Avid website.
