    Aliexpress carbon bipods

    Has anyone had any success with bipods from aliexpress?

    I've been told there is a good carbon one on there somewhere, but I thought I'd see if the community had any direct experience.

    I bought one off aliexpress, worked well. Quality wasn't the same Harris bipods etc. (as can be expected) but for the price its worth it in my opinion. Just be careful that the seller isn't a scam. Shipping took 1.5 months too

    I've been looking at this one. I'm pretty sure they're the same ones gun city sell for $299.

    We’ve got them in stock for $199.
    We been through a few different makes of the LRA copy. They all differ in quality and functionality. Generally the more you pay the better you get.

    How does it compare to the magpul ones you have? They are only $50 more by the looks?

    Jaysus, there are always 2nd hand Harris bipods coming up for sale on this forum for 1/2 to 2/3 price of a new one.

    Just get one of those and avoid the guaranteed tears when the Chinesium clone craps out.

    And as an added bonus you can sleep at night knowing you have not helped finance the biggest assholes on the planet. (CCP)

    The magpul that 55six has are my favourite bipod. So easy to use and adjust. Make other expensive brands seem fussy and fiddly.
