    Bipod ID

    How does one tell whether a bipod is genuine or chinesium? Does the genuine Harris have any markings? I assume this is a cheap copy but would be good to know if it’s the real deal. Came with a recent rifle purchase.

    Looks to be very similar to the bushbuck one I have ie out of China. What's the threaded portion of the adjuster look like?

    Edit: Nevermind can see in first photo. Looks identical and I notice the grippy pads have slipped same as mine.

    On the inside of the side plate where the legs swing down it will have HARRIS stamped in there on one side.
