    That's dumb.

    Looks good to me. I'm a big fan of the versapod/parker hale/bren gun style bipods.

    Good skill with the multiple reply Norway. @R93 would never go to a doctor just because he pissed himself. There are two occasions when good kiwi blokes can do that and not worry. The first is when we are having a good laugh as in this instance at your golf swing with a fencing baton and the second is when we get so mulleted (drunk) at our 21st birthday that we just don't care. Ha ha ha ha

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    The attachment system looks far superior to the traditional sling-stud clusterfuck.

    Better than the standard Versapod gigantic lump that takes 20 minutes to remove and weighs a pound, too.

    It is actually quite smart. A small threaded case is put over your ordinary sling stud. A steel bolt goes through the case and the eye of your sling stud. The adapter is put over both. Basically the construction makes it impossible for stuff to fall off, you need material breakage. It comes with a small tool, making it easy to tighten/ compress the rubber shim protecting the stock and thus stopping sideways movement as well.

    I lile the embedded pins best, but this was a smart solution to using the sling studs.

    I emailed them and they said the bipod will be available in Oct for US$350. Maybe a group purchase will bring price down??

    But yeah, I make sure I have my track pants on with elasticised waist when I get km's for the truck. That way its easy for me to pull my pants down when its time to pay for 10,000km...

    If it's not a first round hit you need to practice more

    Think I'll get one. Like most quality products it's expensive but over the long haul the cost is virtually negligible if you're using it often.
