    New Leapers Bipod

    I received one of these from the States today. Not on a rifle yet, but I'm damned impressed by its robustness and quality. Swivels, uppy and downy and all over the place. Nice firm friction. Easily extended legs. Primo attachment.

    Leapers UTG Heavy Duty Recon 360 Bipod FREE S&H TL-BP01. Leapers Bipods.

    About $200 landed. Low dollar and freight nearly kills it.

    Do you need a rail to fit it?
    Cheaper than a Harris

    No. A sling stud attachment comes with it. So it can go straight onto a rail or onto the stud attachment.

    Scroll through the pics under the large pic, one shows the attachment.

    Can't enlarge it on my phone.
    Couldn't find a weight. Similar to a Harris?
    Let us know how it goes.

    That looks pretty good quality, what class postage did you use? $200NZD seems a big up from $80US

    Wow, $50US shipping, that is crazy.

    weight?

    There was no cheaper option for freight.
