Premium Carbon Fiber Picatinny Rail Bipod with Twist Lock Quick-Deploy Legs - Tactical Shooting & Hunting Accessory for Rifles | Ideal for Long-Range Precision, Sport Shooting & Outdoor Adventures

I can understand that a product may work for some people, but not all. Fortunately, this bipod works well for me!First of all, the bipod is very lightweight. This is important because I do not want to lug around a heavy set up. My application requires that I get up from ground level and move frequently.There are some complaints of how the legs are attached to the center. The two Allen bolts can be lubed and adjusted, or even have the washer exchanged with a nylon type. I lubed mine and adjusted the tension, so there is no play but still easy to deploy.The leg length adjustment works as expected. A twist to loosen, another twist to tighten. In the field, I just leave the length alone once configured. No complaints here.The center of the bipod does not lock down completely, and that is actually what I want. The lever is a tension control. CCW to loosen, and CW to tighten. I only shoot a recoilless PCP .177 airgun with mine, and I prefer the tension to be snug but not stiff when I am ready to fire a shot. The level is conveniently located so it is easy to loosen up for tracking purposes.There *may* be ways to lock it down completely, I have not looked into it.The most frequent complaint is the lack of a quick detachment. I purchased a picatinny riser. Attach the bipod to the riser "permanently", and then you have a QD bipod! I have not found the slotted bolt of the bipod to come loose by themselves in my use.I can honestly compare this bipod with many other ways to support an air rifle. A regular tripod+Arca mount is solid, but it is way too heavy, it is also awkward to control the tension of the tripod head. A DeathGrip has too much play, and the same problems with a tripod. A ChairPod is too heavy to carry around, and the support is not stable enough. A FieldPod (Bog or Caldwell) is too cumbersome to set up for my application.This doesn't mean the other products do not work, just not as well for my specific application of needing to move frequently, having to sit on the ground as low as possible, need to scan around, and shooting with a recoilless airgun.
