Following the success of the 13”-27” Mil Spec Tilting Bipods Global Rifle made to enable the military to shoot over poppies and maize, they decided to increase the production to include bipods in 6”-9” and 9”-13” sizes, and have sold several thousand since their launch last Summer. Snipersystems Mil Spec tilting bipods are similar to the 20 year old Harris swivel design, but are made of much lighter materials, and many engineering improvements have been built in to make them more user friendly, lighter in weight and less likely to pinch fingers!
The Mark 11 version, incorporates a tilt locking mechanism so the “Swivel” action, that enables the rifle to be tilted on the bipod to accommodate rough ground, can be stiffened up or even locked in one position both quickly and easily. This ratchetting lever is similar to the American “Podlock” , previously only available as an accessory and only suitable for fitting to the Harris, and not to many other designs of bipod.
Fala Newell, the designer of the Snipersystems bipod stresses the importance of shooting with the rifle upright, and not tilted over—a common cause of inaccuracy.
Although originally designed for centrefire rifles, the Snipersystems bipod can be used on almost any rifle or air rifle, so long as a sling swivel stud is attached to the stock.
The three sizes accommodate all types of shooting, be it benchrest, prone, sitting, kneeling, shooting off the bonnet of a car or over crops.
The great advantage of the 13”-27” has been proven time and time again by snipers, stalkers and vermin controllers who have found that they do not need to risk being seen by their quarry whilst trying to find something to lean on—they can stay hidden behind crops or heather and shoot over the top.
