I wanted something new for F-Class comps but didn't like anything on the market so I combined an old Harris and Borbro to create this.
My new Bipod

Re: My new Bipod
Nice looking setup...center of gravity looks good and low.
How do you like those Near rings and base?

Re: My new Bipod
I was thinking of calling it the Mantis. I took the canting mechanism from the Harris and crafted a bottom cradle to attach the legs from the Bobro. The legs are fully ajustable and do fold foreward. The center of gravity is much lower and I can feel the stability. I kept the swivil mount option for the Sentinal stock I have on the way. Otherwise I would have incorporated a pic rail lever.

Re: My new Bipod
I also owned a GG&G but it was too high for my rig. It is very similar to the Bobro. The Bobro was also too high, thats why I sunk the rifle down below the top of the legs.

Re: My new Bipod
Is your Sentinel stock new? When did you order?
The new ones are coming with an interchangable system, can take either a harris or a rail style mount.

Re: My new Bipod
My Sentinel stock does have both options but the inlet for the Harris just seems like the right way to go.

Re: My new Bipod
I like it, agree that it looks like a spider, but I like it
Besides the innovation on the look, any gain on the feature side?

Re: My new Bipod
It feels all around better. The low center keeps it from tipping side to side due to recoil. Thanks for all the posotive feedback guys!
