New Magpul Sling Stud QD Bipod Fits Hunting Stocks
Are you looking for a stable bipod that attaches quickly and easily to the sling stud on your hunting or varmint rifle? Magpul has a new bipod that fits standard hunting-style, radiused fore-ends well. This new Magpul Sling Stud QD Bipod clamps to a sling stud in seconds. Watch the video to see how it works.
Priced around $110.00 on Amazon, this new Magpul is more expensive than a Harris-type bipod, but it has some advantages. There are no exposed springs to grab your hand. The vertical leg adjustment is quick and easy. There is a large knob in the center that allows you to traverse (pan) left to right, while keeping the feet in position. In addition, by loosening the knob you can tilt the rifle up to 25° from vertical either side (i.e. rotate the rifle around the bore axis). For this kind of rotational adjustment, a Harris swivel with a Pod-Loc is faster and easier, but the Magpul isn’t bad.
The legs consist of anodized 6061 T-6 aluminum shafts inside injection-molded, reinforced polymer columns. The legs stow neatly forward and lock into place with one hand. You can adjust leg height from 6.6″ to 10.0″ using push-button locking detents. Should users choose to change feet, the Magpul bipod’s legs accept most Atlas-pattern bipod replaceable feet.
Magpul Sling Stud QD Bipod Features:
• Rapid, self-locating mounting system attaches to Sling Studs on narrow or wide fore-ends.
• Up to 25 degrees of tilt either way around the bore axis of weapon (50 degrees total).
• Uncle Mike’s-style sling stud on rear of mounting body.
• Efficient individual leg height adjustability in 0.5″ increments for a total of seven positions.
• Adjustable friction knob for setting tilt and ease of movement.
• Removable rubberized feet compatible with Atlas pattern replaceable feet.
