Rez 4,957 Posted September 21, 2014 Report Share Posted September 21, 2014 (edited) What's the deal with pods chaps? Might stick one on my SE and was wondering how much they get in the way re rifle slips, standing shots... Everything other than prone, where Im guessing they come into there own. Big bags can come from pods and a decent PCP, but it's surely a case of sitting and waiting when using them. I like the Harris 9-13 inch jobby. With regard fitting it just goes on a front mounted swivel... But any? Or just the screw? Thoughts would be muchly appreciated. Edited September 21, 2014 by Rez Quote Link to post
moxy 617 Posted September 21, 2014 Report Share Posted September 21, 2014 If you make your mind up, just hold your horses a little while before buying. If it all works out I may have some new Harris bipods for sale at a good price for THL members I will confirm once I know a little more......... Quote Link to post
logan esq 99 Posted September 21, 2014 Report Share Posted September 21, 2014 I'm looking for a new one, I have a 3-9" which is good off the bench but 9-13" are better in the field, if I'm not mistaken. But don't have the cash right now for one. Was contemplating sticks but not sure if I'd get on with them. I don't find they get in the way thou, they clasp onto the front sling screw then your sling attaches the the bipod. ATB 1 Quote Link to post
