Harris Bipod

[jonher 0]

Ok,

 

Got my rifle and scope sorted, now I need a bipod. Was wondering what model you would recommend as I have never had one before?

 

I have heard good things about the Harris Swivel Bipods! The rifle will be used mainly in a prone position!

 

Also, can anyone recommend a good place to buy one in the UK?

 

Cheers

9-13, notched legs and Swivel....Harris is the way to go!!!!!!

 

BUT..... the suggestion is the new Deben range is more than worth a look!! Only problem with them is, they are so new that there is no long term test comments available!

I agree with D here, no complaints about mine at all.

Thanks for the reply

 

Any ideas/recommendations where I can get one of these Harris 9"-13" Swivel, Notched at a good price in the UK?

They are the UK importers as well as retailers, probably the cheapest you will get, £5 or £6 delivery I think, but have a look!

York guns are importers also... I suppose its down to own choice but I prefer the standard legs over the notched legs.... also the genuine harris pods are better quality than the deben range...

I too prefer the standard legs with no notches I use a 6-9" swivel model, have a non swivel 9-13" that I don't use as I find it too hard on my neck when prone. As Ian says, don't but a Harris copy

Thanks everyone,

 

I got a Harris Swivel L 9-13" from Opticswarehouse £68.95, seemed to be the best deal I could find.

 

I have to say the build quality is second to none, can't wait to try it out

 

Thanks again

Just FYI but if you're looking for a genuine Harris, carefully read the descriptions and watch out for the phrase "Harris type", those will not be genuine Harris bipods

Sorry to disappoint you gilly but the harris is better than the deben style but they both do the same job, end of the day...

I like the BR models but have done most of my shooting from a bench. Below is the place I usually start at when looking for a good deal.
