secretagentmole Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 The Harris bipods have a lifetime warranty, I bought a Harris copy, it wound up in the bin, the thing kept breaking, the last straw was when a spring came off and whacked me in the knuckles. I bought a Harris, it has now been twice as long owning the Harris, nothing has gone wrong! Buy a Harris! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also have these on both of my rifles. They are sturdy, well made, easy to fit, are quick release, adjustable height and have 'swivel action'. Had them for a while now and I must say that they wear very well - excellent buy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I then posted the "Versapod" suggestion. I've just retried the link and - waddaya know? - it's a Versapod clone. In actual fact, I have a *real* Versapod and a Buffalo River clone. I can't really fault either of 'em. They also fit each other's attachment. Do the Deal Extreme ones fit the Versapod / Buffalo River stuff, I wonder? Regards, Mark.

NIGHT SEARCHER Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 Hello I have a BSA Ultra can anyone recomend a bipod that is easily detachable for storage. John I have a bipod that fits on any gun with a front stud fitted its very good. But i find that it hardly gets used and the weight it adds to the gun that`s fitted with a big scope for roaming around the woods it makes the gun heavy. I prefer to use a shooting bag nice and light and no damage to the gun and silent. But its Horses for courses its what suits you and what your used to. HAPPY.

ChAoS Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 (edited) I've only one "Harris" bipod and it's a clone, not a *real* one. The OP says that he wants an *easily* detachable 'pod. Can someone tell me how easy it is to attach a *real* Harris? My clone is a right royal pain in the bottom. I always end up fiddling and faffing when I want to fix it on. The Versapod - and it's clone - are *really* quick to attach and detach. Before posting this, I gave it a quick test and I reckon I can afix a Versapod-type bipod in well under a second; detaching is even quicker. So, are real Harris' a lot better than my (Buffalo River) clone or is it that other shooters are just a lot more dexterous than me? How accurate have the Chinese* cloned the Harris? (I hear a tale that the Chinese copied the Winchester 1897 shotgun but, unfortunately, copied a *worn-out* '97. Apparantly, they made a good job of it...)
