imschur Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 Anyone here every handle one? http://www.gggaz.com/index.php?cat=144 Ive read that it shares its heritage with the BOBRO unitsIm thinking of trying one out
98Z5V Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 I've got that very bipod, brother, the HD XDS. Lemme know what kind of pics you need of what part, anything about it, whatever. Tom
imschur Posted March 3, 2010 Author Report Posted March 3, 2010 Awesome, Do you recommend it? Is it as heavy as it looks?
98Z5V Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 I recommend it enough that I'll buy another one for my .308, so I don't have to switch them out. ;D That one pictured is for the 5.56 precision gun. I'll grab a weight on it right now, and edit up this post with the details.Highly, highly recommend it, big time. EDIT - 504 grams = 17.778oz
98Z5V Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 Drew, if you want to borrow this thing and try it out, let me know. I'll be zeroing the .308 no later than next Tuesday, and I can send it out after that. Don't know when I'll get to shoot again, but I can use bags after that, if you still have it.If you want to give it a test drive, just say it. Shoot the info to me, and I'll get it out to you.
imschur Posted March 3, 2010 Author Report Posted March 3, 2010 Thanks for weighing it up and the offer to borrow it, very generous of you. Im going to order it in a week or two. Im about $100 short at the moment. Burned through my cash with a new scope and camera last month ;D
98Z5V Posted March 4, 2010 Report Posted March 4, 2010 Right on, man - you'll love the thing. ;DJust ordered up the new BCM Gunfighter .308 charging handle myself.
imschur Posted March 4, 2010 Author Report Posted March 4, 2010 Right on, man - you'll love the thing. ;D Just ordered up the new BCM Gunfighter .308 charging handle myself.I was just looking at that. If you dont mind grab me some images for the main site when you get it. feedback would be welcome too ;D
98Z5V Posted March 4, 2010 Report Posted March 4, 2010 Well, like a dumbass, I wasn't looking at what I checked for shipping. I didn't even look at the order details until the confirmation was sent to my email. I apparently checked the "USPS Priority" block somewhere in there... ::)When it gets here, I'll shoot some semi-decent pics of it separate, and in the gun. I'll for sure let you know when the thing gets here. I ordered the large latch, Mod 3 version, and I've got a Mod 3 AR-15 version I can set it beside for pics.
imschur Posted March 12, 2010 Author Report Posted March 12, 2010 The bipod arrived today. Holy cow are these things built tough. Clever design too.
98Z5V Posted March 12, 2010 Report Posted March 12, 2010 YES!!! I just saw this topic pop back up, and I was hoping it was this - "Received!" The thing is tough! I used it today on the 308 - have no fears, man. I've been tossing the idea around to pick up the lighter-duty one for the 5.56 gun, and leaving this HD one on the 308 for good.
imschur Posted March 12, 2010 Author Report Posted March 12, 2010 Im going to do that too. Every now and then they knock like $30 off of them in the email specials. Ill grab one for sure.One question, theres what looks like an adjustment knob at the bottom. I cant seem to turn it. Whats its purpose? Its the off colored knob in your bottom picture
98Z5V Posted March 12, 2010 Report Posted March 12, 2010 Adjusts the tension on the swivel (left and right cant; unlevel ground). It was probably cranked down (locked) from it's origin. Loosen it lightly with a pair of pliers if you need to. When you mount it up, you can loosen and tighten while you're testing the swivel tension, and find what you like. There's either a bronze or brass bushing in there, and the thing is smooth.
imschur Posted March 12, 2010 Author Report Posted March 12, 2010 Thanks, I was afraid I was doing something wrong. Im just a wuss
