Heretic's Review of BlackHawk Sportster Pivot Bipod
Sturdy and stout with one misgiving.
The stud mounting mechanism does not provide an assured equal grasp on the sling mount stud via the two attachment ears with clamping tangs. These are my own terms for description. The tangs being those small posts which are affixed into the sling mount stud holes on both side.
I pressed a suitable O ring over the two attachment ears, onto which the tangs are mounted, which supplied adequate clamping pressure onto the attachment ears to insure the sling mount was fully engaged both sides with both tangs. Otherwise theres diminished assurance of equal engagement.
Had the spread of the ears been perhaps 1/8 wider in manufacturing this may very well have been resolved. Eventually, years from now, the O ring with deteriorate and fall off.
Worked well on Ruger M77 .338 Win Mag. with legs folded either forward or reward. It is very flexing a few degrees of left to right scanning and with great vertical/horizontal crosshair adjustment on uneven surfaces.
