    Hi guys, Matt here from MTNGear with bit of an update. We have all the production run parts except titanium bolts and nuts that we decided to go with last minute (other than springs there is zero SS hardware used on the bipods) and stickers. We are working through assembly which is taking a while as you can imagine with 11,500 parts (including the last MTNStick run).

    We have two bipods with slightly different features which will probably be dictated by the type of terrain you intend to hunt in. We have really focused on function over anything else as without decent function you may as well shoot of your pack. Im sure everyone has fumbled around with a harris bipod legs trying to get it level enough to use the limited tilt function when it would be faster to shoot of your pack!! However, we have managed to get these items to very low weights while including all these functions and at a price that is not totally ridiculous:

    Key features are:

    Backcountry bipod:
    -Full cant and pan rotation.
    -Carbon fibre legs which are adjustable from the top of the legs.
    -Quick attachment and detachment using secure universal picatinny rail system that will work with future MTNGear products.
    -Legs adjust forwards for stowing away and increased high adjustment.
    -Height adjustment from 18cm (7.5") to 31cm (12").
    -119 grams (4.2oz). (We believe this to be the lightest fully functional bipod in the world)

    Mountain bipod:
    -Full cant and pan rotation.
    -Carbon fibre legs which are adjustable from the top of the legs.
    -Quick attachment and detachment using secure universal picatinny rail system that will work with future MTNGear products.
    -Legs adjust outwards and forwards for increased high adjustment and usage in even the steepest of terrain.
    -Height adjustment from 8cm (4") to 41cm (16").
    -142 grams (5oz).

    Hoping to have them out at the end of Jan however I will be hunting the last week of the month so see how that plays out.

    More info can be found at the webpage and more will be uploaded as I have the info/videos pics etc ready
