Thread: Hardys Carbon fiber Bipod - Any thoughts?

They are built 95% out of aluminium and other steels and then they have put some carbon fibre tubes on the legs that dont really serve any purpose other than sucking people in because they can now call it a "carbon fibre" bipod, and carbon fibre is cool. Personally I would just run a proper atlas on a chassis rifle. Also, you said you had a bad experience dealing with DPT... try asking Dan Hardy about a problem with one of his products and see how far it gets you....

I would go for an Atlas which is what the Hardy is a copy of.
I really rate them quick and easy to fit and remove.

yes - I understand that... but atlas + 2x the price of a hardy ?

https://www.optics-trade.eu/au/tier-...cal-bipod.html better option ?

I have a atlas (from a mates doomed AR) and two harrises. The atlas has a lot less crap hanging off it to get caught on things and the legs can fold either fowards or back. I used a sling stud to rail adaptor off ali express to mount it to a normal hunting stock.

Harris sell a flat/wide forend adaptor. I use one with a Harris on my McMillan 2.5" wide HBR stocks

Never seen one in person but going from the photos looks like a knock off harris bipod that has had the guys own (3d printed?) mounting system added to it.

Again the above bracket is curved while my rifle is flat

I have the rugged ridge bipod which is the same as the hardy. Hardy is quite different from atlas.
Not sure who coppied who with the hardy one.
Seems a good solid bipod. Legs easy to deploy. And very solid. Makes a good shooting platform. May be selling mine if my rifle sells if you are interested

Nothing a bit of a heat and a hammer wouldn't fix...

It's the mounting system that interests me, the swivel mount bipods are a pita

Looks pretty similar and are cheaper even in NZ
