Your insight to: a BiPod that Fits FX Impact's Compact "stock" lower rail

[CheckUrSix]

 Been looking at the: UTG Recon 360 TL Bipod, 7"-9" Center Height &



Atlas V8

Any thoughts if the UTG 360 will fit the FX and can it lock the up/down & 360 well?

Thanks.

I've got a couple UTG Recon 360 5.5 - 7.0 bipods models TL-BP01 & TL-BP02. I think your asking about the locking and that works great on these tough little bipods. Good side swing and up down movement if needed and if not just tighten up the base for no movement. I've swapped one around and it always mounts with no problem. As for fitting on an FX that I have not done YET, but Christmas is coming.

Shomer,



Thank you as I have heard OK things on the UTG....Price friendly at approx $67.00.

Additionally heard better things on the Atlas V*...........However approx $219.00 amazon.



Jus wondering if the trade offs / Pricing is worth the extra $150.00 approx.... for simply sighting in and really Not using much?

Take a look at the Spartan "Javelin" bi-pod. I have and highly recommend their Pro-Tac model. I have their "long" version. Very nice product. They are not in-expensive, quality costs money.

Tim,

Thank you...I looked at that as well.....Noticed it attaches with a rod???

Do you need a Ad-On Pic mount adapter

Thanks you for responding!

 There is no "rod" involved.

They (Spartan) sell a picatinny adapter, a smal item that mounts to the pic rail and the bi-pod attaches to that. I really like this bi-pod for it attaches and removes in seconds, this is great for 80% of the time I don't need one so no reason to have it installed all the time and when I do it is silly fast to install. It is held on by a powerful earth magnet, it is a brilliant concept. The bi-pod weighs ounces so a breeze to carry in a belt holster (optional). I also have a "Redkettle" brand sling that has a "Javelin" specific holster built in so it is always within reach.

Tim,

Thank you I Really like this Spartan design / BiPod............w/ magnet design!

I have a FX M3.......same as a MK I or II for mounting.....what are you running the "REDKETTLE on. will it configure to a AR type congig. brand sling



Seems as if you have done your research....

Thanks!

I can second the recommendation for the UTG Recon 5-7”. I have one that I move between my Impact MK 2, Wildcat MK3 and my Crowns. It works flawlessly, attaches to the Pic rail on the guns easily and firmly) and has adjustable angles, all for an extremely good price. I can’t see a reason to spend more (and I do have a bunch of Harris iPods and an Atlas on my Powder burners).
