Not sure of the brand, but it's a table top tripod. You can see that it been adapted to the gun with the addition of a picatinny rail.

Vinny it looks a lot like the one lab radar sells
I looked at it a while back I was going to do a project too and that was the one I decided I was going to get .

I don't know the model. But I know photography a lot better than I do pcp.
My impression for rifle rests (which also applies to cameras) is generally you want the stiffest, strongest legs.
If you are going to raise the tripod from that flat position, it has 2 locking rings per leg. That will be way wobbly compared to bipod 2 piece leg. The lab radar is probably stiffer since also 2 piece.
Then the question of how strong are the locks. Does it even lock if there is weight and force applied.
The tripod head. For that size, to lock in position, it can only handle tiny camera or maybe phone. Weight like slr or rifle? No way it could lock up.
Just my opinion. But as long as super low and pivotable are your desire it will work.
(Still a newbie for pcp. I did purchase a little rifle tripod. Legs can't go that low at all. 6" min ht? And no ball head. Just a rest that can rotate or lock)

It's a tripod from Leofoto, I have the same one. Here's a link:

Per Amazon description, all my points of concern may not apply to this particular tiny tripod. 12 pounds on a head that small is super impressive.

a much cheaper idea would be to take a rail mount sling swivel, drill out the swivel, tap it 1/4-20 and thread it on like you would a camera. One like this should work
