ABSTRACT:
A portable gun rest is provided, comprising a thigh support member adapted to fit over a user's thigh; a telescoping support assembly pivotally connected to the thigh support member, wherein the telescoping support assembly includes a longitudinal axis; and a gun support member connected to the telescoping support assembly, wherein the gun support member is rotatable about the longitudinal axis of the support member. The telescoping support assembly preferably includes a first member and a second member, wherein the first member is lockingly slidable relative to the second member. The gun rest further includes a flexible strap connected to the thigh support member, wherein the strap is capable of fastening the thigh support member to the user's thigh. A locking mechanism is disposed between the telescoping support assembly and the thigh support member, wherein the locking mechanism is shaped and dimensioned to fix the rotational position of the telescoping support assembly relative to the thigh support member. Preferably, a cushioned surface is attached to the underside of the thigh support assembly for more comfortable use and so that the gun rest resists slippage while in use.
