ABSTRACT:
A frame system that converts to a four-leg support base for use with backpacks. The base eliminates the need to carry a tripod or monopod. Two threaded bosses are use to accommodate attachments such as a shooting rest or to accommodate surveillance or test equipment. The main part of the frame replaces the top hoop found on many external frame backpacks. The frame has two angled members that accept a pair of legs. These legs are made of several parts to permit many configurations. The frame can be removed from the backpack as well. This makes a free standing base that can be used in seated or prone positions; it also leaves the pack portion free to be used separately. Nylon sides or hoods can be attached to make the pack assembly act as a blind or a windbreak. Also, an aluminum table can be attached to the frame for cooking, etc., as desired.
