ABSTRACT:
A bipod support for a firearm comprises a first strut and a second strut angularly related to each with one of the struts having an elongated projection serving as the rest for the barrel of a rifle or a pistol when the two struts are positioned upright on the ground. In one embodiment, the first and second struts are hinged to each other so that they may be folded relative to each other for compact storage. In an alternative embodiment, the first strut is a hollow tubular member and the second strut may be placed inside the first strut in a coaxial telescoped manner for easy storage. One end of the second strut is beveled so that when it is inserted in an opening in the wall of the first strut it forms the desired angular relationship therewith. A series of rubber grommets on the barrel of the second strut resiliently engages the inside wall of the first strut when the two parts are telescoped together to thereby frictionally maintain the parts together and avoid relative movement therebetween.
