Just got it in the mail today,,, got it of of eBay

eBay - New & used electronics, cars, apparel, collectibles, sporting goods & more at low prices

any way the QD lever locks down tight and the push button to fold it locks it folded and down,,,,,,,, you rotate the bipod legs to deploy them,,,,, it is also very comfortable in the hand,,, much more so than the standard grip pod that I once owned in the past

It seem to be built very tough and has some weight to it (not excessively so),,, seems like it will last pretty well,,,,

only thing IM changing is the spring that deploys the legs is super strong and hard to return them,, so ill be cutting one coil at a time till I get it where I like it....... All in all IM very happy with it,,,

ask away if there is some thing I didn't answer or a pic of some thing not shown
