Don&#8217;t worry though, they also sell their products in the US <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mtngear.us\/products\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"the-best-hunting-bipod-is-out-of-this-country-mtngear-mountain-bipod-reviewed\" title=\"The Best Hunting Bipod is Out of This Country! MTNGear Mountain Bipod Reviewed\">here<\/a>. Of their mobility solutions and firearm accessories, the Mountain Bipod grabbed my attention when I saw that it weighs only 5.4 ounces! It also takes design inspiration from one of the most popular and versatile bipods on the market, the Ckye Pod. But make no mistake, these are two very different creatures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Mountain Bipod that I have for review is the ARCA attachment model which weighs 5.7 ounces. Its legs adjust outward in five positions and forward in three positions at 0, 45, and 90 degrees. I&#8217;m calling the stowed position of the legs parallel to the barrel or stock &#8220;0 degrees.&#8221; This bipod can also pan 360 degrees, tilt 70 degrees each way, and has twist-lock legs that provide a minimum height of 4 inches and a maximum height of 15 inches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_3754-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"MTNGear Mountain Bipod lays on a rock background.\" class=\"wp-image-205068\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Mountain bipod is only 5.7 ounces as seen, with all the adjustability that you could wish for.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-mountain-bipod-is-unique\">The Mountain Bipod is Unique<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ve been through countless bipods during my endless search for the best equipment for hunting applications. In the end, I still carry an extremely heavy Ckye Pod in the mountains because I am not willing to compromise on the versatility of this bipod. The ability to adjust the legs outward, forward, pan, tilt, and maintain a large minimum and maximum height is mandatory in rugged terrain. Consequentially, the weight of the equipment that can accomplish this is secondary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mtngear.us\/product\/bipod\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"the-best-hunting-bipod-is-out-of-this-country-mtngear-mountain-bipod-reviewed\" title=\"The Best Hunting Bipod is Out of This Country! MTNGear Mountain Bipod Reviewed\">Mountain Bipod<\/a> does all of this while weighing between 5.4 and 5.7 ounces depending on if you have an ARCA or Picatinny attachment. That is over 1 pound less weight than the bipod I once used for hunting!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_3727-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"A black carbon fiber rifle is set up to shoot on a tan rock pile. \" class=\"wp-image-205073\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">When sheep hunting, sometimes you run into extreme environments that some equipment struggles to adapt to, but the Mountain Bipod conquers all. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-is-the-mountain-bipod-durable\">Is the Mountain Bipod Durable?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Mountain Bipod is built with titanium critical components that are involved in adjustability, while the rest of it is basically clad in carbon fiber and aluminum. This bipod&#8217;s construction shows purpose-built design and great engineering that utilizes the best material for a given application. Because of this, I had no issues or concerns beating it up with my lightweight 7mm PRC or 338 EDGE. Even at full leg extension, I was able to heavily preload the bipod. The spiked feet allowed me to dig the bipod into the ground and really apply pressure to the buttstock with my shoulder. The Mountain bipod handled this, and a large amount of recoil like a champ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_3498-1-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"A rifle is at the gun range with brass piled around it. \" class=\"wp-image-205074\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">On several different occasions, I attached the Mountain Bipod to heavy-recoiling, magnum rifles and shot boxes and boxes of ammunition.

The other two buttons (left and right) control the forward and rearward position of the legs. The ratcheting lever on the ARCA mount can be pulled out and twisted out of the way without loosening or tightening the mount. Finally, the twist lock legs do not slip or come loose under use.  <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-best-hunting-bipod-option\">The Best Hunting Bipod Option?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, there are other lightweight hunting bipods available on the market. So many that there are probably some that weigh less than this Mountain Bipod made by MTNGear that I&#8217;m not aware of. However, I&#8217;ve yet to find one that weighs so little and still provides so much adjustability and strength. I think this is the best bipod on the market currently for applications where weight matters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>READ MORE: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/why-changing-out-your-ar15-charging-handle-is-a-good-idea\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"the-best-hunting-bipod-is-out-of-this-country-mtngear-mountain-bipod-reviewed\" title=\"The Best Hunting Bipod is Out of This Country!
