Ridge Rock Bipods

SharpShooter14 · 2nd Feb 2008, 13:04

Has anyone owned/tried one of these before. They look identical to the harris ones and have all the same features. Apart from the price difference, whats the difference between these two makes?(If there even is one)

Thanks

the only difference is build quality, a harris is better, but the ridge rock come a very very close second, my mate uses one and he has no trouble at all with it/

Cheap copy of a good bipod, I wouldn't want one as a gift. I have most of the "Harris" 'S' series bipods.

I had a Harris which was too long so i visited the gunshop to get a different model,all they had in the swivel version was the Rockmount,i had a look at it & it seemed sound so i bought it,i've had no trouble with it whatsoever,why there seems to be this myth that they fall apart as soon as you bolt them to the rifle i don't know

Thanks for the help guys

I think i'll stick to my Harris S LM 9-13. i looked at the Ridge Rock and it looks the same but the build quality isn't the same IMO.

ive got a shooters ridge bipod and its bloody good for the money.i personaly wouldn pay the extra for a harris.the harris may be better quality but its not that much better.not nearly double the price better anyway.
