I always thought they were cool watching the hog killing videos with night vision but that was all the thoughts of them. Until the other day, I had a terrible range session while attempting to shoot my loads I developed last week.
I did not have a table or even felt like carrying all my stuff into the pit but thought I'll just kneel and shoot as taught in the Army many moons ago. Well those days are gone and alas, the session did not go well. I was too shaky and could not get steady. And with my big belly I'm not able to lay prone to shoot anymore, no I don't wanna have to take a shovel to dig a hole to lay in.
An acquaintance on another board half hazardously suggested that I might want to try a tripod.
At that moment I seriously considered it, did some quick googlefooing and an hour later I had a confirmed order for a BOG Deathgrip aluminum precision tripod.
Fast forward to today. In a Steve Martin voice in "the Jerk" My new deathgrip is here my new deathgrip is here!!!
I am sure that in a city environment this box would not have been usable after delivery.
OMG, an EBR…. REEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! OMG MUST DESTROY… REEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
It arrived early today but alas it's raining right now, but if it clears up for a little bit I may run over to the pit and have a little fun.
While unboxing this unit I was amazed at the heft as well as the fit and finish of this behemoth. Without going into a very long detailing of this product, I will say it appears to be quality made and holds my 8 lbs. 14 oz. "certain death from afar" AR snugly although it does not hold my bushmaster with the original drop in hand guard well at all but I can use it without tightening it too tight. I'm as giddy as a schoolgirl.
