That last UTG one looks good. People scoff at UTG, but they have tons of variations of accessories at good price points. Their gear may be ugly, overbuilt and clunky sometimes, but lots of it is rugged. I have a few types of their bipods and they hold up well.Light and tough. Rugged Ridge Outdoor. Although $300 or more.

Somewhat light, though polymer. Around $100. Magpul.

Works and tough and a hell of a value. Not really light but fairly easy on and off. Also what I recommend the most these days. UTG. Around $40-50

These are my favorite. Rugged as heck and they weigh like 10oz.The m16 bipod goes onto the barrel directly and would have a big impact on barrel harmonics.
The magpul one would be lightweight. I liked using a harris 6"-9" bipod as it was small and pretty light for what it was. And wasn't too expensive.
OK, but don't buy their sights.That last UTG one looks good. People scoff at UTG, but they have tons of variations of accessories at good price points. Their gear may be ugly, overbuilt and clunky sometimes, but lots of it is rugged. I have a few types of their bipods and they hold up well.
I do agree not "all" of their parts are up to snuff, hahaThese are my favorite. Rugged as heck and they weigh like 10oz.

Anybody tried one of these? NeoPod® Ultralight Hunting Bipod – Steinert Sensing Systems I know nothing about them.
The "CQB red/green" didn't hold up well. You would expect a sight named after the best Canadian sitcom ever to be better than that, right?I do agree not "all" of their parts are up to snuff, haha
Bad sights though eh? Care to share (not to take away from the OP) which sights went bust so I can avoid them for future builds? Their chopped A2 style sight has worked for me and held up. Perhaps it was a folding set?
Ill keep clear of their glass opticsThe "CQB red/green" didn't hold up well. You would expect a sight named after the best Canadian sitcom ever to be better than that, right?
I put another UTG sight (the one that takes a 2032 battery) on a Saiga-12 just to watch it die. It made it through about 5 slugs.
The flip-up magnifier doesn't co-witness and causes artifacts and stuff.
The tactical flashlight with remote switch didn't last long on a 223. First the remote switch went out, then the end cap button.
So now I have Harris bipods, Leuphold and Trijicon scopes, Aimpoint red-dots, Streamlight lights and less money.
