Hi Friends,
My Su-16C bi-pod is a flimsy affair.
Always intended to come up with a solution that stabilized/strengthened it.
SHOULD be rigid and fixed when deployed.
The only success I ever had with it was by holding the left leg while I fired.
Not ideal.
Well, tonight it occurred to me that a simple, cheap fix might be right in my desk drawer.
So cheap it's practically free.
We ALL have them .
WHAT is it ???
A RUBBER BAND !!!
You'll note that I have a flash-suppressor that offers two nice grooves to capture it.
I think it's an A-2.
Any way, the band as shown makes the Bi-Pod completely rigid.
I HAVE NOT fired her with the rubber band in place so I cannot swear that it won't melt but, if it did...
I could imagine a long zip-tie would work as well.
As long as you carried snips or dikes to release it after a shooting session.
*If you would like to support my continuing research you are welcome to send me money...or liquor.
