UK-based Spartan Precision Equipment is a newcomer to the Sniper Comp vendor tent. They have been inroads into the US with their lightweight Javelin Bipod.
They use a combination of Carbon Fiber legs, 7075 aluminum fittings and a rare earth magnet attachment system which quickly connects the bipod to the rifle. They have a variety of fittings for different rifles.
Spartan Precision also offers a lightweight tripod called the ‘Sentinel’ Rifle & Optics Support System.
Their magnetic attachment system for the bipod is definitely unique, and five ounces seems pretty light weight.
When I first saw the photos, however, I thought that they were using a push button QD swivel as the mount…an idea that I have had for a while.
I bought one of these back in Sept. I used it in a match environment and wasn’t thoroughly impressed with its performance. It has a tendency to want to fold on you. The lock mechanism isn’t extremely positive so it can fold on you. It’s really intended for hunting and it’s great for that. The build quality is superb and the weight is out of the this world light. The price is steep but it’s definitely a quality product.
