Designed by a Marine Scout Sniper and OIF Veteran, the patent pending Hog Saddle is a rugged, lightweight (16 oz), mobile shooting platform that has been designed from the ground up to universally attach to tripod-based modular equipment, providing the shooter with a stable shooting position adaptable to any environment. These are in use now with military and LE shooters.
The Hog Saddle is built around four principles:
RUGGEDNESS – Specifically designed for the military sniper to be impact and corrosion resistant
PORTABILITY – 16 oz
VERSATILITY – Universal to any tripod platform utilizing 1/4-20 or 3/8-16 thread attachments
AMERICAN MADE – They didn’t sell out and go to Asia or India. They have kept their business in the USA
The Hog Saddle is CNC machined from a solid block of aluminum and then hard anodized and features a black oxide stainless steel bolt and guide rods. Adjustments are via a heavy-duty torque knob. Other components work in concert to mitigate noise and hold the weapon fast. There is a stainless steel noise dampening tension spring as well as 1/4 inch thick, recessed urethane pads specifically engineered to absorb rifle recoil and reduce muzzle jump.

My Airsoft M4 has a Tokyo Marui “M203” (bb’s not the real thing). My airsoft rifle is designed to go from mid range to sniper mode. To have something like this that would allow me to have a tripod rest on the go for tournament play is a godsend. And for actual firearms, I’m sure it’s value goes much more beyond that.
That and being made in America. It’s nice to see a product like that being made here. Pride in our work. It’s time we bring that back.
Just noticed this story. I know a couple of the guys up at the school house were testing these out and had nothing bad to say about them. Keep up the good work
