Product Description

This Harris Bipods SR-5 Quick-Detach Tactical Bi-Pod redefines field stability with its rapid-deployment design, engineered for precision shooting in tactical, hunting, and competition scenarios. The quick-detach (QD) mechanism enables tool-free installation/removal on Picatinny/Weaver rails in seconds, featuring a lever-action release that maintains zero retention through repeated deployments—ideal for operators who demand rapid setup in dynamic environments. Crafted from rugged 6061-T6 aircraft aluminum with a hard-anodized anti-corrosion finish, the bipod withstands heavy recoil from .308 Win to .338 Lapua Magnum, while the 6–9" height adjustment (in 0.5" increments) adapts to uneven terrain for stable prone, kneeling, or barricade positions. Designed for tactical versatility, the SR-5 bipod supports up to 30kg of load capacity, ensuring rock-solid stability for rifles, spotting scopes, or camera setups. Non-slip rubber feet enhance grip on soft ground, while the precision-machined leg locks prevent sagging during firing—backed by Harris’ legendary torque adjustment system for customizable tension. The foldable design (3.2" folded height, 15.6oz weight) minimizes pack space, with a built-in swivel mechanism that allows 15° lateral movement to compensate for uneven surfaces. Whether outfitting a sniper rifle for urban surveillance, a hunting rifle for mountain terrain, or a competition rig for precision matches, this bipod balances durability and accessibility. The QD mount eliminates the need for adapters on AR-15, bolt-action, and precision rifle platforms, while the hard-anodized finish reduces visual signature in tactical environments. Backed by Harris’ lifetime warranty and military-grade engineering, the SR-5 bipod delivers mission-critical stability—proven in thousands of field deployments where split-second accuracy and rugged reliability are non-negotiable. Includes mounting hardware and a protective storage pouch for worry-free transport.

The SR-5 Quick Detach Bi-Pod was designed, engineered. The SR-5 is 100% billet, made from the highest quality aircraft aluminum available. Its wide stance and ratcheted leg extension gives you the adjustability needed for precision aim and repeatability. You will feel the stability and security of your rifle as never felt before.

Our quick detach rail mount is simple, quick, and very secure; it attaches to a 1913 Picatinny rail and mounts in seconds without the need to use extra tools for tightening. Our ratcheted leg extension design allows the shooter to quickly adjust to 5 different heights without having to align each leg equally. The spring loaded leg extension retracts quickly with a one-button retraction lever. The retracted leg height of 6 inches extends to a full open position of 10 inches with 3 other positions in-between.

To engage or adjust leg position, simply pull the spring loaded leg downward to move each leg independently. Leg position can be deployed in a 90 degree, 45 degree position either forwards or backwards, locking securely into 5 positions through a 180 degree arc.

A bipod is an attachment, usually to a weapon, that helps support and steady it. The bipod provides significant stability along two axes of motion (side-to-side, and up-and-down).

Bipod comes from the Latin and Greek roots bi and pod, meaning "two" and "foot, or feet" respectively.

History
The first known use of bipods on firearms can be traced back to hand cannons of the 12th century which were cast iron barrels laid on top of short poles.
Bipods on rifles are first known to have been used in an improvised fashion during the mid-19th century, particularly by frontiers hunting buffalo and other wild animals. For example, the painting "The Long Shot" by Howard Terpning shows indigenous native American hunters shooting a rifle with an improvised bipod consisting of two crossed arrows.
During the 20th century, use of dedicated bipods increased, and was seen on different types of rifles during wars. For example the Lewis gun (1914) was fitted an adjustable of bipod.The technology became more advanced, with hinged legs and even extendable or retractable legs.
One of the first companies to manufacture commercially successful bipods was Harris Engineering, Inc founded in 1979 in Barlow, Kentucky by Gerald Harris, Margaret Harris, and Susan Wilkerson. Before starting the company, Gerald had applied for a patent on the bipod. In 2019, their successful Harris Bipods have been produced for nearly forty years, and have remained relatively unchanged.
Recent advances in manufacture of bipods include use of lightweight materials such as aluminium, carbon fiber and titanium, use of different quick attachment and detachament mechanisms (Picatinny, M-LOK, etc. or even magnets) and various types of feet materials such as rubber, metal, or a "basket" designed to stop the bipod from sinking into soft surfaces such as fine sand or deep snow (inspired by ski poles and snowshoes)
Mounting standards
There are several mounting standards for attaching a bipod to a rifle, of which some well known are swivel stud, Picatinny and Versa Pod spigot mount.
