AirForce Bipod for Condor, Talon Reviews

Easy to install

Over barrel

Make it out of steel.

I sat it down and the leg snapped off right below the joint. It looks good but not built to last for more than a show stand meaning open it and dont use it

I have a Texan SS in .308. The Bi-pod is made by Airforce and is the only one that I could find that has a 11 mm attachment rather than a Weaver. To buy another bi-pod, I would have had to purchase a 11 mm to Weaver converter (The converter by Airforce would have been another $40.) It is sturdy and seems to work OK.

The legs are not attached to each other so to set the bi-pod, one has to pull a button and set each leg separately - it is not fast. It is also possible to set the legs in different plains - maybe a good thing and maybe not. The tilt does not seem to lock down as tight as I would wish. But, so far, all I have used it for is punching paper - it has worked well for that. The bi-pod is heavy and seems to throw the balance on my rifle forward. I would like to have some type of balance weights to take some of the weight off my left arm when I am shooting in a stand up position.

The adjustable legs are tall enough for most of my purposes. To adjust each individual leg, one has to punch a level and count the clicks. But, if speed is a concern, then you might want to consider another bi-pod option. Additionally, if you are on the move and you have the bi-pod legs extended, it forces the balance forward even more. The rubber feet are stable - which is mostly good, but if you want to move the rifle a little, the feet kind of resist sliding.

Natively attaches to AirForce rifles via their dovetail rail so no dovetail-to-pictinny adapter is required.

Cant (ability to tilt rifle left or right) is controlled by a large lever in front of the bipod. The lever can't turn a full 360 degress because the lever hits the barrel/moderator. It appears the lever can be taken off and re-mounted at a different angle so that contact with the barrel is avoided, however, the lever is large, unattractive and fits loosely to the bipod. Further, the bolt that holds the lever to the bipod is weak/undersized and I broke the lever off the unit.

I'm used to +$300 Atlas bipods so maybe I'm spoiled but this unit feels cheap (although it's relatively expensive). I actually broke the lever that controls cant while trying to tighten the lever so that my rifle would stay vertical. Not impressed whatsoever. I'll stick with Atlas. That said, I have a friend that has a Chinese Atlas knockoff from AliExpress and while not a real Atlas, it's 10x better than this unit and 1/3 the cost.

Sturdy and well built.

NO INSTALLATION/ADJUSTMENT INSTRUCTIONS. This bipod is a proprietary piece of equipment for their rifles. Nice bipod, but needs instructions to properly install and use it.

It holds my heavy airforce condor up

Different way to tighten/loosen the tilt.

Not to bad in my opinion, OTHER then the shoddy way you can adjust the tilt for the gun. The ability to tighten/loosen the tilt is fine, but the way the bolt is held in isn't good engineering at all.. I've had the bipod for less then a month and somehow have made the ability to change tilt tightness worthless. It's sad that it crapped the bed the very day I got my moderator for my condor as well.. let me tell you, it's a pain to have long range shooting with a 17" moderator on the front of a 24" barrel with no bipod

(First, I've been using this about 8 years now.) Folding legs forward when not in use works well. Pretty light and adds little weight. The $60+ price is ok for what it is and seem a fair deal.

The thing I most dislike is the rubber pads on the legs can get pulled off too easily. I haven't lost one yet, but when I do it will be a PIA to replace. I have been meaning to JB Weld (epoxy) them on the leg bottoms but that's a boring task.

This bipod will serve you well until you enter the upper realm of airgun shooting. Once there, you'd never use this one and will insist on ones (like Atlas) beginning above $200 an soaring up from there..

It's a bipod.

The inside bolt with double thread is barely soldered to the inside but that tightens the bolt. What happens is the threads comes loose from turning the lever to tighten the legs. The nut never tightens the double thread bolt because it doesnt have anything anchoring it right enough, it just spins free, leaving you with loose left/right cantering. I put Gorilla glue on the threads and re-screwed it into the nut, hopefully it will hold enough to allow me to tighten the legs enough so that the gun wont spin freely in the grip of the bipod. If not, I'll be getting a another bipod.

Buy the UTG or other bipods, the Airforce one is put together quite shoddy.

Easy attachment!

Legs seem loose but it is what it is!

Over priced!

nothing

thicker pod legs

BUY A "UTG"BIPOD FOR THIS RIFLE

Well made, sturdy build. Easy to use and set up.

Nothing

A must have for long range shooting.

I like the amount of side to side cant this bipod has. I like that it can be mounted from the top or bottom of the Texan.

I have not used this very much yet. Maybe 400 or so rounds through the Texan with this bipod. My initial thoughts were that it does not seem as heavy duty as I would prefer. However I have not had a problem with it yet. I have always used a Harris bipod on everything else I have owned and I admit that I may have a bias towards them. I like things that are built like a tank.

I have had no problems with this bipod. It is just different than what I am accustomed to. It does not seem me like it is heavy duty, but so far it is holding up fine on a Texan 45. I am not in love with this bipod at this time. But then again, I didn't love my third ex wife when we first met either. Then after a while I grew to love her. But now I don't love her again because she was lazy and had a bad temper and a terrible drinking problem and I suspect she was probably unfaithful the entire time. This bipod may possibly turn out to be more dependable than my third ex wife was in comparison, but that's not saying much about the bipod if I'm being honest.

Nice spring action

Nothing

This is the new replacement for the original AF bi-pod. I prefer it's stability & precise adjustment (settings) over the original bi-pod. For me, the price is acceptable, compared to other bi-pods on the market ~ though they may be cheaper, require additional expensive rail adapters to fit-up on my Condor & Talons.

It would be nice if some-one would exchange the original bi-pods (trade-in value) for this superior new version!

If your into the use of a bi-pod, for AF Talon & Condors, this one seems to be the ticket!

Not having to adjust the legs when shooting off a pad in prone - just swivel the gun in the mount -- Perfect! I have this on a Texan which is probably heavier than Condor or Talon with no problem. Love the detents in the leg adjustments for height as well as front to rear. Great clean fit.

No adapters needed, everything works together and costs about the same as cobbling together another bipod plus the expense of an adapter.

Fit my Condor SS perfectly

nothing

Great bipod and not to bulky and heavy like many others.

Nothing

Get one and have fun in the prone position.

Time of arrival. Very prompt. Very easy to install on my AirForce Condor.

More expensive than other bipods of equal or better quality on the markets.

Quite lightweight, bordering on too lightweight and poorly made. When extended to full length, one of the legs is so wobbly that it cants off at an angle making it unstable. If you never extend the legs I suppose it would work just fine.

Fits 11 mm dove tail. Nice piece.

This bipod is light duty it is best to go go with a heavier duty unit.I got caldwell bipods for my talon/condor-- more sturdy.

The nut that tightens the bipod to the rail can strip out if you reef on it to much , soft material.

Very light weight stable bipod with 11 mm rail clamp for Airforce rifles

Considering the price the bipod should have the quick adjust legs instead of cheap friction lock legs

If you don't want to put bulky adapters on your Airforce rifle this is your only bipod choise that I know of.
