A quick-detach (QD) mounting system designed by LaRue Tactical allows a Harris bipod to be rapidly attached and detached from a rifle’s forend. This system typically involves a lever-operated mechanism on the mount that clamps onto a corresponding QD socket attached to the rifle. This facilitates transitioning between shooting positions or transporting the firearm.
Rapid deployment and removal of a bipod are crucial for tactical flexibility and maneuverability. These mounts offer a significant advantage over traditional methods that require tools or more time-consuming manipulation. This speed is especially valuable in dynamic shooting environments where adapting to changing terrain or scenarios is paramount. The LaRue design is known for its robust construction and secure locking mechanism, ensuring stability and reliability under stress. The ability to quickly remove the bipod also reduces the overall profile of the rifle, making it easier to transport or store.
