Abstract: A portable arm support (10) for attaching to a user to support or steady firearms, cameras, binoculars, or the like. The portable arm support (10) includes a saddle (12) having fastening straps (20) which secure the saddle (12) to the forearm of the user, and a belt pocket (42) which is mounted to the belt of a user. A support tube (14) is pivotally secured to the saddle (12) and is telescopically extensible for adjusting an overall length of the support tube (14) to extend from the saddle (12) and into the belt pocket (42). The support tube (14) is telescopically adjustable to extend and then latch in an extended position with the lower end of the support tube (14) disposed within the cavity (60) of the belt pocket (42) to support the saddle (14) in fixed relation to the belt pocket (42).
Abstract: A multipod apparatus having either a bipod mode of use or pair-of-monopods mode of use comprising a head member having a pair of brackets having a central portion, a monopod-dedicated leg portion, and a support leg portion. The brackets are pivotally connected together with central portions being abutted in side-by-side relationship for limited relative rotation. A pair of monopod members have at their top ends a longitudinally-extending threaded stud which may be screwed in to threaded bores in the monopod-dedicated leg portions of the brackets to provide a bipod apparatus. Alternatively, the monopod members may be individually and selectively disconnectable from the head member to provide monopod apparatus.
