  • Publication number: 20090038199
    Abstract: A firearm handgrip with a collapsible and concealable bipod positioned within the handgrip. The bipod enables tracking of the horizontal angle of the firearm. Specifically, the bipod is quickly deployable by pressing a button that activates a highly reliable release mechanism. Upon bipod deployment, the shooter is free to place the bipod on any surface, including uneven surfaces wherein the bipod legs are positioned on different heights so that the bipod maintains stability. The bipod enables panning (horizontal rotation), tilting (up-down) and canting (right-left) of the firearm. Additionally, after panning the firearm and subsequently lifting the bipod from the surface it lies on, the bipod's legs automatically realign to a plane perpendicular to the firearm, thus tracking and adjusting to the new horizontal angle of the firearm.
