Abstract: A bipod for a firearm, or other equipment utilizing a multiple-leg pod, is provided that features easy, snap-apart and snap-together legs and snap-on and snap-off connection of the bipod to a ball or knob on the firearm or other equipment. The legs are preferably received in bores/holes in the bipod body and, during snapping in and out, the legs move past protrusions that restrict movement of the legs between different lobes of the bores/holes. The ball joint formed between the ball/knob and the main body of the bipod serves as preferably the only connection that moves during use by the shooter. As the shooter swivels, tilts, or pans the gun, the ball/knob attached to the firearm moves in the top socket of the main body of the bipod, with the legs being stationary relative to the main body.

Abstract: The present invention is an adjustable-length stock for a shoulder fired weapon, which preferably includes an extendible shoulder piece installed on a shortened gun stock. The extendible shoulder piece preferably includes a butt plate for placement against the shoulder of a user, and a telescoping connection between the butt plate and the shortened gun stock. The connection may have at least one support rod and preferably two support rods telescopically sliding within their respective support tubes. After adjustment, the stock is locked at the selected length, thereby fixedly holding a desired length. The preferred two connections between the butt plate and the gun stock are vertically-distanced as much as possible, in order to stabilize the butt plate. The system preferably also uses a bipod for forward support of the weapon while being used by the adolescent. This system may be used to teach adolescents how to fire such a weapon.
