Portable Rifle Shooting Rest by Monte Designs

Ingenious design.  I will definitely be considering one of these.

I want to be open to new ideas... but I just don't get it. Maybe someone can convince me as to why you would want this over a Bipod? I'm not trying to be a jerk or funny I just want to hear the reasoning behind it, since the price is in the ball park of a adjustable bipod.

@fantasticHorus

Well I for one would rather NOT have something attached to one gun that I might want to use with a few guns.

I also don't like attaching a bipod to any gun I have to carry since I only need the support occasionally

@GunWebsites Fair enough

@fantasticHorus My guess is this is for zeroing and use at a range. But I am guessing for the price of this you could get a bi-pod. Cool idea. I could just make one from wood tho if really wanted one. It does collapse down pretty good versus a rig.

Now that is one hell of a neat stand. One more thing I will be adding to my tool-box of shooting stuff. I think my wife is beginning to hate you guys, you keep reviewing stuff I end up buying.. LOL

We'll do a series of videos on how we are able to sneak things past the wives, LOL

Step #1 - get a safe! they hardly ever go in there

* X-Rest - Lightweight (15.3 ounces), places the stock of the rifle approximately 6.5 inches from the top of the bench. * X-Rest.LIGHT (15 ounces) - Places the stock of the rifle approximately 6.5 inches from the top of the bench or ground. * AR-Rest - Lightweight (18.5 ounces), places the stock of the rifle approximately 9.5 inches from the top of the bench. Especially handy for AR-15s and AK-47s with high capacity clips. * AR-Rest.LIGHT - Ultralight (12.1 ounces),

Why not just equip your AR with a bi-pod?

[montieroland]

The X-Rest and AR-Rests aren't intended to replace your bi-pod. The idea is to have a portable rest that can be used with a wide variety of weapons and then rapid disassembled and put into your range box or bag.

Haven't you already shown this before? Or was that another brand or something?

[bballw355]

i think it was another design or model

[GunWebsites]

@NorthlandShooter

Yup, that was their shorter first design, this is the newest 'taller' model for rifles with longer magazines (30 round)

looks heavy

[GunWebsites]

@BigSean1992

I will weigh them, but made from aluminum,,

I never even thought about weight, but I'll mention it in next review

[montieroland]

The AR-Rest weights 18.5 ounces. The AR-Rest.LIGHTWEIGHT weights 12.1 ounces.
