I know Vortex makes a line of tripods. Taking a look, they appear to be quality designs just like the rest of the Vortex lineup. Would it be possible to use a Vortex tripod as a weapon platform? I know there is another major brand that utilizes a "ball head" that an adapter is made for.
What I'm saying is, I'd like to buy a Vortex tripod that I could use a qd type mount that would allow me to attach my rifle to the tripod for steady position type shooting. |
| This is absolutely possible with any of our tripods. The larger ones might be less shaky, but this pairing is accomplished by purchasing a picatinny rail-to-tripod adapter. The quick release plate on the tripod would mount to the rail-to-tripod adapter. Then, you would need to have a picatinny rail on the bottom of the rifle. The adapter would then mount to this rail, allowing you to qucikly attach and detach the rifle to the tripod. |
