The ‘Alpha’ Gun rest is a great ‘thinking outside the box’ product that is a neat solution to an everyday problem, what to rest your gun on. The hard cordura wrapped polymer ‘A’-shaped panels have non-slip, rubberised panels in the U-notch on top and both feet below. The flat assembly is held closed with a Velcro fastener, which doubles up to lock the unfolded A-Frame into shape, latched below the front side. You are rewarded with a sturdy gun rest that will happily support any rifle with a sub-2-inch wide forend and assist your shooting or zeroing needs; because they fold flat and weigh just 330g for the Medium 5.5-inch (140mm) and 600g for the 8-inch (203mm) tall Large options, they can be carried anywhere easily without the full weight of a sandbag for any impromptu needs.
With 220×150 mm or 310×180 mm stance over the feet, you don’t need to worry about them falling sideways and the rubber feet give assured grip on your shooting bench for a solid, supported position. Just in case you want everything to hand, there is also a 3-slot elasticated ammo pouch on the nearside that is within easy reach of the non-shooting hand.
