UTG Recon 360 Bi-Pod 7″-9″

The UTG Recon 360 Bi-Pod 7″-9″ provides adjustable rifle support with 360° panning and 15° of tilt in four directions. In addition, five leg-extension positions help adjust the support height. Furthermore, the supplied swivel-stud adapter provides a Picatinny mounting interface for compatible rifles. Consequently, the design combines directional adjustment with a compact front-support unit.

Specifically, this model carries the manufacturer reference TL-BP01-B. However, the stated 7–9-inch size is a nominal centre-height description, while the detailed measurements vary with leg angle. By comparison, the centre height at 45° is 5.23–7 inches, whereas at 90° it is 6.35–8.8 inches. Additionally, the manufacturer lists a stowed centre height of 1.8 inches (45 mm). Therefore, use the measurement for the intended leg position when checking clearance.

Recon 360 Bi-Pod Panning and Tilt Control

The mounting mechanism supports 360° panning and 15° of tilt forward, rearward, left and right. As a result, you can change the support angle without lifting the entire bipod. Meanwhile, the central throw lever controls resistance during panning and tilting. Furthermore, the lever is user-serviceable, so you can reposition it as the mechanism wears in.

Recon 360 Bi-Pod Leg Adjustment

Each leg offers five extension positions with a manual locking system. In addition, the legs fold and lock at 0°, 45° or 90°. Moreover, the legs open to a 50° angle when deployed. However, rubberised foot-pad grip depends on the supporting surface. For this reason, check that both feet rest securely before use.

Construction and Mounting Compatibility

In terms of construction, UTG specifies 6061-T6 aluminium, polymer and steel. Additionally, the bipod has a matte black anodised finish. The low-profile Picatinny assembly uses a knurled thumb nut and reinforced steel cross bolt. Furthermore, the package includes one swivel-stud adapter and one user manual.

Before installation, confirm that the supplied adapter suits the rifle’s mounting arrangement. Also, ensure the firearm is unloaded before fitting or adjusting the bipod. For further technical details, consult the official Leapers product page. Alternatively, explore related equipment in our shooting accessories category. Finally, the manufacturer specifies 15 in-lb of torque for the Picatinny sideplate; therefore, follow the supplied instructions when fitting or adjusting the mount.

Key Features and Specifications

Overall, this bipod combines adjustable leg positioning with panning and tilt control. Consequently, it offers several ways to position the rifle’s front support while retaining a compact folded profile.
