Harris 1A2 Bipods
Harris 1A2 Fixed Bipods
Harris 1A2 Bipods are designed for shooters who want the proven reliability of a Harris bipod in a simple, fixed-base design. Unlike Harris S Series bipods, which allow the rifle to cant from side to side, 1A2 models provide a rigid shooting platform that remains locked in position. This makes them an excellent choice for bench shooting, target practice, varmint hunting, and any application where the shooting surface is already relatively level.
Built in the USA from durable steel and aluminum, Harris 1A2 bipods have earned a reputation for dependable performance under demanding field conditions. Their rugged construction, spring-loaded legs, and straightforward operation have made them a favorite among hunters, recreational shooters, and law enforcement professionals for decades.
Why Choose a Harris 1A2 Bipod?
The primary advantage of the 1A2 series is its simplicity. Without a swivel mechanism, these bipods offer a solid, stable shooting platform with fewer moving parts. Many shooters appreciate the rigid feel when shooting from a bench, shooting mat, or other level surface where rifle cant is not a concern.
Harris 1A2 bipods are available in several height ranges to accommodate different shooting positions, from low-profile benchrest models for prone shooting to taller versions designed for sitting positions or shooting over taller vegetation. Many models are also available with either smooth telescoping legs or notched legs for faster, repeatable height adjustments.
Who Should Choose a 1A2 Bipod?
A Harris 1A2 bipod is an excellent choice for:
- Benchrest shooters
- Target shooters
- Varmint hunters
- Shooters who primarily use level firing positions
- Anyone who prefers a rigid, non-swiveling bipod
If you regularly shoot on uneven terrain or need to level your rifle on hillsides or rough ground, a Harris S Series Swivel Bipod may be a better choice.
Choosing the Right Height
Selecting the correct bipod height depends on how you intend to use your rifle.
- 6–9 inch models are the most popular choice for bench shooting and prone positions.
- 9–13 inch models provide additional clearance for taller grass and uneven terrain.
- 13.5 inch and taller models are designed for sitting positions or shooting over brush and vegetation.
Quick Recommendations
- 1A2-BR (6–9") – Best all-around choice for benchrest and traditional prone shooting.
- 1A2-BRM (6–9" Notched) – The most popular fixed-base model for precision shooting thanks to its fast, repeatable leg adjustments.
- 1A2-L (9–13") – Better suited for prone shooting where additional ground clearance is needed.
- 1A2-LM (9–13" Notched) – Ideal for hunters and precision shooters who frequently adjust bipod height in the field.
- 1A2-H (13.5–23") – Designed for shooters who often fire over taller vegetation or from higher positions.
- 1A2-25 (12–25") – A versatile high-rise model for seated shooting and hunting in brush.
- 1A2-25C (13.5–27") – The tallest fixed-base Harris bipod, offering maximum clearance for shooting over heavy vegetation, snow, or other obstacles.
