Atlas bipod rattle

[Hunter609]

I have a atlas bt-10 the legs are very noisy. Has anyone else had an issue, and were you able to quiet them down?

Never heard anyone have noise issues with one. Where is the noise coming from, between the 2 legs that slide together? Can you upload a picture of it. Hopefully it's a legit atlas and not a knock off.

It’s the lower legs rattling on the upper. I got it from the longrangehunting store a few years back.

Dont know the store, but theres alot if fakes out there. Do you know if it's a V8 or higher bt10?

 

[Nuke Man]

Do they rattle extended or retracted?

 

[PredatorSlayer]

I have the cal tall version and have never heard a rattle - sounds like a knock off?

 

[Hunter609]

V8 model, they rattle in all positions. According to the atlas website everything match theirs and not the knockoffs.

Here it is

Yup that's a real atlas for sure. I would contact Kasey at B&T Industries. There is a bushing in there so it may be worn. I have no doubt they will get you squared away

Haven't heard of a noise issue since the V7 series. Keep me posted if you would.

Thanks I will call Monday.

They had me send it in. They received it Friday, I haven’t heard anything yet.

bipod is on its way back. They replaced orings in the legs and said it took away 85-90% of the noise.
