My Tricer RP bipod just arrived! Can’t wait to throw it on the Seekins PH3!

When I had Drew on the podcast he said something about setting a for sure deadline but hoping to deliver earlier.

Yep early preorders are shipping, myself and a few others have received them. I’ll be testing this weekend
 
I was hoping to have mine by today but shipping was delayed and it won't be here till tuesday. Would have been nice to have it for my bear hunt
 
Mine came in yesterday- seems pretty solid. I don’t think the pan is as big an issue as some are making it to be. I’ll get some rounds downrange here in a bit, but so far, I’m pretty stoked about it.
 
Did anyone have an issue installing the swivel stud to picatinny adapter? I am having a hard time getting it tight to the buttstock before I install the picatinny adapter and threaded bolt piece.

Update
I emailed Tricer and they responded in about 12 hours. Here is there response:

“I do have the product team working on a solution for this as we speak as we have a few customers who have experienced this same thing. I am so very sorry about that. I don't have an answer right now, but I should by the end of the week and will keep you updated as soon as I hear back.”
 
Mine arrive today. Straight out of the box, this thing feels legit. Super solid just playing around with it here in my office. Won't be testing it this weekend though....

Unfortunately, I too am having issues with the swivel stud adapter like @IDHunt above. I'm trying to attach mine to a Browning BAR and it seems like there is a compatibility issue with the swivel stud design that Browning uses to attach the fore end. Its not a standard swivel stud like other rifles with exclusively wood stocks. There is an additional nut type piece that gets installed between the swivel stud and fore end that prevents the "PA" from tightening against the wood. I don't foresee a solution to this problem in the near future unless others have a suggestion on alternative swivel sling stud pic adapters.
 
Update

Email from Tricer

“Unfortunately, we are realizing it may not be working perfectly with some rifles, and you will need to use a traditional pic rail. Drew, our CEO, mentioned he would give you a call next week if you'd like to chat with him.”
 
I hit send on an email to Tricer as well just before seeing you had responded. Just so happens I mentioned I had an idea that might solve this problem (at least for me) if Drew was interested. Got a chance to talk to him very briefly at WHP and he seems like the kind of guy that will stand behind his stuff and make things right if there are problems.
 
I’ve got a couple days in the field with mine now.

Hit my steel range this morning for some real shooting.

Engaged targets from 540 to 770 sitting and prone.

Overall so far I like it.

Versatile, stable, and light, right at 15 oz with the long legs and arca mount by my scale.

I do wish I could lock out the 360 degree swivel while maintaining cant function. It’s not the end of the world, but that 360 feature can be a pain the ass deploying or folding up of its not 100% locked down.

And I just don’t see any need for that feature on a bipod. It’s easier to move the rifle than my body if I have to move that much to get on a target.
 
I forgot I ordered one before reading this post.
 
I too have the problem of not being able to tighten down the first piece of the stud adapter. This is on a Seekins stock. This seems to be a very consistent problem.
