Never heard of it. I’ve been putting off adding a stud to my high dollar Zeiss. I might order this!Ditched Bino post’s and now running right stuff bino cinch. 100x better with less stuff to loose
I got a tip about it from another guy on another forum. It’s best money I’ve spent, I run sirui va-5 heads and they fit perfectly. No studs coming loose, no nuts And no adapter plates etc. also fits in marsupial enclosed with maven 11x45 w/ no issuesNever heard of it. I’ve been putting off adding a stud to my high dollar Zeiss.

I just bought a used set of Swarovski el range I’ll try to remember to let you know my impressions compared to sig 3000 bdxI’d like to upgrade to range finding binoculars, seems much easier than switching back and forth.
Havalon Piranta……..doesn’t hold an edge and is a safety issue waiting to happen in the field. Rather use my Outdoor edge swing blade or Argali and resharpen when necessary.
I ditched my Havalon after the blade snapped off inside the animal. Kinda sketchy trying to swap the broken blade and then find the other half.
That’s what intrigues me……I can leave it on the bino and it’ll still fit in my bino harness.I got a tip about it from another guy on another forum.

Good call. Why people pack sidearms in addition to rifles is beyond me.
What model of the outdoor edge knife you using?For those with the knives with interchangeable blades… I’ve used the same outdoor edge blade for 3 years. Multiple elk and whitetails. I bring the lansky quad sharpener and resharpen in the field. No reason to go through blades. The outdoor edge is the best I’ve owned so far, which isn’t saying much but if definitely gets it done. Best wishes
I use a Kifaru Gun Bearer set up on the rear of my Metcalf. If my pack is on, the rifle is of no use to me in an emergency. Some Eberlestock packs store a gun out of reach as well. If I was in grizzly country, I’d have a sidearm as well.
I’ve never used a gun bearer so I’m not commenting on it. I used to only carry my rifle in grizzly country, where I live, but after a few bear encounters and especially the Mark Uptain attack I now carry a handgun and my rifle.The beauty of the Gun Bearer is setting it up so you do have access to the rifle.
Otherwise you're pretty much saying "ok, I'm going to pack an 8 pound rifle, but I'm going to carry it in such a away that I can't get to it. I know! I'll carry 3 pound sidearm, that's the solution..." Why not just carry the rifle so you can get at it? But that's just like...my opinion, man.
