Bipod

1 . A detachable leg arrangement for a bipod for a rifle, the detachable leg arrangement comprising:

a leg part, the leg part having an axial direction, an axially distal end and an axially proximal end, the proximal end comprising a first threaded engagement means; and

a leg part attachment means, the leg part attachment means comprising a second threaded engagement means,

the first engagement means being arranged to, in an engaged state of the leg part attachment means, threadedly engage with the second engagement means, allowing the leg part attachment means to move axially towards the leg part by moving the leg part attachment means into deeper engagement with the leg part,

wherein the leg part attachment means comprises a mushroom-shaped support part with an abutment surface arranged to face said proximal end of the leg part when the leg part attachment means is in said engaged state, and wherein the support part has a shape, in a cross-section perpendicularly to said axial direction when the leg part attachment means is in said engaged state, the shape being non-circular, and

wherein the detachable leg arrangement further comprises a leg fastening part, in turn comprising a space arranged to receive and accommodate the mushroom-shaped support part, the space having an abutment surface arranged to engage with the abutment surface of the mushroom-shaped support part so that said abutment surfaces engage with a mutual friction engagement as the leg part attachment means is pressed axially towards the leg part when in said engaged state.

2 . The detachable leg arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein said shape comprises two parallel, opposed side edge parts.

3 . The detachable leg arrangement according to claim 2 , wherein said shape comprises a part having a cam shape connecting said two side edge parts, the cam shape being complementary to a corresponding shape at a bottom end of a space of a leg fastening part comprised in the detachable leg arrangement, the space being arranged to receive and accommodate the mushroom-shaped support part.

4 . The detachable leg arrangement according to claim 2 , wherein said shape comprises a straight edge part connecting said two side edge parts.

5 . The detachable leg arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein said first engagement means comprises an axial hole with internal threads.

6 . The detachable leg arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein said second engagement means comprises an axial bolt with external threads.

7 . The detachable leg arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein said proximal end of said leg part comprises a plastic washer, forming a proximal end surface of the leg part.

8 . The detachable leg arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein said space has an end opening arranged to receive the leg part attachment means, when in said engaged state, in a direction which is perpendicular to said axial direction.

9 . The detachable leg arrangement according to claim 8 , wherein said space has an elongated opening, extending across said abutment surface from said end opening, arranged to accommodate an axial part of the leg part and/or the leg part attachment means.

10 . The detachable leg arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the leg fastening part further comprises a fastening means, arranged to releasably and/or movably fasten the leg fastening part to a bipod main part.

11 . The detachable leg arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the detachable leg arrangement further comprises an angular stopper in turn comprising teeth, wherein the detachable leg arrangement further comprises a stopper in turn comprising an axial pin, wherein the angular stopper and the stopper are mutually axially spring-loaded in relation to each other, pressing the axial pin and said teeth into engagement with each other so as to, when in said engagement, prevent the leg part to angularly pivot in relation to the leg part attachment means out of engagement between the leg part and the leg part attachment means.

12 . The detachable leg arrangement according to claim 11 , wherein each of said teeth comprises a sliding surface and a stopping surface.

13 . The detachable leg arrangement according to claim 11 , wherein the detachable leg arrangement further comprises an axial actuator, arranged to, when axially activated, pull said axial pin and said teeth apart, against a spring-loading force.

14 . A leg kit for a bipod for a rifle, the kit comprising a detachable leg arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the leg kit further comprises an additional leg part, the additional leg part having different properties in terms of length, length adjustability, flex, material and/or feet as compared to said leg part of the detachable leg arrangement.

15 . A method for operating a bipod comprising a detachable leg arrangement according to claim 1 , the method comprising the steps:

a) providing said detachable leg attachment arrangement;

b) introducing the mushroom-shaped support part into the space of the leg fastening part; and

c) bringing the leg part attachment means into a deepened screw engagement with the leg part, by screwing the leg part in relation to the leg fastening part, until said abutment surfaces engage.

16 . The method according to claim 15 , wherein step b comprises sliding the mushroom-shaped support part along the space, perpendicularly to the axial direction, to a bottom end of the space.

17 . The method according to claim 15 , wherein step c comprises turning the leg part less than a full revolution in relation to the leg part attachment means before said abutment surfaces engage.
