Resting rifle?

[specks]

For shooting in a FFP I usually use my vest as a rest for my rifle, however that makes for a slow reload. Besides logs and a bipod what is a good rest for a rifle for shooting.

If you shoot righty, I found it comfortable to take your left arm, cross it infront of your mag, and grab your shoulder. Works well when behind cover, not really great for being in the open.

Hunting rests are pretty compact, try that.

If u shoot righty and are aiming down the sights crouch and put your left arm on your knee and hold the gun by the magazine and depending on your arm length and length of the clip its usually pretty comfy

when Im lying prone i like to ball up my fist, tilt it on its side, and sit my rifle on it.  wroks pretty good

your other hand is clenched in a fist to the buttstock of the rifle. Squeezing the fist will raise the rifle, loosing will lower the rifle, Using my hand is out of the question for a support. As for the hunting rest, how large are those? i carry a lot of gear as it is, and dong feel like carrying anything more unless its light and can fit in a box mag pouch

Holding the gun by the magazine itself can cause misfeeds not only in airsoft guns, but in real steel guns as well. I would not recommend this method. Specks: You use an AR-type rifle, correct? My preferred hold is on the magazine well itself, using your knee to balance.

yeah, i use an AR. I do this when kneeling, but when lying prone for a normal period of time (1 or more hours) i would rather use a rest than my hand.

For those suggesting the hand lying prone... Im a sniper, i sit for an hour or two (in the summer, to wet in the winter ) in a single spot, not a riflemen who only has to go prone for max 10 min or so. I might just pick up a bipod and carry it around, but i would rather not...

You want a rest that you don't have to carry around, and you don't want to buy a bi-pod?


Find a log.
