Substitute of Tripod for shooting Air Rifle

Hi All,

During my visit to Allahabad I just happened to find a substitute of tripod for the purpose of shooting AR. It is basically a jack for lifting "Toto" (E-Auto). However due to its structure and light weight I felt was also suitable for the purpose of shooting as well.
I got it for Rs 450 only, which I feel it is worth of as it would save a lot of time and energy for building one.
Hopefully other forum members might be benefited by this small piece of information

Regards
dh

Yup, that's a good choice too but how much does it hold the recoil?

It's ok for plinking but a Front shooting Rest with windage top is best

Dear Gunner dh: Yes , it won't tolerate recoil, its not a complete shooting rest or a tripod, but , we can use a s a substitute, have to hold the the bottom of the stick with your foot , with little pressure, the height can be adjusted, easy to portable any where ,here the pics of my dads walking stick, cost around Rs. 900/-only

Thanks for sharing the pic. I had previously thought about it as substitute however due light alloy being used I refrained to get one.
