OMG... Pivot Shooting Bench Found

I bought one of the Caldwell BR Pivots with the plastic top before they were discontinued maybe 4yrs back.
Set it up in my foyer. Unbelievably lt turned over with me! l am fortunate to have a friend who owns an ORIGINAL 0regon model. Absolutely no comparison. l have seen a few claiming to be 0riginal 0regon models on GunBroken and ebay
CORRECTION: My daughter bought the DAMN thing:-(
Yours is an engineering marvel Rick
l gave the chink BR ''Flipper'' wannabe to my Son. Unbelievably, lt's flipped on him twice! He will not use it any longer. You guys with the ''USA BRS'' are truly blessed
 
Don’t give up on finding one of Rick’s originals. They are still out there. I picked up one off Facebook marketplace that was definitely abused but I brought it back to life by making a new top and some other magic. Plus it only cost me $200.

Edit: just saw a Caldwell BR Pivot wood top version (closest to Rick’s) on eBay if someone wants to go that route.

For those looking for a lie portable bench , I found this one at academy sports store. A display was all they had. I sit on it and was surprised how still and stable it felt. I can’t find it on academy’s website but it appears midway has the same one. Here’s mine, I screwed a board to make the top longer for my rear bag for the MPA 6BRA.
It folds up and I slide it in my truck

If I find a BR Pivot lite, what should I expect to pay for it?
I suppose that would depend on if it had the original ballistic nylon storage bag set (lifetime guarantee), and of course condition. With that said, consider the original BRP Lite with the bag set went for 1,200, so use that and add the fact that it's out of production now and has risen to the 'collectable' status.

In the end, it's the old adage, "it's worth what you're willing to pay". HTH
