Scope stand

6BRA

Gold $$ Contributor
Why is nothing like this available in the states? This has to be rock solid.

 

How about this one?
 
You can't get them, out of stock. Been out of stock on 1inch for 6 months. plus no stabilizer.

Just found out that Dolphin is temporarily shut down due to some health issues.
Looks like some great ideas in this spotting scope stand.
 
If you don’t mind it being used or ugly, but functional. You might try eBay. I found this some years ago, military. Maybe 30 bucks if I recall. Works pretty well with a few tweaks.

I use a Gear Buggy. It’s fantastic. I got the optional brass drop rod(very handy), extended length handle and quick release head. Very nice product and made in the USA.

Gearbuggy is no longer in production. The best there was. I have converted my thought process on this. Manfrotto 055 with horizontal arm, and 410 geared head unit. Dual/multi purpose tripod with more offset than any other scope head can offer. Low profile as well.
 
I've used these tall stands suitable for across the course firing some and have always found them terribly shaky. The tall rod is only as good as the base on the ground and the scope hung out on its support all contributes to a really shaky setup, but what else is there. A solid one would be prohibitively expensive and heavy.
