Quick Release Rifle Bearer

[Forkyfinder]

This is why I run short barrels

How long are your setups with can included?

Barrel with can is 25” at most

I have a SG pack. My buddy has a knockoff quick release identical to the SG one(not sure of brand) that he has on an Osprey pack. Works fine for him.

Do you know if the Stone Glacier release can be adapted to use on other packs ... notably a Mystery Ranch pack? I kinda like their concept.

Have a picture with barrel in front?

Nope but it wasn't an issue. I crawled under a fence to test it.

Was looking at those for running longer barreled rifles than what I want to in my kifaru gunbearer.

No. I generally do not use slings directly on my rifles for a host of reasons. When I do, they lace on.

The slik sling is a pack attachment very similar to the stone glacier except you don’t have to drop the pack to put the gun back in place. After being around the sg, Kifaru, and the slik sling, imo it’s the best solution out of all of them. Prior to using it I thought the kifaru was the bees knees

I don't. Look up their customer service number and give them ring. I've called a few times with questions, super helpful folks.

Have any pics? Interested to hear that feedback.

Im torn between the kifaru and slik sling for next season.

Kifaru

For those that use the Kifaru .... do you have a bipod mounted also or try and use the backpack for a rest?

I have had the Kifaru universal gun bearer for almost ten years. Used it on a variety of packs, SG, MR, Kuiu, etc. Works well and I haven’t found a need to change. I have found myself in many situations where I had to quickly take an off hand shot at close range while hiking. Worked as advertised and was able to successfully make those quick shots in a narrow window.

I use Kifaru. The only change is I didn't like the release in really cold weather. Hands get cold and always seemed like I needed an extra one. So...I bought a blaze orange dog collar with standard quick release buckle and use that in front instead.
