I’ve been getting requests from benchrest shooters to add a monopod to their Scorpion hook. There are monopods on the market that can be attached onto the side of the stock, or simple ones that go below the hook, but I aimed a seamless integration of the advantages of both systems, in the usual Maestro Design quality and look, and here is the final result:
This is a special T-rail with an integrated monopod, full of features and available variations. No tinkering with the stock, no offset support issues, long and precise adjustment. The monopod is natively built into the T-rail, adding only +10mm to the rifle length (compared to a standard Scorpion T-rail). The support is exactly in the centre line. Compatible with both the old MK4 and the new MK5 Scorpion systems.
The rail has the MK5 system’s new Limiter Bolt on the top, this bolt can sink into the rail to allow quick detaching of the hook, or can stand out in two positions, to limit the hook’s movement. Rail length for the hook is 134mm, total length 150mm.
The foot of the monopod can be built in four variations:
– Top part: a tall slender hyperboloid for quick adjustments, or a wide and lower cylindric shape for more accurate adjustments.
– Foot: a domed button or a massive and spectacular show-off ball joint, both have a rough rubber surface at the bottom.
Easy to reach, angled locking screw that can be mounted on either side, giving equal comfort for right and left handed shooters. I offer two thumb screw shapes, a small hyperboloid and a sphere.
Massive laser sintered Nylon, polished black, rough surface rubber foot, with stainless steel screws. Now it is available separately, or can be added to a new Scorpion MK5 hook on a discounted price.
