NEW DESIGN: The MK5 version of the well known FolloWing and SteadyWing systems.
These parts are actually the very same as the upper wings of the Scorpion MK5 FT Hook, and have a massive adapter that connects them to the original hook.
Adapters in stock:
Adapters available on backorder:
If you can’t wait a couple of weeks for the backorder, you may consider ordering the hook extension with the ‘Universal Converter’ and add an old style FolloWing adapter to the cart.
All versions come with appropriate stainless steel bolts and nuts and are ready to connect to your hook.
The forend you have always wanted:
If you are after something much bigger, made of metal and with traditional adjustments, check out our Rowan’s Forend + Gripster combination.
Fully adjustable Field Target hook, with much more versatility than the usual Gemini clones. Everything can be adjusted even in the shooting position, without disassembling the hook. Modular system that can be upgraded later if needed. Massive construction, without any flex and slip, a lightweight and versatile alternative to the traditional metal hooks.
For additional extras and spare parts please see Scorpion FT Hook Extras
Fitting the hook to different stocks: see Scorpion Base Plates

I added a lot of improvements to my professional FT hook design, creating the MK5 (2023) version that will replace the discontinued MK4 (2016-2022) version. Some parts are backwards compatible with the MK4 so the two systems can be combined if you don’t mind some visual differences but I’d suggest not to mix the two systems.
Features on the new MK5 design (see detailed listing with photos and dimensions at the bottom of the web page):
The new design Scorpion MK5 hooks are now in stock.
Extra wide bipod for FT rifles. This is not a sniper bipod, its only purpose is to give support between the lanes. FT rifles with their heavy and elevated scopes have a high centre of gravity and need a massive support. The 100mm long legs are wide apart (ball feet 220mm, boot-shaped feet 240mm) so it’s quite hard to knock over the rifle. Update: longer leg versions are available on backorder.
Clearing below the stock is about 80mm. Future versions with longer legs will be available
There are two main variations:
Both variations can have these 4 leg types:
Upper wing extension for FT butt-hooks – The last ones!
