Abstract
A bipod assembly includes a first yoke configured to be attached to a firearm. A second yoke is pivotably attached to the first yoke. Right and left legs are pivotably connected to the second yoke and movable between an open position and a closed position. The bipod assembly is movable between a stowed and locked position, a stowed and unlocked position, a deployed and unlocked position, and a deployed and locked position. In a locked position, part of each leg engages the first yoke to maintain the leg's open or closed position as well as the leg's deployed or stowed position. The bipod assembly enables one-hand deployment from a stowed state.
