A bipod for a rifle or the like has a base which is attachable to the sling swivel stud on the forearm of the rifle, a pair of adjustable telescoping legs pivotally attached to the base and which can be pivoted between a support position and a folded position generally parallel to the rifle barrel, and a pair of strut mechanisms each for selectably bracing a leg with respect to the base, each strut mechanism having resilient means for absorbing recoil of the rifle.
