Maybe a little less in your face in expressing your opinions.
The $59.00 price makes it worth a shot in my book - if you want that type of bipod.
The main disadvantage that I see is that there is no swiveling with that type of bipod. This makes it pretty useless for anything except shooting off level surfaces.

I agree, I know there are some of us on here that have actually been there and done that. That’s why I said most, not all. It just seems more times than not on here if it is not brand name, high dollar items, than it is junk. When in reality a lot of the low priced items are more than enough for what we are actually using them for. Punching paper or ringing steel!!
I agree people will have different opinions, but most on here seem to have the opinion that utg or other cheap brands are inferior and just junk. Let’s be honest, for what most on here are actually using items for including my self now, utg and some other less expensive brands are more than suffficient just less expensive.
The major problem I have is, it’s not the different opinions on this site, it’s when someone on here does asks about a cheaper brand like utg, they are usually meet with.... its junk, Chinese crap, won’t find that junk on my rifle.... you get my point. That’s not really opinions, more brand bashing and giving someone a hard time because he won’t or in a lot cases can’t afford to go buy a higher priced item for punching paper when it’s really not needed.
Some of us would rather spend less on items that do not need to be high priced to work and use those savings for ammo or more firearms and items. I target shoot at least 2-3 times a week, that shit gets expensive! So YES I will and do buy some cheaper brand products, it saves me a lot of money. But with that being said, I do have a few of way over priced items that were absolutely over priced but I love those said items!!
So in short, UTG bi-pods are GTG!

Forget the UTG bipod. If you are looking for a bipod to mount to a M-LOK handguard, look no further than the MAGPUL bipod. One version is made for the M-LOK handguards.
They run right around $105-$110 depending on where you buy them.

Leapers/UTG has earned the reputation they have. For a long time they did produce nothing but junk. My nephew, who is an adult now, grew up immersed in the airsoft world. When he was old enough to buy a real gun and started researching, he was shocked that people put Leapers/UTG on real guns because even in the airsoft world it was considered junk. They have a "Pro" line now, that one member here has reported using one of their rails and likes it, so maybe they have begun producing functional, well made gear. I can take one look at the UTG bipod and know it won't work for me. With no ability to swivel, I have no use for it.
I've said it before on here, the people who buy cheap gear, and by cheap I don't mean inexpensive, are always the most emotionally invested in their purchases and take it personal when someone says their brand is anything less that stellar.
