Out of stock

Built to make you a better shooter in the backcountry. Precision rifle innovation—refined into a lightweight, bombproof platform for the mountains.

SITS DEAD STILL
Wide and flat bag rider, full-length ARCA, better trigger ergonomics, and solid bipod connection—built for stability and ideal balance. It just shoots better.

ULTRA LIGHT WITHOUT THE COMPROMISES
We initially built it to a crazy 25oz and hated how it shot. So we added the structure it needed—more stability, more durability, more features—and landed at 31.3 oz. Now it shoots like a dream and still floats like a butterfly.

FOLDS FOR EASY TRANSPORT
Packs down small. Doesn’t fight you in the trees.

RECOILS LIKE A KITTEN
The above-bore stock line makes recoil track straight back—reducing muzzle jump. Paired with the included Backstop buttpad, even magnums feel surprisingly tame. You'll feel an obvious difference.

BOMBPROOF
Built to not rattle loose in the woods. The patent-pending interlocking design has each section hammered tightly to each other—the screws just cinch it down.

Sorry, Dewalt.

Toolless Length-of-Pull and Cheek Height

Length-of-pull is adjustable natively from a very short 12" for youth and female shooters, all the way up to 14" for the basketball players. And if you want to go crazy, you can add a spacer kit (sold separately) to go up to 15.25".

Custom for your cartridge

Cartridge Mount Included

Let's be honest - we all just want it because it looks cool to have two cartridges on the side of your chassis, but it's handy when your mag's empty and the hogs are still running.

Oh so supple

Creature Comforts

We reviewed over 20 different foam suppliers to find the perfect foam piece that won't snag on your beard and will always stay put. It's the little things.

Backstop Recoil Pad

Custom Tuned Buttpad

Unlike other companies that send you the same buttpad whether you're shooting a 300 win mag or a 6.5 Creedmoor, we ask at checkout what cartridge you shoot, and send a custom pad tuned to the right squishiness level for your setup. The patented Backstop Recoil Pad is included.

FAQ

What is the Firepod Bipod?

Find out more about the Firepod Bipod on the product page.

Firepod is the new bipod from Backfire. It's the perfect height for general range use, is extremely fast to deploy with spring-loaded legs, locks up tight, and can take a beating.

The connection is picatinny, which is perfect for the Backlight Chassis. In fact, we only sell Firepod with a Backlight Chassis purchase--not as a separate product.

Frankly, we used to sell other companies' bipods and just kept getting too many returns, so we took matters into our own hands.

This is not a Backfire-made product. It's imported from China, but we wouldn't put our name on it if we weren't absolutely sold on this thing. We'd gladly put this bipod up against bipods in the $200+ range.

Do you have the inlet I need?

Probably! Check the schedule above to see when we'll launch each inlet.

Is this made in China?

No, but full disclosure, we often eat Chinese food while making your chassis. We find that a little orange chicken really helps us to do our best work.

We make everything but the screws, springs, and pins right in our tiny little shop in St George, Utah.

Can you ship to my country?

We can only ship Backlight to the USA currently.

How short of a barrel can I use?

The carbon fiber handguard is only 12", so realistically, any barrel length will be fine.

How thick of a barrel is compatible?

We're yet to find a barrel that doesn't fit into the chassis. We gave a very generous space for getting a barrel in without even removing the handguard.

Will I need to buy a magazine for it?

Yes. When you buy an aftermarket chassis, it doesn't include a magazine.

Do I need to buy bottom metal for it?

Nope! It's built right in.
