Mind the fingers here as you set height, or pull the catch and angle the legs up to shoot without the bipod – the choice is yours. With the legs in position, pull the spring-loaded catch forward, and the leg can then be angled down and locked into place. This means it loses nearly two-thirds of its length by the time it tightens in place so overall length isn’t excessive.įitting the two-part bipod is easy because both legs feature a screw clamp that bolts straight onto the accessory rails, fitted to the fore end. It’s a reflex design whereby it slides over the barrel, with the threaded connector a good few inches inside the tube. So, let’s get it assembled and then see how it shapes up on the range.īOLT-ONS FOR THE OPS SNIPER MK11 First up, the moderator, and this does feel a bit plasticky, yet it does the job and certainly looks the part. Big, bold dimensions, and those militaristic looks, give the impression of a heavy tool, yet at 8.5lbs all in (scope silencer and bipod), it remains highly manageable. OPS SNIPER MK11 PACKAGE DEAL It’s a package deal for either a novice getting into the sport, or a shooter on a budget, and when you consider there’s a bipod, 3-9 x 40 SMK scope, mounts, and silencer, all included in the RRP, currently around £269, it looks fair. Their operation is all about offering the consumer value for money, and on show here is a classic example – one of their own branded break-barrel, gas-ram models, the SMK SPEC OPS Sniper MKII. Sportsmarketing (SMK) have made quite a name for themselves over the last couple of decades, and with their proud boast of being the largest distributor of airguns in the UK, it’s hardly surprising. Mark Camoccio explores the SMK SPEC OPS Sniper MKII rifle package in this detailed gun test and review an air rifle, a scope, mounts and a moderator for less than £270!
