Finally got my ckye pod from mdt's factory seconds sale. Ordered november 26 and showed up january 8 and I live in canada one province over from them. My ckye pod looks exactly the same as the one in your video, including the big silver tension knob in the front so it appears I was sent a gen 2 which makes me pretty happy!
I managed to get the same score when I did that as well and man was I happy! Considering those are selling for over $1000 in Australia now and I picked up mine for about $450 posted. I really felt like I won the lotto there! It did take a couple of months to arrive but I wasn't bothered in the slightest, especially when I saw it was a Gen 2
have the gen 1. Expensive, but you get what you pay for. As much as i like it, i've only found 1 stage where we were forced to shoot on a side slope where I found it useful. Other than that I find myself using bags more than my bipod as its quicker to get setup. And when i do use a bipod, i find my self putting my harris on the rail more than the atlas cal or ckye just due to how quick it is to stow and deploy with some 550 cord tied to the legs. i may be in the minority with this mindset though
What would be an advantage of shorter PRS version vs standard single pull. I think standard can get pretty low with legs spread out. Am I missing something? Trying to decide between the two vestions
I haven’t seen that video in a while. However, while the Accu-Tac is one of the most stable bipods. They only get used on the bench for me anymore. They are too big , too heavy and too slow to deploy on the clock for me. I carry two bipods to every match. 1. Thunderbeast bipod 2. CKyE double pull
Why there are no Joints at the Spikes of this bypot? When i Change the Lenghts of it's feet, i also Change the angle of the Spikes. Do you know the Difference between an Advice and a comercial Pollution? ;) If it hadn't been around 570 BC, this crazy Greek who was sitting on the beach in Samos and drew a triangle in the sand with a stick, we wouldn't have this problem today!
Nice review X-Ring. That just made a couple other nice bipods more "affordable!" Seriously though it's always good to see innovation and quality and the MDT Ckye-pod looks state of the art.
It is a beautiful piece of machinery, elegant and functional. I guess we can call it the Rolls Royce of bipods, because it is as expensive as one. But that's okay. We were not all meant to drive a Rolls, or use a Ckye. But it's nice that it is there if we want one. Thanks Ray. Happy New Years to you and your family. In 2021 we also need to see some more of Mini-X and her progress on the range.
So are you saying that you buy the bipod and you then have to purchase an additional adapter to attach it to your arca Swiss or picatinny rail. Does it not come with one or the other
Purchased a “factory second” during the BF sale, never got it. MDT said it was back ordered till January, not sure how a factory second item can be back ordered, makes me wonder if they’re gonna pick one off the line and throw it around a bit or are they gonna send me a new one.
I order a factory second also on Bf. They said the same to me and I just got mine last week and guess what, it was a gen 2. It does not say gen 2 but it has all the upgrades that are talked about in the video. Did you get yours yet?
Yes I did! And also came with all the upgrades. Spoke to MDT rep and he said they’re actually not Gen2s just “reworked and updated” gen1s but the only things the ones we got dont have that the gen2s do is the new finish and tolerances.
$7.99 that's it??? Hell yeah I'll buy 2 pair in case I break one... LMAO That's a little hell a lot rich for my blood but I can see where you competition guys would need these things...
Thank You Sir! I like that the MDT Ckye-Pod Gen II was designed for single handed operation. 👍🇺🇸 #22aday

Just ordered mine! Low quantities in stock...
Damn, that's is extremely adaptive to many things when out in the field.
Hey ray. I just picked up a gen1 from a friend, can you change the pic mount to an Arca rail clamp?
Yes sir you can. Check out oldballsinc.com and see if they are in stock.
We have been curious about the new bipod from MDT and man is that thing slick! It’s gonna be time for an upgrade! Thanks X ring!
Great vid. I can’t decide between double and triple pull.
I got mine from the MDT factory seconds Holiday Sale and can’t wait to get out and shoot it. I can only see some slight finish defects near the legs.
just got mine too...dont see any flaws . cant wait to try out mine too . hopefully the weather cooperates !!
@@jfk19780 same, did you get a gen 2 also?
@@OneShot0311 yep gen 2 as well love it
There is absolutely no way I’m paying a grand for a bipod. That’s ridiculous.
I wouldn't pay $10 for it. I had the G1 and gave the POS away. It's the worst bipod I've ever used.
Thanks for the informative video my good friend!
i got bought the standard gen2 on black friday. never owned one. i guess ill find out!

Dang, I like that one!! Good deal!!👍👍
Looks Nice, Happy New Year! Carry on
Short Action Precision makes an excellent Sap Ckye -Pod Quick adjustment lever.
Nice! Thanks for the info! I’ll pin it .
That bipod pretty much does it all!
I always buy a year too early 😂
Bipods have gotten stupid expensive.
What would be an advantage of shorter PRS version vs standard single pull. I think standard can get pretty low with legs spread out. Am I missing something? Trying to decide between the two vestions
Thats a tough call. I think the PRS version is really all you need between the two. Sometimes all that width can be too wide.
Nice bipod ray but it’s out of my price point range I am working on a MPA chassis first I can’t spring for both
I thought last month your new favorite bipod was the Accu-tec bipod, has that changed?
I haven’t seen that video in a while. However, while the Accu-Tac is one of the most stable bipods. They only get used on the bench for me anymore. They are too big , too heavy and too slow to deploy on the clock for me.
I carry two bipods to every match.
1. Thunderbeast bipod
2. CKyE double pull

Hey Xring. Awsome review. I hear they were also stiffer then the gen1s can u confirm? Do they have much less slop?
Nice overview brother🤙
Thanks for the review. 👍
OMG I want that! Killer bipod! It’s jack of all trade i mean jack of all bipod 😃🤣😅🥰 Thanks for sharing!
Almost the perfect bipod. Great Review Raymundo (x-ring) 👊😎🇺🇸
got to be nice doing videos in office , even have a cameraguy :):)

So are you saying that you buy the bipod and you then have to purchase an additional adapter to attach it to your arca Swiss or picatinny rail. Does it not come with one or the other
The mount is included, unless you specifically choose the RRS which is more money.
nice
Post a link to your website. It is not pulling up in google.
They truly are great Bi Pods . Worth every penny . Great review Xring .
Do you know if the cant adjustment can be used on the gen 1?
That is so cool and sooo out of my price range.
So, you can’t be a serious competitor unless you use a Ckyepod? Please. I’ll do just fine with my Atlas.
Did not mean that at all. Some of the best still shoot a Harris.
Love mine got couple weeks ago
Thanks have a Happy New Year !! 🍻
That's a good looking bipod 👌

Almost too much going on, I’ll stick with the Atlas.

Sorry, not at the moment. I’ll try to get some run. Too many irons in the fire. 😄
