The Hog Saddle

The coolest product I saw this year at Shot Show was one that I almost did not see. Its easy to miss things at Shot Show simply because of how many products are being shown, but this product, The Hog Saddle by Shadow Tech LLC caught my eye. As I walked down the line at an invite only shooting event held the day before Shot Show formally opened, it was easy to miss this product, especially given the prototype Barrett M240 (we wrote about it here as the MG240LW) going through belt after belt of 7.62mm a few feet away, but there, off to my right stood a tripod with a GAPrecision rifle atop it. I actually did walk past, but did a double take and stepped back to examine just how this GAP rifle was positioned. What I saw was a product that was elegant in its simplicity, rugged and effective. It was a most beautifully machined vise designed to hold a rifle and called the Hog Saddle. The Hog Saddle is the kind of product that you see and instantly realize the usefulness and application. It’s the kind of product that makes you slap your forehead and say “I should have thought of this”. Its the kind of product that you realize meets a need you never knew you had or if you did realize you did have the need, this product instantly makes your life simpler and better.

The Hog Saddle is in essence, a 16 oz. CNC machined vise for your rifle with an industry standard mount that sits atop a commercial camera tripod. The singular purpose of The Hog Saddle is to provide a stable, solid, universal thread attachment for your rifle on a modular lightweight, adjustable and adaptable mount (tripod). It is crafted out of a single block of aluminum, hard anodized to provide a base for camouflage and is resistant to corrosion. The vise itself been machined to provide a contact patch of urethane pads to protect your rifle, reduce recoil and muzzle rise and preserve accuracy.

Flexibility is important and why the Hog Saddle has neoprene bonded into the CNC machined surface. Obviously, not all rifles have the same dimensions, so the Hog Saddle can adapt to different style rifles and still securely hold them in place. Here is an AR style rifle with a modular rail mounted securely in the Hog Saddle. Other rifles that are currently being used in the field with the Hog Saddle are AR designs including M16, M4, Mk-12 and .308 designs like the SR-25. M14 rifles, M110, Remington 700 designs including the M24 and M40 series as well as Accuracy International and McMillan TAC-50s.
