A bipod was a two-legged stand that was attached to the barrel of a rifle or a heavy weapon. It steadied the weapon to facilitate aiming and firing. Normally, it was used while prone or adjacent to waist-high or chest-high cover. A bipod could also be used as a mount for heavy weapons such as heavy repeating blasters.
