BALS MK-1 Sniper Bean Bag


by Joe
BALS MK-1 Sniper Bean Bag - I still smile every time I use this thing- so simple, so effective. The idea first came from a long range class back several years ago where the instructor was talking about a personal experience where leaving a piece of kit behind on a real-world mission in Iraq almost compromised his team. Every other bean bag on the market is a separate piece of kit that needs to be retrieved when needed, and policed when finished... mount it on the stock and voila! Keep your eyes peeled for new products from B.A.L.S. in the near future! View More SKD Staff Picks

  • 18 lb Cast Iron Rifle Rest with micro-adjustable feet? Check.
  • 2.5 lb Corn-filled Sock for a Rear Stock Bag? Check.
  • Humping either of these items with you into the field on a real world mission?
    NOT SO CHECK.
In the precision rifle world, there are a lot of Rifle Rests that are full of promises, but at the end of the day, you have to ask yourself which ones will be with you to help you make the critical shot in the field. Now you can always count on one benchrest item being with you all the time- the Sniper Bean Bag from BALS.

The MK-1 from Ballistic Adjustment Leveling Systems, LLC. (BALS) is the answer to precision marksmen who want the functionality of a Rifle Rest, without the inconvenience and hassle of having to carry one and store it everywhere they go. The Patent Pending design allows for simple installation onto a wide variety of stocks, including most factory Bolt Gun stocks, and stocks from Manners, Bell & Carlson, HS Precision and McMillan. The MK-1 will also fit on standard M16 A1 and A2 stocks, as well as the Accuracy International AICS and Magpul PRS.

The Rifle Bean Bag on the MK-1 is cleverly mounted up with a stock harness that stores it conveniently up against the rearmost part of the stock, and can be silently released for immediate usage. When deployed, the rifle bean bag can lay horizontally or vertically via a slider, to maximize the range of adjustment. Whether in storage or operational mode, the rifle bean bag does not interfere with the shooter's cheek weld, and it does not interfere with off-hand shooting.

You can buy a good rifle bean bag, but whether you are on a dog hunt or using your rifle professionally, it can't help you if you forget to bring it or can't set it up in time. We like to say that a Rifle Rest on the gun is worth ten on the bench.

The MK-1 Sniper Bean Bag is proudly made in the USA with the finest materials and manufacturing available. The bean bags are filled with lightweight waterproof poly-fill, and constructed of 1000 Denier Cordura. The MK-1 Sniper Bean Bag will provide years of valuable service and finally give your rifle the one thing it really needs... BALS.

good solid product, March 11, 2013
Reviewer: Ben from Monroe, WA United States  
Craftsmanship is great, doesn't work so well with a Magpul PRS without a little ingenuity. otherwise though a great product. True to the creed "Hard Core No BS Tactical Gear.." does what it does and stays where you put it.

The fine convenient bag January 30, 2013
Reviewer: VIOLATOR from RUSSIA  
I very much like SKD Tactical production. I use many subjects. The fine convenient bag, competent form, easy viscous filler well holds a form and holds a rifle butt. Two situation (high and low). Reliable clamp on a butt. I and my friends (in Russia), we use a bag for several rifles. I recommend for your choice.

Bean Bag too Small January 28, 2013
Reviewer: Price from IL United States  
I am a dedicated sniper on a full time SWaT team and this thing was highly touted and severely under performed.  The bag was smaller than my fist and only half full of stuffing.   Didn't work at all.  Needed to be about 3 times bigger bag and fully stuffed.  The attachment system is spot on, but the bag, which is the most important part is useless.  I guess there is no system out there that provides attachment and a correct size bag.

first accessory i purchased after my rifle. January 13, 2013
Reviewer: Eric Thomas from Leander, TX United States  
One of the first things I did after purchasing my rifle was to order this piece. I'm generally happy with it but as noted in other reviews the bag could be a little bigger to give you greater adjustment. I still does what it was designed to do and I do not regret the purchase.
