What does BIPOD mean in Scrabble?
noun
technical
A folding stand with two hinged legs used to support and steady a rifle, machine gun, or camera.
A bipod folds flat against the barrel of a weapon or the body of a camera when not needed and swings open into two legs to brace the equipment against the ground or a ledge. Snipers and machine gunners rely on a bipod to hold a heavy barrel steady and cut down on the shake that ruins accuracy at long range, and photographers use a lighter version for the same reason with a heavy telephoto lens. The name follows the same building pattern as tripod, simply swapping in the prefix for two.
