Are you sitting comfortably?

[Target Popper]

For shooters who like to do it from their armchair, the IDLEBACK shooting chair which acclaims many good comments, so where can you get one?

 

[wuggis72]

Dunno I make do with my carp chair and an old seat box as a table
But I'd be interested to know too

 

[Gap-Shot]

I don't know either, but after many years of load development and shooting a variety of rifles of a bench, I find that nothing beats a drummer's throne when properly adjusted for height. Makes it easy to lean in to the most comfortable ergonomic position for the relaxed moment when you touch off the trigger. Not what you were specifically asking for, but just some food for thought.

Not 100% sure but I think they went out of business a quite a while back.
It was tied to southyorkshire shooting club when that went so did idleback

Jeeze! From the title, I thought you were going to tell me something horrifying!

Seems as if the Idleback chair shown by you SSH66 has not lived up to your expectations, would be pleased to know why?

 

[GridNorth]

I really like the MTM High Low table as you can adjust it from an almost prone position to standing.

Realise some of us are not in A1 condition, perhaps its time to hang up the guns Jay.T!

Hello, They went out of business long long ago, If you google you might find the company that made the Parts, I used mine in the Grain Dryer barn at night , But it was locked up in the tool shed on the farm

It's actually my mates chair, it's incredibly robust almost like it's been built to M.O.D.specs and virtually bomb proof but.......its very heavy ! If I shot from a hide I would have one or something similar but it doesn't fit my shooting needs or my mates.

 

[PestWeForget]

Chair and tripod, job done

 

[Sid60]

I had one around 2010 it was very heavy trying to lug it across the perm nearly finished me off

 

[Shooter1]

I had one when I when they first came out, got to be about 1/15 years ago now, seems like a good idea when I saw one at the Shooting Show all those years back, but the reality was it wasn't very good and I got rid of it after about a year. It was very heavy, very bulky and it wasn't at all comfortable, looked and felt like something that fell off the back of a military procurement truck.

 

[Target Popper]

Many thanks for the responses, the common criticism is about it is its weigh, perhaps the designer selected the wrong materials or over engineered the sizes, big shame.

 

[GridNorth]

IMO robust and lightweight are two words that are very difficult to say together.
