The Leofoto GS-3 Rifle Clamp holds your firearm securely so you can be confident while making the most challenging shots. The 1-3" clamp's jaws are angled inward to exert maximum pressure, and the double-start thread design moves them together independently for perfect centering. Textured rubber pads add to the grip while preventing marring of your rifle's finish. The saddle clamp has a dovetail for an Arca-type clamp and a 3/8"-20 socket on its base for tripod mounting.
