A firearm sling includes a shooting rest. The shooting rest may include a bifurcated cavity filled with deformable media. The bifurcated cavity defines a trough along at least a portion of a length of the shooting rest. The firearm sling may be coupled to a firearm to facilitate carrying the firearm over a shoulder or across a torso, the shooting rest providing padding for comfort in carrying the firearm as well as a support for the firearm to improve marksmanship.

A shooting rest with a shoulder rest supports a rear end of a firearm at the shoulder rest and a front end of the firearm at a firearm support. The shoulder rest and firearm support are mounted, respectfully, at a first and second ends of the shooting rest's frame. The shoulder rest comprises a recess for receiving the firearm and receives and encapsulates one or more mounts in a body thereof. A pad for engaging a user's shoulder extends outward opposite the recess.

A shooting rest for different weapons provides ends that are offset from the central portion of the rest to provide a space that accommodates a portion of the weapon being used with the rest. The shooting rest can be used with one or two supports that engage the weapon being used with the rest. Each support can be rotationally adjusted about a vertical axis and tilted about a horizontal axis. Each support can be tilted inwardly to a storage position for storage and transport of the rest. When in use, the entire rest can be tilted about its main support. A support assembly includes an adjustable arm that carries the shooting rest from the top of a monopod that is anchored to allow repositionable use without interference with the hunter's legs.

A rifle support comprises a leash with a loop end, an opposed free end, and an intermediate portion. The leash has a width and a plurality of spaced apart stoppers sized larger than this width. A hook comprises a suspension panel portion and a support portion offset from the suspension panel portion. The support portion includes an upward facing support surface when the suspension portion is vertical. The suspension panel has an elongated side edge and an upper end and a slot entering at the side edge. The slot width is greater that the leash but smaller than the stopper so as to admit the leash while denying passage of the stopper. The leash may be girded around a tree with its intermediate portion passing through the loop and the free end depending downward, with the hook slot receiving the leash and stopped a stopper.

A selectively adjustable and lockable utility mount is used to mount a device to a stable structure. The utility mount includes a hydraulic lock that applies the locking force that maintains the locked condition of the utility mount. Mounting brackets for utility mounts have spaced-apart mount elements that engage a surface of a stable structure. Some configurations of mounting bracket include mount elements that are movable between stored conditions and deployed conditions. The stored conditions reduce the size of the device to make it more convenient to pack. A climbing stick uses the storable mount elements.

An adjustable shooting steady rest configured to clamp to a wide variety of structures. The steady rest includes a chassis with one or more clamps opposing a clamping bracket. The user places the chassis over a structure such as a safety bar or windowsill. The user then tightens the clamp(s) to lock the chassis in place. The chassis includes a rod receiver. A rod is adjustably attached to the rod receiver. A firearm support is provided on the upper portion of the rod.

A weapon rest assembly for stabilizing a weapon while shooting includes a post, which is engaged to and extends from a first end of a beam. The post comprises a plurality of nestable segments so that the post is selectively length adjustable. A rest is engaged to the post distal from the beam. A first attachment module is selectively engageable to the beam and is mountable to a tree stand so that the beam is mounted to the tree stand. A weapon held by a shooter positioned in the tree stand can be positioned on the rest to stabilize the weapon. A second attachment module is selectively engageable to the beam and is mountable to the ground so that the beam is mounted to the ground. A weapon held by a shooter positioned on the ground can be positioned on the rest to stabilize the weapon.
