Kopfjäger Reaper Grip Upper Assembly Manual (KJ86001)
KOPFJÄGER REAPER GRIP UPPER ASSEMBLY USER MANUAL:
Thank you for choosing Kopfjäger, the world’s best, most versatile tripod-mounted gun rest system.
Every ounce of product knowledge you need to become a Kopfjäger Reaper Grip expert is contained in
these few pages—the rest is just trigger time. Welcome to our ranks.
REAPER GRIP UPPER ASSEMBLY:
The Reaper Grip Upper Assembly is designed as a replacement part to replace the top end of your
existing Reaper Grip, or as an accessory to quickly and easily transform your Reaper Rail into a Reaper
Grip. The Reaper Grip anchors both tapered and straight stocks and chassis with the grips curved fingers
and no-slip sleeves. The Reaper Grip maximizes proper shooting techniques outside of the supported
prone position.
MOUNTING:
Using a 5/32” Allen wrench, remove the four Allen-head mounting screws then fasten the direct
mount plate to the top of the saddle clamp. Align the screw holes on the Reaper Grip Upper Assembly
with the holes in the top of the saddle clamp. Insert the four mounting screws and tighten.
SECURING A STOCK OR CHASSIS IN THE GRIP:
To secure a stock or chassis in the Reaper Grip, set the stock down into the Grip just forward of your
magazine compartment (this prevents obstructions of rifle components you may need to access). Hold the rifle so the stock or chassis is resting completely at the base of the grip. Tighten the grip knob until the rifle is secure. The Grip pivots to accommodate tapered stocks and chassis. The tops of the grips also curve inward slightly, toward the interior of the grip. The curved grip is designed to pull and hold the stock or chassis down into the bottom of the grip.
WARNING:
Before handling the Reaper Grip, read and understand the contents of your tripod manual, as well as this Kopfjäger Reaper Grip manual.
Follow these safety precautions:
• Never leave a loaded firearm in the rest without maintaining positive physical control over the shooting system.
• Do not exceed your tripod’s maximum load capacity. (See your tripod manual.)
• Ensure the Reaper Grip is fastened tightly to your tripod.
• Ensure your firearm is gripped tightly and is secured at the bottom of the grip assembly.
• Always remove your firearm and accessories from the Reaper Grip during setup and before transporting.
MAINTENANCE:
To clean the stainless steel dowel pin, remove the dowel pin cover and loosen or remove the control
arm. Ensure the direct mount plate is perpendicular to the top of the hinge block so that the grip adjustment bolt is centered on the recessed channel (at the top of the hinge block) and pull the saddle clamp (away from the hinge block) off of the dowel pin. Wipe away debris from the dowel pin. Re-install the saddle clamp on the dowel pin. Re-install the dowel pin cover. Re-install the control arm.
• Do not use lubricants or grease on the stainless steel dowel pin.
• Use standard lubricant or grease on the control arm threads as necessary.
