The NCT-PIGlite-CF4 is the next evolution of the tried-and-true PIGlite-CF4. Now proudly built in the USA and upgraded from the ground up. Designed for the backpacker, outdoorsman, and shooter who refuses to compromise between weight and durability, the NCT-PIGlite-CF4 carries forward everything that made the original a field favorite while addressing the wear points every tripod eventually faces. Compatible with all ball heads and featuring a semi-permanent interlocking gear mount for the TH-1.4 ball head, this tripod is built to become a permanent fixture in your kit. A tripod that locks up tight and maintains a clear sight picture, hunt after hunt.

From glassing distant hillsides to running a stable platform in tight, confined spaces, the NCT-PIGlite-CF4 was engineered to outlast and outperform anything else in its class.

NCT-PIGlite-CF4 Features:

-American made, TAA compliant, manufactured in Kansas City, USA
-A half pound lighter than the original PIGlite-CF4
-Load rating nearly tripled to 70 lbs
-CNC machined aluminum leg lock levers for precise, durable adjustment
-Monolithic stop caps replace the internal leg stop shims found on standard tripods, drastically improving leg service life
-Four-position independent leg splay (0°, 25°, 45°, 85°) lock closed at 0° to prevent inadvertent splay during transport
-Interlocking gear mount creates a semi-permanent connection with the TH-1.4 ball head that won't rotate loose in the field
-Hard-anodized aluminum hardware for corrosion and wear resistance
-Includes urethane feet (installed) and 304 stainless steel spiked feet
-Three built-in swivel studs for sling attachment, plus an optional load-bearing hook position

Avaliable now. More NCT line products coming soon. 🇺🇸⚡️⚡️

Happy 250th Birthday Marines, and happy Veterans Day to all our brothers and sisters who instilled the courage and fortitude to toe the line.
I can't recall a time in service where politics or race was ever an issue. There were squabbles and head-butting for sure, but the second a 9 line or QRF was called on the radio everyone just went to work. Nothing else mattered. It was a beautiful thing. 🇺🇸⚡️⚡️
If you're a Vet make sure to give a few buddies a ring. It's OK to tell another man you love him as long as your socks are on. Haha! S/F
