LEDEK Series Tripod

KJI has launched an all-new K-Series tripod lineup. Replacing the original K-700 and K-800 tripods, the new K-Series represents a complete modernization of KJI's shooting support platform, offering a broader, stronger and more adaptable family of tripods built for hunting, long-range shooting, competition, photography and professional field use.

The new K-Series includes five purpose-built tripod models: the K950 Carbon Fiber Tripod, K920 Carbon Fiber Tripod, K750 Carbon Fiber Tripod, K700 V2 Aluminum Tripod and K500 Aluminum Tripod. The model numbers serve as an indicator of tripod size within the lineup, with the K950 standing as the largest and most robust model, and the K500 serving as the most compact tripod option. Together, the lineup gives shooters a clear path from lightweight field support to heavy-duty professional platforms capable of handling rifles, optics, thermal devices, night vision, rangefinding systems and other precision shooting accessories.

Every K-Series tripod features KJI's new CNC-machined twist-lock system for smooth deployment and secure lockup. With carbon-fiber and precision-machined aluminum construction options, hard-anodized components, three independent leg angles, interchangeable rubber and spike feet, and broad height ranges for standing, kneeling, seated and prone shooting, the K-Series is built to provide a stable foundation across the full range of real-world shooting environments.

K950 Carbon Fiber Tripod

At the top of the lineup, the K950 Carbon Fiber Tripod delivers ultra-heavy-duty capability for shooters who need maximum strength without abandoning portability. With a 170-pound load capacity, 71.5-inch maximum height, 25.6-inch folded length, four-section carbon-fiber legs, and a 6.2-pound total weight, the K950 is built for professional-grade rifles, heavy optics, and demanding field applications.

K920 Carbon Fiber Tripod

The K920 Carbon Fiber Tripod offers the same 170-pound load capacity in a two-section carbon-fiber configuration designed for shooters who prioritize strength, simplicity and fast deployment. With a 66.4-inch maximum height and 5.8-pound weight, the K920 is well-suited for big-game hunters and long-range shooters running heavier equipment in the field.

K750 Carbon Fiber Tripod

For shooters who want full-size performance in a lighter, more compact package, the K750 Carbon Fiber Tripod provides a 150-pound load capacity at just 3.1 pounds. With a 56.3-inch maximum height, 3.5-inch minimum height and 20.1-inch folded length, the K750 is designed for mobile hunters and backcountry shooters who need stability without unnecessary bulk.

K700 V2 Aluminum Tripod

The K700 V2 Aluminum Tripod brings the K-Series modernization to one of KJI's most recognizable tripod names. Unlike the legacy K-700, the new K700 V2 is a relaunched aluminum model with CNC-machined components, hard-anodized finishes, twist-lock legs, a 150-pound load capacity, 56.3-inch maximum height, 3.5-inch minimum height, and a compact 20.1-inch folded length. At 3.9 pounds, it gives hunters, tactical shooters and plinkers a rugged, adaptable platform at an accessible price point.

K500 Aluminum Tripod

Rounding out the tripod lineup, the K500 Aluminum Tripod offers compact stability for shooters who need a reliable platform without the extra weight of larger systems. With an 80-pound load capacity, 53.9-inch maximum height, 3-inch minimum height, 19.1-inch folded length, and 3.1-pound weight, the K500 is ideal for hunters who want a streamlined tripod that still integrates with KJI's shooting support systems.

K100 Aluminum Monopod

For shooters who need an even more compact support option, KJI also offers the K100 Aluminum Monopod. Built from hard-anodized aluminum with precision CNC-machined components, the K100 delivers lightweight field stability in a one-leg platform designed for hunters, marksmen, glassing, spotting, camera support and situations where a full tripod is not required. With five telescopic leg sections, a 70-inch maximum height, twist-lock adjustments, interchangeable rubber and spike feet and a 15.43-pound load capacity, the K100 extends the KJI support family into a monopod format.

Full Reaper System Compatibility

All K-Series tripods are compatible with KJI's Reaper Grip, Reaper Rail and ball head systems. Dual accessory mounts with 1/4-20 TPI and 3/8-16 TPI threads provide additional flexibility for supporting a wide range of field equipment.
