The MDT M-LOK Baker Wings were designed and tested by Keith Baker, an MDT Prostaff shooter and multi-national level PRS match winner. These wings are designed to provide the shooter with more stability when shooting off of an unstable position and utilizing a front bag, as well as providing more control surfaces for the shooter's support hand. In short, these wings will help you, a.) control the tracking of the recoil on your rifle, b.) maintain better control on the front of your rifle and c.) provide a wide and flat contact surface on a bag!
The MDT Baker Wings are machined from premium aluminum alloy, providing exceptional strength and durability for this critical support component. Rather than polymers or plastics, the aluminum construction ensures the Wings can withstand incidental bumps and abuse from harsh field environments without deformation.
The underside features an integrated non-slip grippy surface that maximizes traction when resting on a rear bag or soft shooting mat. This enhances the Wings' larger footprint advantage compared to narrow traditional toe-rests.
An often overlooked but key benefit of the Baker Wing design is its ambidextrous symmetry. The dual-wing configuration eliminates the torque and uneven pressures that can occur with offset sidebar monopods. This balanced construction promotes consistent hand positioning and tension-free stock weldment for both right and left-handed shooters.
While most shooters mount the Wings towards the front of the M-LOK rails, their reversible slotted design allows perfect clearing around the inlet areas of many chassis systems. This adaptability ensures proper fitment and capitalization of the Wings' enhanced surface contact area.
A lesser known fact is that the Baker Wings can provide a worthwhile accuracy enhancement not just in improvised positions, but also when shooting from a bench or other supported rests. Their advanced recoil management helps the rifle track straight back without disrupting sight reacquisition.
Overall, the aluminum MDT Baker Wings apply clever design principles and top-materials to deliver stability, consistency and versatility expected of premier match accessories. For competitive and recreational precision shooters alike, they are simply a fantastic addition.
