Extras and spare/replacement parts for the Scorpion MK5 FT hook system.
Maestro Design’s Scorpion is a fully modular sytem and most parts can be replaced or parts added if needed. All the available parts are listed here. If you have an old design MK4 Scorpion then start searching spare parts here. Nevertheless, most of the the MK5 parts are compatible with the old system as follows:
Fully compatible with MK4:
Butt Pad Kit (adds two pads to the centre post)
Middle Extension Kit (adds 10-20-30 mm to the centre post)
Offset Plates (0-25mm or 10-50mm) to add an offset tot he whole hook
Does work with MK4, but looks a bit different or certain features are limited:
Wing Base, Standard
Wing Base, Extended (adds 25mm to the upper wing, recommended for Butt Pad Kit)
Extra Link 44mm
Wing, Standard
Wing, Extended HFT 2.25″
FolloWing Articulated Wing
T-Rail Limiters (with a 3-way limiter on both ends) 130mm or 150mm
if you want to use your hook on another rifle, don’t forget to order a base plate, too!
NOT compatible with MK4:
Long Hook, Stainless 152mm
Long Hook, Nylon 137 mm
Short Hook, Nylon 97 mm
HFT 2.25″ Hook, Nylon 57 mm
Some parts are suitable for both right and left handed hooks. but some parts have R/H and L/H versions, please double check that you have selected the appropriate one.
These parts can be bought separately, so you can buy a basic hook and then get the needed extras later, when you already know from practice what you need exactly.

Fully adjustable Field Target hook, with much more versatility than the usual Gemini clones. Everything can be adjusted even in the shooting position, without disassembling the hook. Modular system that can be upgraded later if needed. Massive construction, without any flex and slip, a lightweight and versatile alternative to the traditional metal hooks.
I added a lot of improvements to my professional FT hook design, creating the MK5 (2023) version that will replace the discontinued MK4 (2016-2022) version. Some parts are backwards compatible with the MK4 so the two systems can be combined if you don’t mind some visual differences but I’d suggest not to mix the two systems.
Features on the new MK5 design (see detailed listing with photos and dimensions at the bottom of the web page):
Engraved marks for all adjustments – now you can record and reproduce your settings any time
New 152mm stainless steel hook, 137mm and 97mm Nylon FT-hooks
HFT-compatible 2.25” (57mm) Nylon hook
Extended upper wing base option, for better integration with the Butt Pad Kit or to add half a link length to the upper wing
Slim hook holder links – don’t protrude that much as the old design
Rounded link elements – gives a smoother fit when the links are twisted
The same hamster (palm shelf, knee rest etc.) design that I use on my own rifle, with 5, 6 or 7 big indents (183 / 217 / 251mm overall length) on the sides for a sure grip in kneeling position or when carrying the rifle.
High quality laser sintered Nylon, lightweight and strong material. Comes with stainless steel bolts and nuts.
Available in two versions (hamster only, or hamster + adapter).

Extra wide bipod for FT rifles. This is not a sniper bipod, its only purpose is to give support between the lanes. FT rifles with their heavy and elevated scopes have a high centre of gravity and need a massive support. The 100mm long legs are wide apart (ball feet 220mm, boot-shaped feet 240mm) so it’s quite hard to knock over the rifle. Update: longer leg versions are available on backorder.
Clearing below the stock is about 80mm. Future versions with longer legs will be available
There are two main variations:
Thumb screw: Connects to all UIT accessory rails with a T-nut and a thumb screw
Quick release: A separate part connects to the stock permanently, either with T-nuts (for UIT accessory rails) or with built-in M5 nuts (for direct mounting on wooden stocks). The bipod slides onto this base part and clicks into its place.
Both variations can have these 4 leg types:
Black Plastic Ball: A simple 20mm black plastic ball with brass threaded insert
Stainless Steel Ball: Solid stainless steel 20mm bearing ball, looks nice shiny and lowers the centre of gravity
FT Caterpillar Boot: Big (25x50mm) curved surface with grooves, a solid support on all terrain, this is a real workhorse and I recommend this for FT
Self-Levelling Flat: 20x40mm flat feet that is self-levelling within ±10°, this is more delicate so it is recommended for mostly dry conditions

NEW DESIGN: The MK5 version of the well known FolloWing and SteadyWing systems.
These parts are actually the very same as the upper wings of the Scorpion MK5 FT Hook, and have a massive adapter that connects them to the original hook.
High quality laser sintered Nylon, polished and dyed ‘carbon black’ finish, stainless steel bolts and nuts.
Lightweight structure with a lot of adjustments
All adjustments are available even in shooting position
The links can be bent and twisted, too
Engraved marks for all adjustments – you can record and reproduce your settings any time
Rounded link elements – gives a smoother fit when the links are twisted
Fully re-designed system, with a massive cogs style connection instead of the weak link
True L/H version fully mirrored in every function, and now available in all variations

High quality scope rail for Feinwerkbau or Anschütz PCP rifles. Designed especially to work together with my FWB Anti-POI-Shift Kit, using these products together eliminates the POI-shifts on Feinwerkbau Alutec stocks. I’ve been using the same solution on my rifle, and the last time I zeroed my rifle was in 2012, need to tell anything more?!?
Made of aircraft grade aluminium alloy, black anodised with stainless steel bolts or silver anodised with black bolts. Elevation 35 mm, reproduces the same dovetail on the top as the rifle’s original dovetail. The in-built slope is 0.71% = 24.4 MOA so any simple mount ring will do without shimming.
Adjustable angle scope pointer (10°–90° to the scope tube, two positions). Fits 1″ / 30mm / 34mm / 36mm / 40mm scope tubes, and needs only 10 mm space on the tube. The top is 11.5 mm above the tube in vertical pin position..
For parallax wheels and click turrets.
With stainless steel screws and steel pin. If you need a longer or shaped pin, you can simply replace the original pin with any <1mm wire.
New updated ring design is available. The same function but a better looking ring, scope tube protection, bolt/nut secured against falling out.
The 30/34mm new design pointers are available in a ‘Target’ version i.e. with two pointers, one for the elevation turret and another on on the side for the windage turret.
These items are only spare parts for my trigger system (in black colour only), and allow you to try different surfaces and shapes to make sure, which one fits you the best in practice.
Ball trigger with a 5 and an 8 mm ball on the two ends. Ball triggers are fine because you’ll always have the same trigger weight, but it’s a severe problem that you can’t feel the direction of the pull. If you ask me, you should rather choose a round trigger instead from my standard blades, it’s much better. This Ball trigger is available in Offset version, too.
FlexiPoint Blade – Ball 5-8 mm
Small horizontal trigger with pyramids on both sides (fine and coarse). Similar to the ball but you can feel the direction of the pull.
FlexiPoint Blade – Pyramids
These blades have a big round surface that fits to the fingertip. There are four different surfaces, they look quite similar but each version gives a totally different feel on the trigger, so you can choose the one that fits to your shooting style the best.
‘Centre’ gives a d=2 mm sharp point in the middle, giving a very precise feedback of the actual pull weight, the edge gives only a small hint of the right pull direction.
‘Deep’ follows the shape of the fingertip, giving a comfortable and evenly distributed contact on the whole surface.
‘Edge’ is for those who are after the right pull direction, combined with a comfortable feeling of the deeper middle surface.
‘Flat’ feels like a flat surface, simple and precise.
FlexiPoint Blade – Round Centre
FlexiPoint Blade – Round Deep
FlexiPoint Blade – Round Edge
FlexiPoint Blade – Round Flat
Traditional straight and curved blades, 8mm wide, 20mm high surface with vertical grooves, the middle height is marked with a horizontal groove.
FlexiPoint Blade – Straight
FlexiPoint Blade – Curved
