         8 . A multi-legged-stand attachment as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the attachment body is formed as a linear body or as a non-linear body. 
     
     
         9 . A multi-legged-stand attachment as claimed in  claim 1  wherein the at least one leg connector is angled or substantially angled relative to the firearm support. 
     
     
         10 . A multi-legged-stand attachment as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the attachment body comprises first and second body portions moveably engaged with one another to permit adjustment of a length of the attachment body. 
     
     
         11 . A multi-legged-stand attachment as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the attachment body is foldable to allow it to remain attached to the multi-legged stand if the multi-legged stand is folded. 
     
     
         12 . A multi-legged-stand attachment as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the firearm support comprises a brace for resting a firearm on. 
     
     
         13 . A multi-legged-stand attachment as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the firearm support protrudes outwardly from the attachment body and/or is integrally formed as part of the attachment body or is releasably engageable with the attachment body. 
     
     
         14 . A multi-legged-stand attachment as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the firearm support is moveably engaged with the attachment body. 
     
     
         15 . A multi-legged-stand attachment as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the firearm support comprises a static portion, wherein the static portion further comprises a mounting body having a moveable portion engaged therewith. 
     
     
         16 . A multi-legged-stand attachment as claimed in  claim 15 , wherein the moveable portion comprises a firearm-rail connector attached thereon which may be releasably engageable from the moveable portion. 
     
     
         17 . A multi-legged-stand attachment as claimed in  claim 15 , wherein the movable portion is rotatable about an axis relative to the static portion of the firearm support. 
     
     
         18 . A multi-legged-stand attachment as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the at least one leg connector is rotatable. 
     
     
         19 . A multi-legged-stand attachment as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the at least one leg connector is releasably engageable from the attachment body. 
     
     
         20 . A method for reconfiguring a multi-legged stand to support a firearm, the method comprising the steps of:
 a. providing a multi-legged-stand attachment as claimed in  claim 1 ; and   b. engaging the at least one leg connector with at least one leg of the multi-legged stand so that the firearm support is positioned to support a firearm below a canopy of the multi-legged stand.
