The attachment mechanism of claim 1 wherein the cam structure includes a first cam structure spaced apart from a second cam structure. 5. The attachment mechanism of claim 4 wherein each of the first and second cam structures includes a generally flat portion that contacts the second side of the interface member to at least partially secure the interface member against the firearm when the latching arm is in a closed position with reference to the interface member. 6. The attachment mechanism of claim 4 wherein the latching subassembly further comprises a bushing coupled to the attachment portion, wherein the bushing at least partially extends through each of the first and second cam structures. 7. The attachment mechanism of claim 6 wherein the bushing is rotatably coupled to the shaft and rotates on the shaft, and wherein the latching arm is pivotally coupled to the bushing and the cam structure rotates on the bushing. 8. An attachment mechanism for attaching a firearm to a bipod, comprising: an interface member having an aperture;an attachment portion configured to releasably engage a stud extending from the firearm through the aperture;a shaft having a first end portion coupled to the attachment portion and a second end portion opposite the first end portion, the shaft having a longitudinal axis;a bushing coupled to the second end portion of the shaft; anda latching arm coupled to the bushing, wherein the latching arm moves about a latching axis between open and closed positions, wherein the latching axis is generally perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the shaft, and wherein in the closed position the latching arm at least partially secures the interface member against the firearm wherein the latching arm includes a bushing opening that receives the bushing, and wherein the center of the bushing opening is eccentric with reference to the latching axis. 9. An attachment mechanism for attaching a firearm to a bipod, comprising: an interface member having an aperture;an attachment portion configured to releasably engage a stud extending from the firearm through the aperture;a shaft having a first end portion coupled to the attachment portion and a second end portion opposite the first end portion, the shaft having a longitudinal axis;a bushing coupled to the second end portion of the shaft; anda latching arm coupled to the bushing, wherein the latching arm moves about a latching axis between open and closed positions, wherein the latching axis is generally perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the shaft, and wherein in the closed position the latching arm at least partially secures the interface member against the firearm, wherein the latching arm includes a cam structure that rotates about the bushing, and wherein the cam structure includes a generally planar section that contacts the second surface of the interface member when the latching arm is in the closed position. 10. An attachment mechanism for attaching a firearm to a bipod, comprising: an interface member having an aperture;an attachment portion configured to releasably engage a stud extending from the firearm through the aperture;a shaft having a first end portion coupled to the attachment portion and a second end portion opposite the first end portion, the shaft having a longitudinal axis;a bushing coupled to the second end portion of the shaft; anda latching arm coupled to the bushing, wherein the latching arm moves about a latching axis between open and closed positions, wherein the latching axis is generally perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the shaft, and wherein in the closed position the latching arm at least partially secures the interface member against the firearm wherein the latching arm includes a first cam portion spaced apart from a second cam portion, and wherein the bushing extends laterally between the first cam portion and the second cam portion. 11. The attachment assembly of claim 10 wherein the shaft extends at least partially through the bushing in between the first cam portion and the second cam portion. 12. An attachment mechanism for attaching a firearm to a bipod, comprising: an interface member having an aperture;an attachment portion configured to releasably engage a stud extending from the firearm through the aperture;a shaft having a first end portion coupled to the attachment portion and a second end portion opposite the first end portion, the shaft having a longitudinal axis;a bushing coupled to the second end portion of the shaft wherein the bushing includes a threaded opening that receives a threaded portion of the shaft; anda latching arm coupled to the bushing, wherein the latching arm moves about a latching axis between open and closed positions, wherein the latching axis is generally perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the shaft, and wherein in the closed position the latching arm at least partially secures the interface member against the firearm. 13. An attachment mechanism for attaching a firearm to a bipod, comprising: an interface member having an aperture;an attachment portion configured to releasably engage a stud extending from the firearm through the aperture;a shaft having a first end portion coupled to the attachment portion and a second end portion opposite the first end portion, the shaft having a longitudinal axis;a bushing coupled to the second end portion of the shaft wherein the bushing rotates on the shaft about the longitudinal axis, and the latching arm rotates on the bushing about the latching axis; anda latching arm coupled to the bushing, wherein the latching arm moves about a latching axis between open and closed positions, wherein the latching axis is generally perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the shaft, and wherein in the closed position the latching arm at least partially secures the interface member against the firearm. 14. An attachment assembly for securing a firearm to a support structure, the attachment assembly comprising: an interface member configured to contact the firearm, the interface member having an aperture configured to receive a connector extending from the firearm; anda latching subassembly including—an attachment portion configured to releasably engage the connector;a shaft extending from the attachment portion; anda latching arm coupled to the shaft, wherein the latching arm includes a handle at a first end portion and first and second spaced apart forks at a second end portion, and wherein the shaft extends at least partially between the first and second forks wherein the latching arm pivots about a latching axis that is generally perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the shaft. 15.
