Bi-pod suggestions for my Handi.
« on: August 25, 2012, 03:05:15 PM »
Thinking about getting a little bipod now. Saw some little 6-7" ones on cheaperthandirt for $25.00. My question is, how do you mount them?

See linked thread.  Harris bipods are very nice but expensive.  Some of the UTG/Lepers bipods are decent.

Why be difficult, when with a little extra effort you can be impossible?

Best bi-pod suggestion I have is not to mount one. Use 'cross sticks' or a mono shooting/hiking stick if you must. The best is to become a proficient rifleman and improvise from that, then you are good for any situation.

I prefer the rear view mirror of my truck instead of a bipod, it also speeds up the get a way time too ;D

Well, I bought one.

Just a little guy. Which is what I wanted. Now from what I understand reading about these. This bipod comes with a swivel stud extension. This simply slides over my stock swivel stud that comes on the Black Sythetic Handi's from the factory? Then I mount the bipod on the new and longer swivel studd with a single cotter and pin setup? That being said, I assume it is fairly easy to take off and put back on when I feel like using it?
