Looking for an affordable bi pod

[black3018]

I just found out that my dad got me a late birthday present. Its a NcStar but I figure I can use the **** out of the bipods til I can afford a Harris. Free is free lol. I think he got the 7-11 inch ones but I'm not completley sure. Will post pics when the bipods arrive

cheap bipod suggestions

My birthday is the 23 which is coming up this week and I was thinking about buying a bipod with some of the bday money I will be getting. Anyone know what size bipod will work best with 25 round mags? And that are cheap?

anybody have a size height recommendation for shooting with 25 round mags?

 

[tgmorris99]

A 6-9 adjustable will just clear the 25 round magazine so if all you'll be doing is bench shooting that should work as it provides a couple of degrees of upward mobility as well. If you need more than that you'll need the taller bipod.

Check the other recent thread on the subject as I recall there's more information about heights there as well.

Question - I didn't read the whole thread but- what would you use as a good bipod on a rifle with a pic rail etc. - but 5.56 .. Say I am building a SPR (Special Purpose Rifle) , Mk 12 etc. or even a SEAL Recon Rifle (Recce rifle) - and I want to add a good bipod (I mean NcStar thru Harris could be the options) ... I am not seeing too many rail-connected options, they seem to be sling stud. But who/how has a sling stud on a quad rail system, right?

Anyway, thx for he info.

The Ncstar I got came with 3 different adaptors. I have mine on the rail system and it appears really sturdy. Even did a few infantry movement drills with it to check. Im liking it but the model I have has the manual leg locks which I am not to happy with

There are several options for sling stud to rail adaptors made by Larue, GG&G and others for the Harris style bipod. EMA Tactical offers a nice side mounted design which allows me to keep my vfg towards the end of the rail. The Vltor ModPod is another example.

I got one from NC Star and am very happy with it.

your front sight is on backwards...

Haven't you heard? It's more aerodynamic that way, and makes the bullets go faster.

My 2 cents...

Harris makes awesome bipods (I have one), but another option, if you haven't seen one, is the "Grip-Pod". It's a forward grip with a spring loaded bipod inside. I like mine a lot. It's a little bigger than the average forward grip, but great for larger hands. Best part is you have a bipod with you all the time without taking up more space on the gun. Here is a link to an eBay listing for the military model GPS-02 (best price I have found, just bought my 2nd one here)....

took my rifle to the range. tested out the blackdog 50 round drum and it worked awesome. Also set up my bipod and zeroed my sights in. at 50 yds was hitting a group the size of a quarter. the only down side is that one of the bipod legs got stuck but i was able to get back to normal. I love being able to put almost 500 rounds down range at the fraction of firing .223/.556. I will post some pics of my rifle when Im not working lots of overtime

Also you may want to purchase a 10 round shorty magazine, it helps if you are trying to zero your optics. The 25 round sticks out so far your bipod becomes useless... I have that $20 dollar one from Amazon and it's great until I tried to zero with the 25 mag. Hope it helps.

 

[black3018]

I got my red dot zeroed fine with out the 10 round shorty. All i did was extend the bipod and pulled up one of the stools the range had. I got the 7" to 12" bipod so there was plenty of clearance for the magazines.

I have two-one on my AR 556 Nato 30 rnd mags one for my 1522 22 LR 35 Rnd Mags. Both work fine thoughyou may have to move the bipod back to get clearance.

I put a rail adapter for a Harris bipod on mine. All my other rifles are equipped for the Harris, so it seemed logical just to use the same one on my 15-22.

Another vote for the utg op bipod. I use harris on all of my other guns and
The op is just perfect for the 1522 considering you dont have to purchase a rail adapter it works out of the box. They can be had for around 25 on amazon too. If you like the harris you will like the op functionally they are about 95% identical.

Same. Kind of. I bought a cheapo CAA plastic adapter for the one Harris I use on multiple rifles. It has a push button so you don't need to have allen wrenches handy to remove it. It locks up pretty tight on these out of spec rails we all have.

Have the same one, picked up on cheaper than dirt for $20 and it seems sturdy. only had it out a couple times. seems to be good quality, esp since only being on a .22, and with the stock out it will clear the 25rd mag
