bi-pod attachment?

[ID#5]

I really like my 3Gun rifle
It has an aluminium free float handguard.

I'd like to have the option of putting a bipod on it and shoot it in something other than 3Gun, like Patrol Shoots, etc.

Would adding a traditional attachment stud, that a Harris bi-pod would mount on affect anything as far as shooting goes for 3Gun? hanging up on something, or something I'm not thinking about?  I know putting a bipod on will bump me into Open.

or, would a picatinny type bipod mount be the better way to go?

Stud should work fine just make sure it doesn't screw in to far and touch

There is my sling stud. I use it to attach a Harris bi-pod.
I also use it as an index point in my grip.

Index point = one more thing to worry about

Beats getting your bugger hooker out over the ports in the comp....

I should not have to worry about the comp, I'm running a 20 inch barrel

Should you used the nut also to attach?


any recomendations on which 'smith to use?
or is so easy to do that I can't screw up my rifle?


my last project was not as professionally done as if I had paid a professional do it........
The end result was functional but pegged out 'The Ugly Meter'
