Bergara sling stud

[hvychev77]

I just bought a Bergara b-14 ridge wilderness. It only has one sling stud up front. Are there options/accessories that i can buy to have a sling + bipod attached? I really do not want to drill into the stock and put a second stud in. Thanks in advance!! Cheers!!

Many bipods (for example, Harris) that are designed to be attached to a sling stud, have a pass-through mounting option for the sling. That is, there's an extended stud that's part of the bipod, so that the sling can be attached.

My personal solution (on a Remington 700, with H-S Precision stock) is a rail from Seekins Precision. This has an attachment point for the sling. (You might have to drill an additional hole.)



Here is an Israeli-made Command Arms bipod mounted on the rail. I like this because it's streamlined, and has no external springs. (The feet are not original to the bipod. The original ones are serrated rubber. The legs come in various lengths. These are short ones.)

I drilled mine, no big deal, but, as posted, a Harris will attach to a single stud

Why do you feel averse to drilling the stock for another stud?

As mentioned, Harris pods have sling mounts. There are also swivel stud to picatinny adapters which have swivel ports on them as well, but personally, I’m just not a fan.

Agreed, I drilled my synthetic B-14R stock, tapped the holes, and added an arca rail.
