Hi...first real post here. The introduction post doesn't really count right?
Anyway...In December my father talked me into my first build…a pieced together AR-15 clone. I really like it as it shoots well with no malfunctions in just about 400 rounds now, and good groups if I use the right ammo, many 5 shot groups under 1 MOA, and one 1/2 MOA at 260 yards.
Here’s my dilemma. I’ve got a Hogue free-float fore end and a 4-rail gas block on my rifle and I’d like to get my Harris bipod installed. Does anyone have any idea on how I can get a bipod on this rifle? FWIW…I called YHM and got dimensions of their bipod adapter for picatinny rails and it’s too long to fit on the gas block. Plus, wouldn’t it defeat the purpose of the free-float by mounting a bipod on the barrel?
