I have decided to add a Harris bipod to my SA M1A (walnut stock). I have other rifles with VersaPod bipods and others with their original H&K bipods, but this will be my first Harris, and I have three questions:
(1) Which Harris bipod do you prefer - swivel (S) or not?
(2) How about notched or smooth legs?
(FWIW, the VersaPods I have allow tilt and swivel, have notched legs, and work fine for me.)
I have read various approaches to mounting the bipod (adaptors, existing hole or new hole, etc.), but I can't remember whether mounting it on the forward hole of the swivel mount plate was considered.
(3) Would it be OK to drill out the forward-most of the two rivets that hold the sling swivel plate and drill (as necessary) to mount the stud for the bipod there?
Thanks -
