542-1 Bipod. Where???

[CreamySmooth]

Does anyone have an idea who has a Famae 542-1 bipod? Just bought the gun and I'd like the bipod to go with it. Any dealers or places? I've checked CSC, Tactical Imports and I'm checking with ERE but they don't list it so I can't see it. Any ideas?

It's garbage.

Better option is to mount a small piece of rail (or even a sling stud - Harris AR15 adapter would work) into the forend and use a good bipod. The one for the 542 is just a stamped piece of steel... not adjustable, and really not that nice.

This. They are not good. They are also overpriced for what they are.

Well that's good to know. I mainly wanted it as it fits flush for hunting instead of having to carry a bulky standard bipod. Can you gentleman enlighten me on the price of them?
