M14 Bipod adapter

[wce323078]

I just got my second Boyds stock for my M14S and I would like to install a bipod/sling adapter in place of the front swivel.Which one (that we can get with out a lot of trouble here in Canada) is the best.Harris,etc and what are the model# to go with them?Have read a few things which suggest that possible spliting of the forend could be a problem,usually with the usgi fiberglass stock,any suggestions?

I think your best bet would be to talk to fabsports or Smith enterprises . There maybe a chance the doctor could help out .. ill have to let him out of the basement first , hes working on my rifle.

For mine, I bought and installed the Sadlak QD Post Assembly that Fabsports has on their site.

It's pretty rock solid on my USGI birch stock, and there's no sign of the stock splitting.

I would drill and tap a thin steel plate and epoxy it into the inside a relief made in the stock. Place the bipod closer to the mag than swivel. It puts less pressure on the stock, affecting accuracy.

I bought a m14 pic bottom rail that used the same holes as the forward swivel rivets. Put it on...good to go. Boyd's stock has the holes and I had the right length screws .

X2 for the Sadlak above from Fabsports. On my Boyd's, works great and used with a Harris bipod.

You can also go with the Versa-pod unit to its got the rail plus the sling loop an bolts rite in ,I got two of them an they work very well.

Yes the Sadlak is the way to go if you can afford it.
