Using the Tavor Bipod?

[TV-PressPass]

I'm wondering if anyone has used the Tavor Bi-pod setup available from Can Am? This one here.

I've got my Tavor set up right now for the "within 50 yards" kinda play, with the Sparc co-witnessing with the flip up irons and the new sling finally working nicely. But in the summer I'll want it back into gopher pinking mode. Last fall I was shooting "off-ruck" (see how mapgul teaches me?) but now I'm thinking it might be fun to try a forward flipped bipod.

How badly does it screw up your grip to have that thing on there?

And because any Tavor thread should have pretty pictures:

And the sling itself:

You want to use a bipod for shooting at 50 yards? I wouldn't even bother. You gain nothing and loose all of the forward grip. You have to hold the trigger guard.

No man, I want a bi-pod for summer when I put the 1-4 or 3-9 or 4-16 back on there and take it outdoors.

Sorry, read through too quickly. If you're planing to shoot prone at gophers and such, get the bipod.

Keep in mind, gophers are small targets and the offset of the OP's setup will be more of an issue than stability.

Offset as in the height over bore? In theory I've got a ballistic calculator that will help me compensate for that, as long as I don't cant all over the place.

But I've never put it to the test.

I put one one mine...just the stud that screws through the mounting hole on the front grip...easy on ..easy off..... Im surprised nobody has jumped all over you for putting on a laser.... I guess they wore themselves out jumping on mine ... I dont care... I like it

I got this: http://www.zahal.org/products/tavor-picatinny-rail?path_parent=153455
then you can install a grip, bipod, whatever.
Shipping was no issue. hum, looks more expensive then I paid... Yep increase 15$ since 2010!

? what sling is that ?

Lol I was thinking about your adapter jjort! Seems like one of the smaller one's out there.

Mine's just a light, and its actually the smallest surefire weaponlight I could find. Trying to keep things light while I'm still carrying it.

I've looked at the Zahal site before! I keep wanting there to be more on there, but really the Tavor doesn't do a whole lot of customization. That rail is an interesting possibility though. I hadn't realized it was canted to make it level.

The sling is an Urban ERT sling. Cost me $55 and came with all kinds of different attachments. Probably took me 2 days to discover the setup you see there though.
