blueeyes 29 Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 Hi guys need some help or info,I had attached a harris by pod to the wee mans Scimiter,however it has a very flimsy fore end and not much materiel to work with as a result wee man was out with me plinking yesterday and when he flicked the legs down the bipod ripped out,hes gutted but as i said there is nothing to work with and the tube just about touches it,was thinking of a tube clamp but bipods are designed to wedge against the stock or rigidity which he likes any ideas most welcome or has anyone got a tube clamp thanks.

moxy 617 Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 Custom tube band? What's the diameter of the cylinder and what's the clearance between the barrel and cylinder? That's one I made. Took a bit of fettling but not impossible. Quote Link to post
blueeyes 29 Posted August 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 that looks good bud,but I have decided to try and get a thin piece of flat metal for the sling bolt to go through in the back of the fore stock should make it more rigid but not much room tks Quote Link to post
Cedric 132 Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 You could use something like this. Quote Link to post
blueeyes 29 Posted August 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 Would that not touch your barrel with a bipod on it,plus I dont like the idea of the air cylinder taking any pressure which might cause leaks. Quote Link to post
Cedric 132 Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 It doesn't touch the barrel as it is concave on the upper surface. As for pressure on the cylinder - I don't know. It was on the rifle when I got it, never been any issues with leakages though. I don't use it. Quote Link to post
hw59 0 Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 google fx bipod clamp, around £25 got one my cyclone same air tube as the scimitar Quote Link to post
Wildling 520 Posted September 3, 2014 Report Share Posted September 3, 2014 plus I dont like the idea of the air cylinder taking any pressure which might cause leaks. Thats something I've always wondered about myself and its certainly something that would be in the back of my head all the time when using it out in the field. Quote Link to post
