I would like to eventually buy a quality rest but in the short term is there an adapter I can fit to the rail that would allow me to use my QD picatinny bipod? Thanks Michael
I don’t know of anything but if you could grind the head of a bolt down so that it would fit into the metal channel running under the forearm you could then fasten a small piece of wood to which you could attach a picatiinny mount. That would work. Me if just get a Caldwell bag and use that.
that being said the bipods shown above are really meant to be used as a stand in the field, so you don have to lay your rifle on it side on say the ground, I have one and they are small
so and Anschutz to weaver-picatinny rail, it is a bit pricey but this is what people use for there Atlas bipods
now if you are handy and have the right tools you can make your own by using a flat bottom weaver mount and a piece of 1/2 x 1/8 aluminum stock
you must remove 1/16 inch off both sides and it is a perfect fit for a Anschutz rail drill and screw the weaver rail to the adapter you made and you have your mount for your bipod
I used a router with a milling bit for my cut but a table saw would work with a plywood blade
so that is about all I have for mounting a bipod to a weaver-picatinny mount and to a Anschutz accessory rail
I hope it helps and yes they are the same on the D75
Go to Rapid Air Weapons web site they have a Euro rail to Pic rail adapter that bolts on gun and your done for $35.00 kind of expensive but it is an option. Double check for fit on Euro rail side. Hope this helps. MM
Thank you for the reply’s. All good advise that I appreciate. Feel confident that I could make the adapter up as you have suggested marflow. I have a flat based length of picatinny so I’ll give it a go.
I agree the Accuracy International adapter is to expensive for what it is.
I used to make my own tee nuts for rail accessories until I found these Rectangular Tee Nuts at ACE Hardware. They fit perfectly although you will have to either grind or file the thread boss so it doesn't protrude above the rail, or drill a recess for the boss in the rail accessory. I always drill the recess in order to assure good thread engagement. This shows the fit to the rail of a 300S. They also fit the Anschutz rail.
