Has anyone been able to mount a bipod on this rifle? In all the videos I have seen I never see anyone using one or even a hole for a bipod. I haven’t gotten my rifle from pyramid air yet but I would hate to think I couldn’t use a bipod with it.

You either have to mount a picatinny rail yourself, or you can buy a mounting system that goes onto the air tank. Utah airguns sells their brands saber tactical bottle/tube clamp that will allow you to mount a bipod. Here the link for the saber tactical clamp https://utahairguns.com/saber-tactical-bottle-clamp-rail-adapter/ . Alternatively some people make a similar 3d printed product, you could probably find one on ebay.

You could drill and mount a sling stud into the forearm of the stock, as well as one in the rear, and then be able to use a sling when desired as well as a Harris style bipod that attaches to sling studs.
Or you can get one of those short picatinny rail sections that you attach with screws.

FX USA sells the bracket that attaches to your air tube as well as a barrel clamp. Ohio Airguns,LLC have them as well. called FX Bipod Clamp cost is $45. Looks like you may be able to attach a sling to it but I don't know if that would be a good idea or not.

Aparks454, take a look at my setup. I researched small bipod mounts and could not find the right curve to match my stock, until I saw the "FX Wildcat Accessory Picatinny Short Rail" and it is exactly what I was looking for.

I mounted it using a dot of Blue Loctite on each screw. Works like a champ.

If I were to use 2L8,s approach I would install threaded brass inserts. Especially if it's on a classic walnut stock.

Thanks everyone for all the great info and tips! This is the exact set up I am going for joekool. Did you use self-tapping hex screws to secure the rail or did you drill completely through and counter sink to use hex screws nuts and washers? I am mounting this to a walnut stock.

Self tapping screws similar to these, did not drill all the way through. Only the depths of the screws or sling stud.

I have a Hatsan FlashPup that comes with this small picatinney rail. If you can find a picture of this gun that shows the bottom of the forend you would agree that the threaded brass insert has a much better appearance than a couple wood screw holes would. Plus it would eliminate any wear to the stock caused by repeated attachment and removal of the rail.

How do you find that bipod? I like the concept and am looking for one at the moment.
