A Cold, Snowy Saturday Project

Good to see that you have given her a good home.

My TIGGER loves Salmon but it’s the grains “fillers” that she is allergic to. She’s also very picky although weighing in at 10 pounds she eats well except when she’s not feeling well with those soars.
Can you imagine dealing with a soar on your face like this?

Your original post was dated 3/12/22, which was a cold, snowy day here as well. The day before, Friday 3/11/22, was absolutely gorgeous with a beautiful sunny day…high in the sixties!

I work part time in the morning, after which I had an errand to run. Got the errand done and as the next day would be terrible, I decided to drive up to Sportsman’s Warehouse to pick up some more ammo and see if they had an XD9 available. Sure enough, they had one available which subsequently followed me home!

You have a beautiful kitty! Take good care of her.

So I’m working on my M1A, the first change was the forearm end sling loop change, I’ve been thinking about adding a bipod but didn’t want to attach it to the gas piston tube and following a thread on the forum about a Picatinny rail sling combo I purchased one from Brownells,

At first I thought I would have to modify the stock but after removing what was there it worked out very well. View attachment 25559
The next add on was a butt stock comb riser kit View attachment 25560
Putting this on was a PITA but I was determined, I then had to choose a pad to go under the cover. View attachment 25561
I know I will be making adjustments during my next range trip and may also go with a thinner pad, it comes with 6 pads of different thicknesses.

So now that this is done I would like to ask for some recommendations on Bipods, I see that Springfield is offering two different models and I’ve been doing some research and there are a ton of different types. My price range is between $150-200 dollars.
Thank you in advance.

Of course during this work I was monitored by the boss.

Did you find a bipod you settled in on ?

Yes I picked up a Caldwell at Cabela’s it’s not a notch adjustment type but has strong twist locking and short legs.

I found that it swiveled and pivoted to easy so I took it apart and cleaned out the oil in the ball mechanism and now it still moves but not so loosely after tightening it down.
