    I must be back to front - so you are saying a Harris bipod goes on so the the legs fold down the stock rather than under the barrel?? Confused.

    The pic of the CZ back one page has the bipod on backwards, it is set so the legs fold back under the stock. It should be set so the lags go under the barrel.

    Not a new toy, but the 20 round mag is.



    Molot Vepr in .308Win, so you can imagine the fun it is to source mags larger than 5 rounds.
    Special order with the lovely folks at Brownells (real good price too). Ordered two Promags initially, as Promags reputation precedes them.
    After 17 week wait, they finally arrived.

    As expected with Promag, hours of fitting required to: A - make then fit the mag well, B - remove all the sharp edges off everything, to save my fingers and palms.
    Cycles well with snap caps, will find out if they do with the real thing this Sunday.
    If all goes to plan, I'll get another permit and then order some more.
    Welcome to Sako club.

    Ah, could've sworn I saw somebody suggesting it is the other way round too. Good to know.

    What's with the pig. The little fecker has followed you around for far too long.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    He used the pig because he was to scared to post with a bipod attached... to avoid the embarrassment of being told he has it mounted backwards... but then, is the pig sitting backwards....?

    Yeah like those old vias ( unsure of spelling)
    Brakes. The front ones go the other way so it's all a bit weird.
