Just wondering if anyone uses the bedded gunsmith mounted adapter instead of the normal stud mounted one and there opinions.
I much prefer the flush mounted system that the gunsmith adapter provides but am a bit concerned about the strength of the fore stock under recoil after fitting it. Cheers
Mines great mate
The ones in my hi-tech stocks seem great. Guy who fitted them wouldn't put one in my stug stock however as not enough material to bond to in his opinion. So i guess depends on your stock. Imagine std timber or plastic should be fine as long as there is enough material to bond to.
I have done a few now and successfully bedded them into bell and carson, fierce fury (carbon) and stug stock.
All have been rock solid and I tend to load my bipod up a bit.
I find it hard to believe your stug stock hasn't got enough material to bond with ? The one in my stug is right at the tip of the fore and there is plenty of material for it to bond to.
The flush mount is far superior to the adapter in strength and asthetics.
Post up a pic of your stug stock ?

Sounds like they holding up ok then. I’ve got a bell and Carson stock that I am looking at getting done
If it's the one with the alloy bedding block be aware that the alloy "skeleton" goes almost all the way to the tip of the fore I had to spend a considerable amount of time with a dremel removing alloy from where I drilled the hole for the adapter. Still worth doing.Quote:

Out of curiosity where is everyone getting their flush mounts these days ?
My cousins has fitted gunsmith type adapters to three of my rifles for me. All in laminated stocks. Wonderful neat solution. Just wish I could use this solution on my three Sauer 202.s.

Going to put a Spartan bipod on the block if anybody wants one. No adaptor port though, be a bugger getting it out!
Just melt the epoxy :fire::melt::melt::melt:Quote:
