Will palmer Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 dose anyone know what this part is called and where I can buy one? The part the bipod sits in. If anyone has one i have money waiting.
Sako Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 Looks like you have a swivel point just on the underneath of the foregrip there, any decent bipod will fix to that without issue, e.g. Harris type. Edit, just realised that's the part you say is broken, it's called a sling/swivel stud mate.

Will palmer Posted March 25, 2014 Author Posted March 25, 2014 It's this bit that's has broke so I need that peice
Supporters Liam Porter Posted March 25, 2014 Supporters Posted March 25, 2014 I don't think you can just buy that bit, unless someone is selling a broken down L96, you may actually end up having to buy a whole stock second hand from someone. Mine's broken too, which is quite annoying as I'm now stuck with the crappy stock tri-rail and bipod. If you do manage to find what you're looking for, post here or let me know please, and I'll do the same if I find it.
Supporters Ian_Gere Posted March 31, 2014 Supporters Posted March 31, 2014 You could go with a barrel mounted bipod like this or this.
Supporters Liam Porter Posted March 31, 2014 Supporters Posted March 31, 2014 You could go with a barrel mounted bipod like this or this. Problem with those on an L96 is the way the barrel is attached to the stock. It's attached with just two screws, and they're quite far back, so putting the weight of the gun on the barrel past the stock will cause it to lift up from the receiver slightly, and the very slight movement of it puts your sights out and makes shots go quite a bit higher than you'd expect. I had this problem when I lost my bi-pod and spent a couple of games resting the barrel on logs etc. for support.
Sako Posted March 31, 2014 Posted March 31, 2014 What material is your stock/area where your current swivel is fitted, it shouldn't be difficult to pilot drill and screw in a new swivel stud close to your broken one, then fit your bipod to that, as the studs are self tapping. Should be an easy fix, even if you need to play with epoxy to secure. http://www.ronniesunshines.com/jack-pyke-swivel-stud-screws.html
