fulltimeshooter Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 Can I put a Harris Bipod on my AAS200? It may seem silly but I have noticed the wood on the forend is a little thin do you recon I could put a Harris on it with-out it being split or broken at all....?!?!?!?! Thanks for reading FTS.

kipper Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 I have fitted a harris pod to my AAS410 today and its fine. the QD stud I used was about 12-15mm deep so measure how mutch wood you have got to play with and then ring your local gun shop up and ask then to measure the depth of the threads on A QD stud. Good luckFTS KIPPER Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNAKEBITE Posted November 9, 2006 Report Share Posted November 9, 2006 Yes you can, do search and you'll find the answer in the few posts that have covered this subject. The AAS410 has a completley different stock design kipper, it is much beefier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batmancaver Posted November 9, 2006 Report Share Posted November 9, 2006 Hi mate If you do fit a bipod bear in mind that it may alter your POI (see my other recent post). I sometime use a shooting stick, a bi-fur pod (http://www.varmintal.com/abifu.htm), and this appears to alter my POI by about 8-10mm at 15m distance - obviously this would be greater at a further distance. Although this would not be a problem if you ONLY ever use your rifle AND the bipod, it may cause you problems if you use the rifle withoud the pod as the POI may be distnctly different.

fulltimeshooter Posted November 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 Pin They told me it wasn't advisable due to the shape of the wood and the woods on the forend being rather thin and their is a possibilitie it may snap or break/chip.

30-6 Posted November 20, 2006 Report Share Posted November 20, 2006 I've fitted slings to a s200 and I beleive a bipod can be used with Uncle Mike's studs as used. Below is an answer I give to another post about slings. "I've recently fitted swivels and slings to a AA s200 and a AA s410 (FAC). Uncle Mike's swivels and RWS slings (can't remember where from but will rumage in the receipts if you want me to ). In both guns I drilled right through the fore-end wood and filled in the excess hole with wood filler, because on the 200 the wood was bulging on the inside, and then applied a couple of coats of coloured varnish to re-seal the wood, (Obviously remove from action before drilling). I also used a 10mm carpenters drill (very carefully), the type that gives a flat finish so as to seat the little plastic washers that come with the swivels. Rub a candle on the threads before starting to screw and work the thread in and out a bit at a time to avoid splitting the wood." Like said in the piece on the 200 the fore-end is thin and when you screw the stud in it starts to bulge the wood inside if going into a blind hole, to overcome this I drilled right through and then filled it back in and sealed it as described. Uncle Mike's swivel studs come in two lengths short for front and long for stock. Just be very careful when you use the "flat finish drill".

30-6 Posted November 23, 2006 Report Share Posted November 23, 2006 If you look in sporting pictures under noisy squirrels started by myself you can see slings on the s200. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
