I would like to mount a bipod to my SAI synthetic (plastic) stock. I keep hearing about having to modify the stock a bit to get the various mini rail's to attach properly, plus they aren't exactly cheap (for me at least). I have some machining/fabrication skills and was thinking about fabricating a small steel rail that would bolt underneath the front sling swivel mount (I would purchase slightly longer screws of course to accomodate for the additional rail) and have it extend forward an inch or two. It would need to have a slight taper to fit flush to the stock indent. I would drill and then spot weld a sling stud on the rail for mounting the bipod. I'm confident I could make this quite easily and for near nothing. With some careful finishing it would look very sharp as well. Any thoughts/ideas? Is this a solid mounting point on this stock for a bipod? Thanks!
