MPA chassy swivel stud?

[kyotekiller25]

I'm new to the whole chassy thing. Have a few harris bipods that mount via the old school swivel stud and would like to use them for now instead of buying a new $3-400 bipod, or a $100 rail/arca mount to replace the swivel stud. I just don't know what to buy or get to be able to simply mount the Harris swivel stud type onto this MPA BA chassy. Can someone please post a link or recomend something simple that will work?! Or am I just up a creek and need to get with the new century and get a new mounting system or bipod? I really do like my harris swivel bipods...

Harris to pic rail adapter from GG&G works great. Bolt it to the MPA spigot, attach your Harris bipod, good to go.

Do you have a chassis in mind? I'm wondering if you have M- lock mount available or if you will be attaching to a picatinny rail or Arca rail? One thing I've heard done is drill and tap for a swivel stud.

Looks nice, but looks like it clamps to a rail? This MPA doesn't have a rail or anything for that to clamp to? Just has a bunch of circle holes on the bottom of the forend.

You could try screwing a sling stud in one of the holes with threads, guessing it is a 10-32 thread, MPA could verify.

Another option, get a short pic rail and mount to the threaded holes at the end of the chassis forearm or buy a spigot from MPA and use the GG&G adapter.

That groove along the side, close to the bottom, looks like an Arca rail.

I would try and thread a swivel stud into one of those smaller holes.

Thanks guys. Gonna swing by LGS after work and see if a swivel stud will thread into one of those holes. Going to bring my rifle and bipod with me also, so if that doesn't work, maybe we can find or figure something out that will. Sucks getting old and not being able to keep up with the ever changing technology lol.

Bingo that is a rail...
Called a Rat Rail for a arca setup.
