I got the mount last week and was able to test it yesterday using a GG&G harris bipod rail adapter and a Harris 6-9" swivel bipod. Solid. That's about the best way to describe it. No wobble. I actually enjoyed shooting the drag and not worrying if my rest I was using was putting any pressure on the barrel. While standing the folded bipod legs actually give you a stable grip that doesn't put any pressure on the hand guards either. I also tried it leaning across a fence on the bipod legs and it was a great rest.
We used a bolt on 1913 rail for this one, to make things faster for testing. The rail was left long so I could try different bipod positions. The extended portion may be cut off later after I shoot with it some more. It'll just depend on how it feels in different spots.
I am also going to try shooting with a 3-6" Harris in april to see how I like it. This current one is too tall for prone shooting when combined with the mount distance.
This will be hard anodized sometime next week now that I know the mount itself is stable on the rifle receiver. It didn't shift at all. One thing I really appreciate them doing was putting a radius on all of the edges. There isn't one sharp contact point.
I don't know if this shop would have the time to do a run of these for sale, but I will be asking that, and what pricing would be if others are interested. I am also going to see how hard it would be to do future units with the rail simply machined into the mount to cut down on parts and screws used to attach a bipod.
Now if only I could make friends with a poly stock maker to get us US made Synthetic drag stocks without needing Lube to buy one.
