Whiskeyfish Posted November 24, 2018 Report Posted November 24, 2018 Mono-pod or Mono-pod Mount for the Gen 2. I'm surprised. Is there anything available, or in the works?
edgecrusher Posted November 24, 2018 Report Posted November 24, 2018 I have this on my gen 1. https://www.accu-shot.com/catalog_new/41-precision-rail-monopod-prm-rail-mount Should work fine for you edit: I’m using it on my PRS.
Whiskeyfish Posted November 24, 2018 Author Report Posted November 24, 2018 The mono-pod itself is a no brainer, it's how to go about mounting it? Best I can come up with is to (maybe) mount a short rail under the rear bottom. That looks like a chore.
Whiskeyfish Posted November 24, 2018 Author Report Posted November 24, 2018 Gen1. That's where my brain has been heading. Atlas apparently, and the bottom of the stock is straight plane, which makes mounting a bit easier. Gen2, not so much I haven't taken the stock apart yet to see what's there in the bottom, but being a 2-piece split, rigidity in mounting comes to mind. In short, WTF?
98Z5V Posted November 24, 2018 Report Posted November 24, 2018 I'd lock that thing up in a mill, plane the bottom perfectly flat, insert some (appropriately sized) Time-Sert into the stock - then mount up a piece of picatinny rail. http://www.timesert.com/
Whiskeyfish Posted November 24, 2018 Author Report Posted November 24, 2018 That was one method I thought of after seeing the short rail offered by Atlas. A couple 10-32 Helicoils, yep. Lock them in with Rockset. I have everything else. I just need a couple inserts.
98Z5V Posted November 24, 2018 Report Posted November 24, 2018 (edited) No helicoil, man. It's shiit. It's a temporary fix. The Time-Sert is a permanent solution. I use Time-Sert on engines and suspension components, that people fuk up. I would never, ever consider using helicoil in those two areas. Edited November 24, 2018 by 98Z5V
Whiskeyfish Posted November 25, 2018 Author Report Posted November 25, 2018 I get what you're saying. The price of the Time-Sert kit, then add in the single slot rail, that's +$100 just to be able to mount the Mono-pod. Screw that. Magpul, YOU SUCK BALLZ. You should have continued on and incorporated the benefit of the Gen1 into the Gen2. Instead you omit it and add a fastening point where it could have went? Squeeze bags are cheap. And right now, so am I!!
