Monopod for PRS Gen 3?

[Knuckledragger]

Hope this is in the right section.  If not, please move it and show me the err of my ways, oh 308AR modgods. 
  I’ve been scouring the interwebs for a monopod that will work with the PRS Gen 3. Sadly, it’s been a mostly fruitless endeavor. I’ve yet to find either a variant that can direct attach to MLOK or one that will work with the rail (is really a rail?) under the MLOK cover. Closest I’ve found is Sage International’s PMRI-MR/G3

Not a bad piece of kit at all, but I’m trying to find some direct attachment solution.

Anyone found something better?

Just slap an M-LOK rail section on the bottom of that thing, and mount up an AccuShot Monopod.

You could even mount up the MagPul M-Lok Sling Stud, and use that AccuShot sling-stud-mounted mono...

I've used the AccuShot monopod with great success. I've always just used the sling stud mount version, but recently purchased a BT13-QK (rail-mount, 4.75"-5.65") for my CSASS rifle. As it turns out, I can't estimate height for sh­­ìt, and what I have is too short for what I need. [EDIT: Waiting for the peanut gallery to chime in here...]

If that height range will work for you, I'll make you a deal. I'd rather hook you up than go through the returns process for OpticsPlanet/DVOR at this point.

Only test fitted, never fielded. Original packaging is long gone. I don't have a pic of mine handy, but here's a link to the product page.

I did the height estimate as it’s described on Accu-shot’s site. At minimum extension on my bipod and level, it needs about 5”. At full bipod extension and level, it needs 8”. 
  This might work..... 🤔

Update: Big thank you to @COBrien for hooking me up. It works great on my setup. I’m still going to try to get that piece from SAGE Int’l, as it feels like it wanders a lot when adjusting due to the angle.

No problem at all, brother!

I've run the sling stud-mounted version on an A2 stock, and the slight angle that's left does make it want to walk a bit. I tend to use the monopod as a grip for my support hand, while letting the monopod support the weight of the rifle.
