Q:

Bipod on EDgun Matador???

Fellas,
Would you consider installing a bipod on your EDgun Matador? Or stick to shooting rests? Sand bags?

I put a Magpul short picatinny on my Edgun Long .25 caliber. With a 6″ to 9″ bipod, there wasn’t much that couldn’t be hit at distances that I could clearly see. The younger bucks could really drive tacks with that setup, or from a bench.

I drilled a couple of pilot holes and used short wood screws. Never a problem!

The only recommendation I’d make is use as short a picatinny rail as possible, for your needs. A four slot can hold anything you are generally going to mount on an Edgun, unless you plan on using a side mount for a light, then longer makes sense.

I mounted a bipod on my R3M. A 6″~9″ Harris clone. I use it for bench shooting. I find that with the legs folded it makes a stabilizing base for shooting (off my knee) as well.

If everyone just used the search then we would never learn anything new.

Here is one opinion – see?

Snipper…can you tell us what kind of shooting you favor? From the car, out on the porch, in the forest, on the prairie?

It all makes a big difference in what can be recommended. The forum members range from back yard assassins to long distance shooters….we need to know who should respond.

Vanguard Equalizer 2 QS. You can add some protective pads on you rail. Thanks to that it will be soft in touch.

I like using sticks I found that bipods limit my options A bipod either requires you to get a super long heavy bipod or shoot from the prone position. The bipod also throws the balance of the gun off. For bench shooting I just use bags. I often shoot from the car. It is easy to sneak up on crows that way. Using a rail on the forend of the EDgun would scratch my car. These are the reasons I chose to just use a trigger tripod

This is the one I use

If you do a Search there is a ton of information on installing and using bipods on Edguns.
