The title says it all. Would a flush cup on a badger rail hold a bipod? Or is that too much pressure?

The flush cup would hold it, but I would think there would be too much slop in the flush cup. The bipod would move around too much. How would you mount a bipod in the flush cup? What set up are you looking at?

I was considering getting the insert with the sling stud and just mounting it to the stud. I currently have an adapter on it that mounts to the rail and the bipod mounts to it. I do not like that set up but it's because the adapter is too short and the bipod rocks.

I'm with Chad...I think it would hold it but I don't think you would like the stability. I'd either do it or have someone add a rail or use a sling stud.

It does have a rail with a flush cup in it. That's what I'm trying to figure out. The best way to mount the bipod to it.

I have this rail on the manners.



I was considering using this adapter to mount the bipod into the flush cup instead of a larger rail adapter.

I'm not familiar with that kind of set up. But I'd say try it and see.

I did some more research and badger makes a perfect quick connect that low profile designed just for what I'm wanting. Probably everybody knew about them but me. So I'm going this route.

Sorry, I didn't understand what you were asking...you're right.

That flush cup in the rail is for a sling not the bi-pod.

I run an atlas and it comes with a QDM like this one: http://www.erathr3.com/collections/weapo...CFQIRaQodflMAwg

For a Harris adapter...you're on the right track, I like a lever QDM but what you bought will work fine.

Let us know how it works out, new methods are always interesting.
