Harris Engineering NO. 2 Flange Nut Hollow Fore-End

I wanted to add a bipod to my Ruger 10/22 with synthetic stock. After watching some YouTube videos I decided to give it a try.The HARRIS bipod adapter #2 went in without stock modification.Works with great with my Cvlife bipod.Good product with a good price.

The product itself is well made and a good idea.Someone else had stated that they used it unmodified in a Ruger 10/22 rifle with a composite stock. Unfortunately after drilling a hole through the stock and attempting to use this product, I found out that this is not correct. The metal receiver/flange/nut or whatever you want to call it is to wide to sit flat inside of a Ruger 10/22 composite stock (near front of rifle). You can technically just tighten it down a lot and use some epoxy, however I found it would cause the Swivel Stud to be slightly crooked from tightening flat receiver against a curved inside of the stock. (the flat area is not wide enough). It wouldn't be a big deal if using for a Rifle Sling, but I was using this stud for a bipod, so I couldn't afford for it not to be level.I ended up using the swivel stud that came with it, a machine bolt nut, and flattening out, trimming and epoxying a thin metal bracket inside of the stock to secure it to. You could technically dremel out a flat area to use the above item, but the material is so thin in the composite stock the last thing you want to do is remove more plastic.

I used this on a S&W M&P Sport II. Third hold from the front (on the bottom obviously - with a Harris Tripod) is where it fit the best & strongest. I attached the bipod & used the included washer to center it in the hole then used Loctite 21425 epoxy to glue in place. I put packaging tape at the ends so I didn't drip in any in unwanted places. I also put a rubber cap over the threaded section to keep the glue off the threaded part. I let it set up over night, then added a second application. I did NOT glue underneath the adapter & plastic fore end of the rifle. after letting everything sit (I'd leveled everything ahead of time & taped it from moving) I again let it set up overnight. Still with the bipod attached, I removed the plastic cap & added a third coating of Loctite 21425 epoxy. After this set up overnight I used a fine abrasive cut off wheel on a Dremel Tool to level the bolt & "nut" center piece. Afterwards, painted the cut surfaces from a small bottle of white epoxy appliance touchup paint that I use for gun sites. I now have a STRONG base, REMOVABLE piece & NO sacrifice in looks. It was inexpensive, everything looks original & I couldn't be happier.

Fits great, easy install

I needed this to mount a Harris type bipod on my H&K SL8. The screw went right into the bottom of the handguard and worked perfectly. The plate shown in the picture wasn't needed.

I purchased this to install a bipod on my Benjamin Maruader .22cal pistol. Take the forearm off, drill a hole for the adapter and screw it on. A 5 minute job that looks professional and is very sturdy with good sized backing plate that comes with the adapter. I mounted a harris bipod to the pistol and works great, very solid. I also mounted a swivel adapter to the stock and can now put a sling on my P-Rod (I purchased "The Outdoor Connection Swivel Bases for BO-5 Detachable Swivels" for the stock). Solid product.

This is the one you need if you have a foregrip on your AR that does have any holes. I installed the forgery, then I put the upper receiver in a vice block and put it in my bench vise, used a level to make sure it was exactly level, tied a string around the barrel, marked where it touched the foregrip to get TDB (top dead bottom), used a square to draw a line back 2" from the end of the foregrip, drilled a hole at the end of that line, inserted this forend adaptor, attached my harris bipod and killed some coyotes!

Received incorrect part. Was not Model No. 2 Flange Nut.Received Model No. 6A Stud.After ordering the Model 6A picture is what comes up for review for order history, however if clicking on picture it takes to item #2 as originally ordered. Came on time within 2 Days!!!Guess I get to waste time now dealing with returns, hopefully one day I'll get the right part else I'll just go to Cabela's. :)
