Your bipod should be facing the other direction

u/NeruLight May 11 '26

Is that to deal with the recoil of .22LR?

u/2016YamR6 May 11 '26

I was told it’s because you put forward pressure on the gun with your shoulder and that would collapse a bipod that’s mounted this way. Wasn’t meant to put anyone down just pointing it out

u/Primary_Judge May 10 '26

That's pure common sense

u/sounoriginal13 May 10 '26

Buddys new, he will figure it out. The fact theres a bipod on it at all should tell ya.

10

u/Outrageous_Lie_979 May 10 '26

“New” but have fired thousands of rounds of tax payer 5.56 from a C7 and C9.

u/sounoriginal13 May 10 '26

Youre welcome ;), to be fair, you mentioned you were new

u/Outrageous_Lie_979 May 11 '26

New in the civilian realm.

u/Sco0basTeVen May 11 '26

They didn’t use bipods in the military?

4

u/iamcorvin nb May 11 '26

Only on the C6/C9 and they were generally pointed towards the rear IIRC but I haven't handled either in a few years now.

u/xmqe May 11 '26

Can't say I'm surprised that our military training is so poorly done that you don't know which way to face a bipod lol

3

u/Outrageous_Lie_979 May 11 '26

I know which way but it’s a .22 and it don’t matter.

$29 Amazon bipod works great and keeps the ProMag 597 mags off the table.

u/Outrageous_Lie_979 May 10 '26

It’s setup like that so it slides into my motorcycle side bag without getting snagged on the legs.

I’m giving zero fucks about other people opinions as well. If I cared deeply I wouldn’t have bought a .22 with an 11.7” barrel and stuck a $300 Vortex on it.

u/Status_Ticket5044 May 11 '26

I have an RF-224 with a Primary Arms LPVO and a 10/22 in a shitty ATI chassis with a Leupold because it's fun, I have crappy eyesight, and I can. Seeing as daddy won't let me have a C7 or handguns, I'll cope ok with ridiculous 22s.

Incidentally, the Adler was surprisingly good at 50 yds the other day I had it outside for the first time. Groups. Not tight, but groups.

u/BigCyanDinosaur May 11 '26

Clearly you care otherwise you wouldn't have posted.

u/DougMacRay617 May 10 '26

Where SKS?

u/Ace_And_Jocelyn1999 May 10 '26

In THIS economy?

u/AsparagusUnhappy5395 May 10 '26

After shooting mine for the first time this weekend, worth it.

8

u/Outrageous_Lie_979 May 11 '26

Don’t care for one. I’d rather spend $$ on a decent 6.5mm, .308, 5.56/.223 and a 590A1

u/sounoriginal13 May 11 '26

They multiply fyi

u/epnk420 May 10 '26

Nice any 10/22 is something a pal owner should have but that one is even better

5

u/NeruLight May 10 '26

Nice score finding a backpacker

3

u/AreaOk6647 May 11 '26

Start stacking ammo and mags

5

u/Top_Importance6216 May 10 '26 edited May 11 '26

Harris style bipod is nice, but backwards on a short barrel .22 is big lol

3

u/Outrageous_Lie_979 May 11 '26

It’s a $29 Amazon bipod. I’m not wasting good money on the Adler. The Vortex will go on a .308 or 6.5mm when I find one I like.

u/adminsys May 10 '26

Lucky you 10/22 backpack. Looking for one but all out of stock. I have the Henry Survival instead

u/Outrageous_Lie_979 May 11 '26

I found this one at Crappy Tire!

u/epnk420 May 10 '26

Not sure what the Adler is but looks like something that shouldn’t be posted online hahahaha

the vapid hahahahas are the icing on this fudd cake ;)

u/epnk420 May 10 '26

So looking at it on Calgary shooting center store it’s a rifle that takes 10/22 and the ruger precision rimfire mags?

2

u/Status_Ticket5044 May 11 '26

My experience.... 0% success rate using genuine 10/22 mags in an RF-224. 100% with Adler OEM mags, 95% using Promag 597s.

1

u/Outrageous_Lie_979 May 10 '26

Adler takes the ProMag 22 round 597 mags.

1

u/epnk420 May 10 '26

I built mine own custom 10/22 but for the price this is looking pretty good, good job!!

1

u/Zealousideal-Hat5814 May 10 '26

Don’t get it. It’s a Turkish 10/22, it sucks I regret my buy. It does not cycle through very well.

1

u/Status_Ticket5044 May 11 '26

Even with the OEM Adler rotary mags? I got one of these last autumn and bought into the myth that 10/22 mags were interchangeable. They are decidedly not. Even the shitty Promag 597s run pretty well with a stovepipe from time to time.

2

u/Zealousideal-Hat5814 May 11 '26

Yes even with that

u/Status_Ticket5044 May 11 '26

Genuinely sorry to hear.
