Hello fellow SVD owners!

I'll first start that I own an Echo1 CSR. In the past I've used the proprietary SVD clamp on bipods available at most airsoft retailers. However, I like many of you I'm sure, find that these are fairly clunky and definitely far heavier than I care for. (Considering there lack of most modern bipod features.)

I'd love to use something like a smaller Harris bipod for quick and easy deployment, so I'm weighing my options.

The first of which is a bipod adapter. Most of these clamp on in the standard area in front of the magwell. However, these are usually homemade, or cost an arm and a leg. ($200-400) Are there any airsoft replicas of these out there?

Here are some example shots of the real-steel variety. Some are quiet beautifully made:




My other option is to mount a rail or Harris adapter in the underside of my polymer foregrip, which is tricky as it splits vertically for battery access, and might crack under pressure. I have seen this done however, so are there any of you that have examples? I've seen OB1 of team Instigators do such a mod to his, but I question how he swapped batteries with it integrated.

I do notice that he was using a peq box on the side, so he possibly moved his battery to the box and then kept the foregrip together with his bipod through those ports?

Something like this? AirsoftPro RIS Bipod Adapter SVD - Airsoftshop

I don't know if something similar is sold in the US though.

I like #3, and 4 seems a little hard to see on my phone. All I did was buy a mossburg rail, I believe for a 500. If I remember correctly, it had the exact curve to mount on the front of the handguard. Also, currently on my M14, I have bipod legs that mount on the side of the hand guard via rails. Not as cool as the King Arms version, but still cool.
